Property Description
Exceptional Single-Story Estate on Nearly Half an Acre in One of Dallas' Most Beautiful Neighborhoods. Welcome to this rare and remarkable single-story property nestled on almost ½ an acre, featuring a fully HVAC-conditioned guest house and unmatched curb appeal in a serene, tree-lined setting. From the moment you arrive, the manicured grounds, mature trees, and inviting front porch create a warm and private atmosphere. Step inside to discover an ideal layout: an office and guest bedrooms to the left, and to the right, a spacious dining area, gourmet kitchen, and cozy family den with fireplace. Straight ahead, the second living area opens through sliding glass doors to your backyard oasis-complete with a large pool, luxurious outdoor kitchen, fireplace, and the fully equipped guest house. Inside the main home, exposed wood beams, rich hardwood floors, and abundant natural light elevate the living spaces. The chef's kitchen boasts high-end appliances, a butcher-block island, built-in wine fridge, and a charming breakfast area-perfect for entertaining or everyday living. The main residence offers 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and an attached 2-car garage. The expansive guest house adds a 1-bedroom, 1-bath layout with a full kitchen, living room, its own laundry area, and private entrance-bringing the total to nearly 3,000 square feet of HVAC-controlled living space. A third standalone building-currently used as a greenhouse and storage-offers endless potential as a home gym, studio, office, or creative retreat. Lovingly restored and meticulously maintained, this special home is a true reflection of pride in ownership. Full list of upgrades available in the MLS documents.
