Lease of the Week: With Tons of Room And Lakewood Schools, This Home is Sure to Please

Not only is this home updated and fresh as a daisy, but it has a spacious, fenced-in backyard as well as Lakewood schools (Lakewood Elementary, Long Middle School, Woodrow Wilson High School), as well as some of the best pre-schools in the area, such as East Dallas Developmental Center.

So yes, if you’re considering moving to Lakewood, think about this super cute two-story just off Richmond Avenue in a very walkable part of the neighborhood, Country Club Estates. Yes, Lakewood can be walkable! This home at 6407 Richmond, which has more than 2,000 square feet, three bedrooms, three full baths, and brand-new stainless steel appliances is listed by Dave Perry-Miller Realtor Scott Jackson for $2,950 a month. Pets are allowed, too!

Sure, Richmond can be a busy street. It’s right between Abrams and Gaston — two significant thoroughfares in Lakewood. But consider that a selling point because there are tons of amenities nearby. You’re within walking distance of Whole Foods — literally just across the — Chipotle, Lakewood Shopping Center, Paciugo, Tietze Park, Lakewood Country Club, and the list goes on and on.

It’s a fantastic home for someone used to a more dense neighborhood such as Uptown, who wants to upsize without having to deal with driving everywhere for everything. And besides being super close to great shopping, there are tons of fantastic community groups, especially the Lakewood Early Childhood PTA.

So what do you think of this rental? Is it good for someone who wants a place to live while they find their dream home in Lakewood?
