One Full Acre, Five Bedrooms, and a Backyard That Earns Its Own Description: 1611 Mustang Ct in Cedar Hill, TX
What luxury homes are available in Cedar Hill, TX's Lake Ridge community?
1611 Mustang Court is a 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom estate in Cedar Hill's Lake Ridge at Joe Pool Lake, listed at $697,000. At 3,915 sq ft on a full-acre cul-de-sac lot, it combines resort-caliber outdoor living with high-end interior finishes in one of southern DFW's most established lake communities.
There Are Estate Homes, and Then There Are Estates
In the $700K range across the southern DFW Metroplex, you have options. But most of those options give you square footage in a subdivision where the houses are 20 feet apart and the backyard is an afterthought.
1611 Mustang Court is something different. A full acre. A cul-de-sac. Hardwood floors throughout the entire home. A primary suite with its own fireplace. A rear yard with a cedar gazebo, a covered patio, a second-story balcony, and raised garden beds. And all of it sits inside Lake Ridge at Joe Pool Lake, one of the most coveted communities in Cedar Hill, Texas.
Here's what you're actually looking at.

What Makes This Home Different
The Entry Sets the Tone
Walk in and you're greeted by a two-story rotunda entry with a curved staircase and wrought iron balusters. That's not a standard builder feature. It's the kind of detail that signals how the rest of the home was designed and finished. From that entry, you get hardwood floors in every direction — no carpet, no transitions, no exceptions. Hardwood throughout the ENTIRE home, both floors.
A Primary Suite That Functions Like a Private Wing
The first-floor primary suite has a stone fireplace. Let that land for a second. Not just a nice bathroom or a walk-in closet — those are here too — but a stone fireplace as an anchor feature in the bedroom. Add to that a tray ceiling, a private patio door, and a spa-caliber bathroom with dual oak vanities, a built-in makeup vanity, a walk-in shower, a garden tub, and a walk-in closet with full-perimeter built-in shelving. This is a primary suite that competes with properties at a significantly higher price point.
First Floor Flexibility: Three Bedrooms and Three Full Bathrooms Down
This layout is rare. Three bedrooms and three full bathrooms on the main level gives you real flexibility — multi-generational living, a dedicated guest wing, or a home office situation that doesn't require anyone to share a bathroom. The in-law arrangement listed in the features isn't just a description; it's a functional reality with this floor plan.
The Kitchen Is Built to Be Used
Granite countertops, travertine tile backsplash, a center island, Whirlpool oven, built-in microwave (replaced 2022), and a stainless dishwasher. The HUGE walk-in pantry is tucked off the kitchen. The oversized utility room doubles as a butler's pantry with upper cabinetry, open shelving, and additional prep and storage space. This is a kitchen that was designed for actual cooking and entertaining — not just staging photos.
Upstairs: A Second Living Area and a Balcony With Open Views
The second floor has two additional bedrooms connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, plus a spacious second living area that opens directly to a COVERED REAR BALCONY. You're looking out over the backyard and the mature landscaping that surrounds this full-acre lot. It's the kind of secondary living space that becomes the room everyone ends up in.
The Backyard Is a Full Lifestyle
One acre on a cul-de-sac in Cedar Hill means you have real space. This backyard delivers: a cedar gazebo (under a year old), an oversized covered back patio, raised garden beds, and mature landscaping front and back. The extended sprinkler system keeps all of it maintained. The driveway has been extended for additional parking. An electric gate secures the rear-facing three-car garage.
This isn't a yard you look at. It's a yard you use.
Recent Updates Worth Noting
This is a 2005-built home that has been actively maintained and updated:
• Roof replaced approximately 4 years ago
• Downstairs water heater replaced 2022
• Built-in microwave replaced 2022
• All toilets replaced 2020
• Cedar gazebo — under one year old
• Fresh paint throughout
These aren't cosmetic touch-ups. They're the mechanical and structural items that matter most to buyers who don't want surprises after closing.
About Lake Ridge at Joe Pool Lake
Lake Ridge is one of the most distinctive communities in the southern DFW Metroplex. The 3,400-acre master-planned development sits adjacent to Joe Pool Lake in Cedar Hill, Texas, and was built around a lifestyle that most suburban neighborhoods can't replicate.
The community amenities are substantial:
• Joe Pool Lake — 7,500 acres with two marinas, swim beaches, boat rentals, and some of the best bass and crappie fishing in North Texas
• Tangle Ridge Golf Club — an 18-hole championship public course rated four stars by Golf Digest
• Valley Ridge Park — 165 acres with baseball, softball, soccer fields, a 1.5-mile hiking trail, fishing pond, four playgrounds, and a 3,000 sq ft amphitheater
• Cedar Hill State Park — adjacent to Lake Ridge, with camping, hiking, picnic areas, and lake access
• Six neighborhood parks with playgrounds, walking trails, ponds, and disc golf throughout the community
Lake Ridge is 20 miles from downtown Dallas and 28 miles from downtown Fort Worth, with access via Lake Ridge Parkway and Highway 67. The balance of proximity to DFW and separation from it is exactly why buyers who discover Lake Ridge tend to stay.
Who This Home Is Built For
At 3,915 sq ft with 5 bedrooms and 4 baths on a full acre, this property fits a specific buyer profile well:
• Families who need space to spread out without compromising on finish level
• Buyers prioritizing outdoor living and land — not just a yard, an actual acre
• Multi-generational households who need first-floor bedroom flexibility
• Move-up buyers who have outgrown their current home but don't want to sacrifice the neighborhood amenity package
• Anyone who has been shopping the DFW luxury market and keeps finding either the house or the lot, but not both
How It Compares in the Cedar Hill Market
Active listings in Cedar Hill's 75104 zip code currently span a wide range. At $697,000 for 3,915 sq ft, this home comes in at roughly $178/sq ft — competitive for an estate-level property on a full acre in an established lake community with this level of interior finish.
Comparable homes in Lake Ridge and surrounding Cedar Hill neighborhoods at this price point rarely combine the lot size, floor plan flexibility, and update history that 1611 Mustang Court brings together. The full-acre cul-de-sac position alone is a differentiator — that's not something that comes up often in resale inventory.
