Steeped in the quiet theatricality of Tudor architecture, this storybook home blends historic beauty with thoughtful updates for modern living. Its steep gables, decorative half-timbering, and sculptural brick chimney create a striking first impression, while leaded-glass windows cast soft patterns of light across the interior. Traditional ceiling heights and cozy, intimate rooms offer the kind of warmth and connection that many homeowners now seek—spaces that feel personal, calm, and deeply livable. Inside, hardwood floors and two gas-log fireplaces ground the living areas in classic charm. The main-level primary suite provides ease and privacy, while the expansive, updated kitchen serves as the home’s centerpiece, featuring a generous island, granite counters, marble backsplash, built-in refrigerator and freezer, beverage fridge, and custom glass-front cabinetry. The adjoining four-season porch, with its own HVAC system and French doors, offers year-round enjoyment and a serene connection to the outdoors.
The den—ideal as a library or creative workspace—reveals floor-to-ceiling windows, a wall of custom bookshelves, and a fireplace that encourages quiet moments of discovery. Upstairs, angled ceilings follow the home’s Tudor rooflines, and the updated bath includes a clawfoot tub beneath a vaulted, beamed ceiling, separate shower, and dual period-style vanities. The main level primary bath adds modern comfort with heated floors.
An electric gate leads to the garage with workshop and a private backyard oasis. A winding stone path and mature landscape create an atmosphere of uncommon beauty. For the next caretaker, opportunities exist to modernize according to personal taste while honoring the home’s enduring character if desired. With a whole-house 20 kW generator and easy access to Stevens Park Golf Course, Bishop Arts, airports, dining, and downtown Dallas, this home offers a rare blend of romance, practicality, and architectural intention.

A rare opportunity to own an architecturally significant 1960s custom home overlooking the 2nd fairway of the Golf Club of Dallas. Set within a quiet neighborhood known for tree-lined streets and architect-designed residences, this property offers timeless craftsmanship, solid construction, and exceptional renovation potential. Original mid-century details remain throughout, including brick flooring in the entry and sunken living room, tongue-and-groove paneling, 6-panel solid wood doors with brass and chrome hardware, and striking period light fixtures. Oversized windows along the back of the home bring in abundant natural light and frame long, uninterrupted views of the fairway. The forward-thinking floor plan offers excellent flexibility: the primary suite is upstairs with generous proportions and elevated views, while two additional spaces—one on the main level adjacent to a full bath and another large upstairs bedroom with en-suite access—could also function as primary suites. Additional highlights include a dedicated home office with lighted cabinetry, a butler’s pantry, a wet bar in the living room, in-law or service quarters with a bath, and closets with custom built-ins. While the interior remains largely original and well maintained, the exterior has been updated with Tyvek wrapping, Hardie board siding, and fresh paint, creating a durable envelope for future improvements.
