Rob and Rick Snyder Lived Here: Another Reason Why Pensive Drive Could Boost Your Thinking Cap

Here is another reason why you might want to take a serious look at 10039 Pensive Drive here. Our Thursday $300,000 here. Got an email from none other than Rob Snyder, fabulous chairman (and I think founder) of Stream Energy. Turns out he and his (equally) famous and smart brother, Dr. Rick Snyder (Dallas cardiologist, past prez of the Dallas County Medical Society) were RAISED right here at 10039 Pensive Drive. Great DNA and smart juju. Rob says he even installed the sod lawn. No kidding:

My Mom sent me this link this morning related to your coverage of a Chapel Downs house located at 10039 Pensive Drive.

And she did so as this home just happens to be the first house of the Snyder family here in Dallas: and in which we lived for eight years after moving from Indiana during the late 1970s.  (Hell: I even helped to install the sod for the first lawn at that place.)

This just makes me so happy. It’s the reason we do what we do, our obsession with real estate, here at CandysDirtcom. We kind of feel that real estate is what makes the world go round, and it does. There is something so nostalgically comforting about our past homes and memories of living there. They are like dear old friends. We kind of like to know they are doing OK. Flourishing, even!

And Rob, your old house is splendid! (Look at that sod!) This also means we were actually almost neighbors, too. Our very first home in Dallas was at 3550 Ainsworth, after we left the Hub Apartments on Cedar Springs. Readers have asked me to write about all the homes we lived in since moving to Dallas in 1980. That might be a very cool exercise for not just me, but a series.

And thank you, Mrs. Snyder (Bobbi) for reading and sharing. Sounds like you have an amazing family. Which means you must be an amazing woman. I would LOVE to have coffee with you one day!
