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. With its architectural pedigree, golf-course frontage, and impressive potential, this home presents an exciting opportunity in an exceptional setting.
