Property Description
5222 Denton Drive is the second historic home in Oaklawn Heights that artists Brad Oldham and Christy Coltrin have recently renovated. The 2 bedroom, 2 bath 1,391 sf Cottage Tudor home was built in 1940 and completely renovated in 2024-25, adding to its original charm. The owners made artistic and high-end decisions throughout the project to produce a unique rental property they affectionately call Bird House. Perched atop the newly built two story, detached garage, a custom version of the BIRD sculpture that first appeared in The Traveling Man Deep Ellum installation in 2009 is featured. The detached garage with a second story is what makes this small home very livable. The 350-square foot bonus room and bathroom lend to uses such as an office, studio or guest room. The one-car garage has room for storage and a small workshop on the first floor. Landscaping, lawn care and the installation of holiday lights is provided by owners. Conveniently located between downtown Dallas and the medical district, this home was designed for executives and medical professionals who seek a luxury residence without the upkeep.
