We’ve shown you the exterior. We’ve walked you through the living spaces. Now let’s talk about the kitchen, butler’s pantry, and w**e room at 3368 Dorado Beach.

One of our favorite things about this Thomas Cusick Custom Homes | Dallas Home Builder Signature Series residence is how much thought went into the spaces where people naturally gather.

Starting with the kitchen, it strikes a beautiful balance between light finishes and warm wood details. The custom walnut range hood immediately catches your attention, with its chevron pattern adding character against the white cabinetry and marble countertops.

The oversized island is another standout. With a richly veined dark stone countertop, warm wood base, and seating for four, it’s the kind of space that quickly becomes the center of everything. Morning coffee, conversations while dinner is cooking, or friends gathering around before heading out to the patio.

And there’s plenty of functionality behind the design. A professional-grade 48-inch gas range, 63-inch refrigerator/freezer combination, generous counter space, and thoughtfully planned storage make this kitchen just as practical as it is beautiful.

Through the arched doorway, the butler’s pantry continues the attention to detail with extensive white cabinetry, marble countertops, brass hardware, and a softly illuminated hexagon tile backsplash.

Then there’s the custom bar and w**e room, which might be one of the most memorable spaces in the home.

The dark cabinetry and textured walls create a completely different atmosphere, while the backlit Cristallo w**e display adds a warm golden glow. It strikes a striking contrast with the bright kitchen and beautifully shows how each space in this home has its own personality.

One more look back at the open house at 3368 Dorado Beach.

Yesterday we shared the people and energy that made our open house such a good night. Today we wanted to give the house a little more attention, because it deserves it.

3368 Dorado Beach is a Thomas Cusick Custom Homes | Dallas Home Builder Signature Series residence offering 5 bedrooms, 5 full baths, 2 half baths, 4,656 square feet, and a 3-car garage, currently listed for $2,299,000.

Throughout the house, you’ll find the kind of details that are easy to appreciate in photos but even better in person: vaulted ceilings, natural woodwork, hardwood floors, designer lighting, walnut cabinetry, marble surfaces, a custom bar, and two fireplaces. There’s also a whole-home water filtration system, walk-in pantry, multiple en-suite bedrooms, and a golf-cart garage.

And then there’s the setting.

The home sits directly on the golf course Brookhaven Country Club, with the backyard and covered patio opening toward that view. During the open house, it became one of the most-used parts of the property—which tells you quite a bit about what living here could look like.

That’s what we love about hosting events like this. You get beyond the square footage and feature list and actually see how a home feels when people are in it.

Thanks again to everyone who came out, helped us put the night together, and spent time with us at Dorado Beach.

This one was a lot of fun.

This is what “Live Local” looks like to us.

A beautiful house, doors wide open, a kitchen full of conversations, people meeting each other for the first time, familiar faces catching up, kids heading straight for the backyard, and everyone taking a few minutes to slow down and enjoy the evening.

Our open house at 3368 Dorado Beach was a good one.
We hosted the event inside this Thomas Cusick Custom Homes | Dallas Home Builder Signature Series residence in Farmers Branch Brookhaven Country Club , and the home couldn’t have been a better setting. At 4,656 square feet, there was plenty of room for everyone to spread out, but most people still ended up gathering around the kitchen, living areas, and outdoor space overlooking the golf course.

And we can’t blame them.

The kitchen has rich walnut cabinetry, marble countertops, professional-grade appliances, a custom bar, and an illuminated Cristallo w**e display. Open the home toward the back and the setting changes completely, with a covered outdoor living area, fireplace, built-in grill, and the golf course just beyond the yard.

Good food, cold drinks, a great house, and even better people.

Thank you to everyone who showed up and made the evening what it was. These first 20 photos are only part of the story.

From the entry to the golf-course views, 3368 Dorado Beach, a Thomas Cusick Custom Homes | Dallas Home Builder Signature Series home, was designed around moments that make you stop and look twice.

The experience begins with a series of graceful arches stretching through the entry hall, creating depth while connecting the different spaces of the home. Warm hardwood flooring runs beneath them, balancing the clean walls and giving the architecture a more relaxed feel.

In the living room, a textured fireplace and natural wood mantel become the focal point on one side, while expansive black-framed sliding doors open the opposite side of the room to the outdoors. Beyond them, the covered patio gives way to an unobstructed view across the golf course.

The dining room carries that same attention to proportion and material. A dramatic vaulted ceiling finished in wood brings warmth overhead, while an arched exterior door and oversized windows frame the greenery beyond.
It’s a home where the architecture and the setting work together, and these rooms show that especially well.

JUST LISTED | 3368 Dorado Beach

You don’t need to see the interior to know this isn’t a typical new build. The brick façade, steep rooflines, dark architectural accents, arched steel-and-glass entry, and natural wood garage doors give 3368 Dorado Beach a sense of character from day one, and that same attention to detail carries throughout the home.

Inside, this Thomas Cusick Custom Homes | Dallas Home Builder Signature Series residence offers 4,656 square feet of living space, with 5 bedrooms, 5 full baths, 2 half baths, and a 3-car garage. Walnut cabinetry and marble countertops anchor the kitchen, alongside a 48-inch professional gas range, 63-inch refrigerator/freezer combination, oversized island, butler’s pantry, and walk-in pantry.

The custom bar and illuminated Cristallo w**e display add another layer to the entertaining spaces, while vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, designer lighting, two fireplaces, multiple en-suite bedrooms, and an upstairs bonus room give the rest of the home plenty of its own personality.

Outside, the property sits on a 10,410-square-foot golf-course lot with an outdoor grill and built-in barbecue setup.

This is what the Thomas Cusick Signature Series is all about, taking the things that make a custom home special and carrying them through every part of the design.

Tax rebates can get confusing, so here’s what you actually need to know about 14540 Tamerisk Lane. This property is tied to Farmers Branch’s Demo/Rebuild Program, with a seven-year rebate on City property taxes based on the increase from the original home’s improvement value to the new home’s improvement value; land is not included in that calculation.

That’s an incentive connected to this specific property, not simply a general tax break available on every new build in Farmers Branch. If you’re considering this home, it’s a detail you definitely want to understand before closing.

Have questions about how the rebate works? Send us a message, and we’ll walk you through it.
