HOME TRUTHS THE PROPERTY Detached new build LOCATION Dallas, Texas ROOMS Sitting room, dining room, kitchen-diner, pantry, study, cloakroom, conservatory, recreation room, five bedrooms (all en suite) PURCHASED 2019 PREVIOUS PROPERTY 'We moved here from a traditional detached in Minnesota,' says Jacki.

Your youngest child leaving home to go to university is inevitably a time of mixed emotions - missing the bustle of having the children around while relishing the sense of rediscovered freedom. And so it was for Jacki and Brad Winges, who decided to use this time as an opportunity to restyle the home they had recently moved into. Unlike their previous period home, this is a new property, but it still has traditional features and proportions. We were attracted to this place because of its sense of space and also the abundance of windows, giving it a light, open feel,' says Jacki.
