President George W. Bush and first lady Laura Bush have bought a house in the affluent Dallas neighborhood of Preston Hollow.

Accountant and family friend, Robert McCleskey, apparently purchased the house on their behalf. It has 8,500 square feet on a cul-de-sac with a half-dozen homes. Its market value is $2.1 million, and total estimated taxes on the property are listed at $43,984.

The neighbors include Tom Hicks, owner of the Texas Rangers, and Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavericks. T. Boone Pickens and retired Exxon Mobil CEO Lee R. Raymond also own houses nearby.

“If he moves next door, we’d love it,” Hicks wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press. “The Secret Service would make the neighborhood safer!”
