About This Property
Experience the pinnacle of Old East Dallas living in this exquisitely restored 1922 Arts & Crafts bungalow, gracefully set within Junius Heights Historic District. This 1.5-story residence is a rare offering as the classic center-hall floor plan welcomes you with original hardwood floors, recently refinished, and a luminous, gallery-white interior that enhances the home's historic character. Original period moldings and a stunning collection of vintage light fixtures serve as striking design elements throughout. Original French doors--thoughtfully preserved, with one set reimagined as bespoke sliding doors enhance flow for everyday living and elegant entertaining. The kitchen is a true chef's workspace, appointed with soft-close custom cabinetry and dual butler's pantries that allow for seamless hosting and organization. The main-level primary suite is a serene retreat, enveloped by walls of windows that fill the space with natural light. A generous sitting area and an oversized, walk-in closet elevate both comfort and function. Upstairs, a versatile landing with original bookcases opens to an expansive game room with recently installed carpeting, perfect for a gym, office, or playroom. Behind its historic charm lies a home equipped for modern living, including a Rinnai tankless water system and tastefully updated bathrooms. Significant structural updates including foundation work and attic insulation, provide lasting peace of mind. Embrace the quintessential Old East Dallas lifestyle from the deep front porch, perfect for morning coffee, or entertain on the private back deck shaded by a magnificent century-old pecan tree. A rare two-car garage completes this exceptional property, offering both convenience and value in a historic setting. Ideally located within walking distance to Lakewood Village, the shops at Skillman & Live Oak, and Lower Greenville. This is more than a home--it is a piece of Dallas history, meticulously restored and ready for its next chapter.
