Dazzling One Story Home in Frisco, Texas

4903 Oak Knoll in Starwood - Frisco - This stunning, Bob Bobbitt Custom Home, was designed for great living as well as entertaining. Great attention to detail went into the planning and building of this one story nearly 4200 square foot masterpiece residence. Bob Bobbitt is well-known for the superior finish out of his homes, and in this situation, he surpassed even his own expectations.



The home site is at one of the most prestigious locations in perhaps the most prominent neighborhood in all far North Dallas. Walk to the Starwood Community Center for a meeting with friends or a quick workout. Take a stroll along Stewart’s Creek and enjoy the magnificent Spanish Oaks.

When you approach the home you will be impressed with the stone, cast stone, and brick façade. The home is reminiscent of much larger homes, and in fact, viewing this home from the front gives you the feeling that it is much larger than 4200 square feet. This is a result of the unique yet practical floor plan that is arranged in a “C” shape to maximize the exterior space.

The attractive foyer provides panoramic views of marvelous rooms for you to enjoy. The large formal dining room with columns and arches hints at the quiet and comfortable feeling of this home. The super large family room which is almost 21’ by 21’ includes extras like a marvelous double stack cast stone fireplace and rich built-ins. The crown molding and special features of this room will make you relax, even after a stressful day. Sit and enjoy for a moment. This will allow you to unwind and open the senses for the feast to follow.

The “Chef’s Delight” kitchen includes lots of storage and built-ins. The appliance package is commensurate with a luxury home in Starwood. There was no “cutting of corners” in this home as is typical for a Bob Bobbitt masterpiece. There are upgrades everywhere, and of course granite and stainless steel and special wood trim. An additional prep sink in the island, as well as a wine refrigerator and decorative display space are great additions.

Just outside you will find a spacious covered patio with all the extras for a fabulous outdoor living space. Robert Browning wrote, “I trust in nature for the stable laws of beauty.” This is truly the case in this magnificent back yard living environment. Landscaping is the only design area that is by nature intended to evolve over time.

The owner’s personal landscape in this home has aged well and certainly evolved to create an atmosphere for living outdoors. Enjoy great views of the splendid pool, spa, and lush landscape from numerous rooms.

The outdoor kitchen provides opportunities for parties and family fun. The corner lot allows for a back yard experience that is private and happily doesn’t include views of other properties.
The master bedroom is a “Kings Domain” and certainly “has it all.” Great window views with superior window treatments combine with moldings and ceiling treatments that inspire a poet to greatness. The luxurious master bath and oversized closets round out the central rooms for great living and enjoying the fruits of your labor.

The extra bedrooms were built in anticipation of visitors and friends staying over for a spell. Be careful however, they may not want to leave after getting settled in to a home like this.
There are few homes in Starwood that are as special as this one. One story homes of this quality are difficult to find. Who needs more space when the space you have is so perfectly planned. “A beautifully designed, meticulously planned residence becomes a home when you apply your personality and style.” Imagine the possibilities…
