If the Bushes are happy to live further out of downtown Dallas, agents point to Preston Hollow and Bluffview as the neighborhoods they should consider. Before becoming governor, when Bush worked as an owner of the Texas Rangers, the family lived in a one-story fieldstone house in Preston Hollow, a wealthy neighborhood northwest of the city. (Other residents include Mark Cuban and Roger Staubach.) It's familiar territory and also a place where the Bushes might get enough land to create a walled property, which could make life easier for their security detail. The same is true at Bluffview, another upscale neighborhood farther from the city with rolling terrain (it was once a dairy farm) where buyers get slightly more for their money.
Dave Perry-Miller, a Dallas broker with an office in Preston Center who specializes in upscale properties, says he has two properties in the $3 million to $6 million range that aren't listed on the open market but would be quite suitable for the Bushes. For that money in Preston Hollow, he says, buyers would find properties ranging from an acre to an acre and a half, with a house ranging in size from 8,000 square feet to 12,000 square feet. "If what they've lived in in the past is any guide to the future, [they'd want] a property that's handsome and attractive but not ostentatious," Perry-Miller says.
Seale pointed to three suitable properties in Preston Hollow and Bluffview ranging in price from $3.29 million to $4.995 million. NEWSWEEK's favorite is the cheapest of the trio, located at 5140 Seneca Drive. It features four bedrooms, four full (and two half) baths and a three-car garage. It's situated on 1.9 acres down a tree-lined driveway that offers privacy and protection. It has a pool, a chain-link fence and a game room in its 6,084 square feet, but most importantly, it has the one feature that the 43rd president will absolutely demand in his next home: an exercise room.
