Cole Luxury Homes has teamed up with local companies to build a 5,900 square foot home in Colleyville, Texas to benefit the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation. Local business leaders joined Texas Rangers representatives, city officials and area residents Tuesday, June 11, to break ground on the $1.3 million project.
“We are in the business of building dream homes,” said Chuck Cole, founder and president of Cole Luxury Homes. “I get great joy watching someone’s dream come true, but I also have a tremendous desire to give back to our community. Building the Grand Slam Home and then donating all the proceeds to the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation is a great way to achieve both purposes.”
The Tudor style two-story home will feature a wine gallery, a library with fireplace and bar, reading nook, outdoor living area with kitchen, large pantry and prep kitchen, a sunken courtyard, a master retreat, a bonus room, four bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and a four-car garage located on nearly a half acre. The home will be located in a Colleyville community at 6712 Westmont Drive.
Randy White Real Estate Services will represent the home, which will be sold upon its completion in early 2014. Cole Luxury Homes, Randy White Real Estate, First National Bank, and Designs by K are donating their services for the Grand Slam Home.
“We are so appreciative of all our partners in the Grand Slam Home,” commented Jim Sundberg, president of the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation. “This is going to be a beautiful home and we are thankful that the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation was chosen as the beneficiary for the project. The proceeds from this project will go a long way to help children in our community.”
Park Place Dealerships is supporting this endeavor and initially connected Cole Luxury Homes with the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation.
“Chuck has been a great client of Park Place and he mentioned this project to us,” remarked Rob Sumner, director of marketing at Park Place Dealerships. “Knowing our company is very involved in the community, he asked our advice about charities he should consider as the beneficiary. We highly recommended the Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation because of their track record helping kids.”
More than 80 people attended the event at the site of the future home. Le' Popcorn and Candy brought a selection of delectable gourmet popcorn to provide the perfect treat for the groundbreaking. Colleyville's LeSara Cupcake Bar offered guests cake pops decorated as Texas Rangers branded baseballs.
The Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation is dedicated to improving the lives of children in need within our community by providing funding for youth in crisis, youth health initiatives, baseball programs, and youth education.
