The Old Preston Hollow Estate, or Theme Park, That Has It All - 5323 Park Lane in Preston Hollow, Dallas, Texas

Sold in 2009 to energy mogul Kelcy Warren, CEO of Energy Transfer Partners, this incredible Old Preston Hollow estate located at 5323 Park Lane has some crazy amenities.

The Dallas Central Appraisal District values the estate at $25 million even.  In total, the behemoth home and surrounding grounds include 26,260 sq. feet!  That is roughly half the size of an average Wal-Mart store!  Built in 1992, the estate formerly belonged to software guru Larry Lacerte.  Some of the amenities included in this theme park estate are:

-a tennis court
-a racquetball court
-exercise room with locker rooms
-natatorium encompassed Olympic swimming pool
-private lake
-pond with $1 mil worth of fish
-baseball diamond
-gazebo
-greenhouse
-bowling alley
-tasting room
-conservatory
-large playground
-6 bedrooms
-10 baths
-10 fireplaces
-large outdoor gathering area attached to porch
-large doghouse
-parking area on west side of estate
-basement

Wowsa.  I think it's a first - an estate with its own baseball field.  Brilliant.

It is also reported that the Lacerte's used their amenity-affluent home to host charity events and parties.  They entertained former Presidents and Senators - even Prince Edward.
