About this home

Welcome to 2436 Big Sky Trail - an architectural retreat set beneath wide North Texas skies. Designed by award winning architect Max Levy, this Prairie style home rests on an ag exempt, fully fenced 4.65 ac property and has been featured on HGTV and in multiple design publications. Built in 1999 and spanning 2,113 SF, the 3BD, 3BA residence was thoughtfully composed to complement the surrounding landscape. Pella Architect Series windows and doors frame long views of pasture and sky, creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. The lower level is designed for gathering, bringing the dining, living, and kitchen areas together in an open layout. Stained concrete floors run throughout the main level. The kitchen features crisp white cabinetry with generous storage, a Viking cooktop, and stainless steel appliances. The fireplace anchors the living area and creates a natural gathering point. Upstairs, bedrooms are arranged as individual suites, offering privacy while maintaining the home's architectural character. The screened in porch with its own fireplace extends the living space outdoors and provides a relaxed setting to enjoy the land year round. Beyond the main residence, the property offers additional flexibility. A 312 SF ADU provides space for guests, a studio, or private office with shiplap walls, full cell insulation, mini split HVAC, and custom door and window detailing. The four stall barn includes a tack room, wash bay, electrical, and lighting. Animal shelters, dog run, garden space, and fire pit enhance the usability of the land. Ponder offers expansive country living just northwest of Denton while remaining within convenient reach of Dallas and DFW Airport. The adjoining 5.26 ac lot is also available for purchase at $395,000 and features full perimeter no climb fencing with electricity and water, offering the opportunity to expand to a combined 9.91 ac, build a custom home, or preserve greater privacy.
