Property Description
Mid-Century Modern Elegance in Forest Hills! Timeless 1960s architecture meets modern sophistication in this updated single-story estate on a 0.3-acre lot. Behind a stately iron gate, discover a rare front courtyard pool-a signature Mid-Century design that adds personality and potential. Framed by mature trees on a quiet, 95-foot-wide lot, the property also includes a detached rear studio-ideal for a guest suite, gym, or creative workspace. Inside, classic terrazzo floors anchor open living spaces with raised ceilings, exposed wood beams, and a dramatic rock-and-stone wood-burning fireplace set against a wall of elongated brick. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the home with natural light, connecting seamlessly to the courtyard and backyard. The chef's kitchen features an 8-foot marble peninsula, stainless steel appliances, and a commercial-grade range. Three spacious bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and an oversized garage complete this Forest Hills gem-just minutes from White Rock Lake, the Dallas Arboretum, Downtown Dallas, and top private schools. Tremendous value and potential in one of East Dallas' most desirable neighborhoods.
