Property Description
Perfectly placed just moments from Bishop Arts District, this charming cottage feels like something straight out of an Oak Cliff storybook—where timeless character meets thoughtful modern updates.
The home's blush-toned exterior, original stained-glass tulip windows, and inviting wraparound front porch create an unforgettable first impression and embody the relaxed, front-porch lifestyle Oak Cliff is known for. Inside, original hardwood floors, soaring beamed ceilings, pocket doors, and beautifully preserved millwork honor the home's historic character, while abundant natural light fills the main living and dining spaces.
The reimagined kitchen was designed with both style and functionality in mind, featuring honed soapstone countertops, a farmhouse sink, and an expanded dining area that improves flow for everyday living and entertaining alike. The updated bath offers a fresh yet timeless feel with a renovated shower, updated sink, and marble vanity. Even the laundry and utility room has been thoughtfully redesigned with custom built-ins for added storage and convenience.
Meaningful system upgrades provide peace of mind, including a full electrical rewire completed in 2023, HVAC system replacement in 2023, energy-efficient windows, improved attic insulation, recessed lighting, and charming newer exterior doors.
Outdoors, the home truly comes to life. A newly added approximately 1,000-square-foot back porch and fire pit gathering area create the ultimate setting for entertaining beneath the Texas sky, complemented by a stone patio, refreshed landscaping, privacy fence, and detached storage building.
Warm, inviting, and designed for a lifestyle of casual elegance, this well-maintained home beautifully balances historic charm with intentional modern improvements—all in one of Oak Cliff's most beloved locations.
