President Bush leaves Washington, D.C. this month to begin his post-presidency life, reportedly in Preston Hollow, a high-end North Dallas suburb. If you’re hoping to run into Mr. Bush on an early evening stroll near his new abode, or to borrow a cup of sugar from the former First Lady, consider purchasing one of the following three homes for sale in Mr. Bush’s new neighborhood:

A six-bedroom, seven-bath, 13,000-square-foot newly constructed estate on 1.1 acres in the Creeks of Preston Hollow boasts large walk-in closets; marble, wood and stone floors; a library; wine cellar; mud room; elevator; two wet bars and six fireplaces, all for an asking price of $7.4 million.

At $4.6 million, a six-bedroom, seven-full- and one-half-bath, 7,400-square-foot estate in Meadowood is nearer the reported price of President Bush’s new sanctuary ($3 million). Perfect for the car enthusiast, the 1.4-acre property includes an attached four-car garage and three additional covered carport spaces. A large formal dining room and family room with a terrace overlooking the pool provide entertaining space.

A Mediterranean estate built in 2008 in Meadowbrook at Walnut Hill features hand-carved Italian mantles, a large formal entertaining area with onyx columns and oak, onyx and limestone floors. A double iron gate in the driveway leads to the seven-bedroom, eight-bath, 11,500-square-foot residence with a facade of hand-cut limestone and a blended southwestern-style tile roof. For $6.4 million, you can own this home on a 1-acre lot.
