White Rock Retreat Bar

This luxury indoor-outdoor bar addition by The Renowned Group transforms a traditional rear living space into a seamless entertaining hub in Dallas’ White Rock Highlands. Designed for modern functionality and year-round entertaining, the project redefines how indoor and outdoor spaces interact—with the kind of craftsmanship and custom detailing our team is known for.

The homeowners wanted a space that could operate as both a cozy retreat and an open-air social zone. To make that possible, we removed the entire rear exterior wall and installed a full-span, motorized accordion-style glass wall. With the push of a button, the space transitions from an enclosed bar lounge into an expansive open-air environment, connecting directly to the patio, pool deck, and outdoor seating area beyond.

Inside, the bar spans the full length of the room and features a handcrafted live-edge walnut countertop, custom glass-front cabinetry, and a vertical tile backsplash. Six pull-out drawers were built specifically to accommodate the client’s curated spirit collection, while a hammered copper sink and matte black fixtures add texture and contrast. A dual-zone beverage fridge, integrated lighting, and tailored hardware complete the interior with high-end finishes throughout.

This luxury indoor-outdoor bar addition also includes seamless flooring transitions, smart lighting integration, and millwork designed to match the home’s original architectural character. Every decision—from structural reconfiguration to final styling—was driven by a desire to blend design-forward thinking with practical usability.

Whether hosting guests or enjoying quiet evenings by the pool, this luxury indoor-outdoor bar addition offers a flexible, beautifully crafted space that enhances daily life and adds lasting value to the home. It’s a prime example of The Renowned Group’s ability to deliver immersive, livable luxury tailored to the way modern homeowners live.
