Shorecrest Terrace Ranch Shows The Value of Good Craftsmanship

It’s hard not to fall under this home’s spell, with its beautiful windows that look out to beautifully landscaped front and back yards, with its stone half walls and see-through fireplace inside, and with its gorgeous flooring and open floor plan. But I suspect it’s more than just these things that will catch your attention, as is more than just two bedrooms and two bathrooms. This home has been loved by a craftsman.

That’s what listing agent Lynn Beaurline of Dave Perry-Miller says of 3820 Shorecrest, a Northwest Dallas ranch that just hit the market. Built in 1949, this home has been painstakingly remodeled by someone who knows the value of good carpentry. Not only that, but it has views of a fabulous greenbelt from several rooms throughout its more than 1,800 square feet.

If that seems a little tight for you, there’s also a carriage house in the back with a full bath. Call that your guest house, or your retreat, or your office. Me? I’d call it the perfect spot to feed my creativity.

Beaurline has this property listed for $535,000, and considering the finish-out and appointments, that is entirely reasonable.

I’m in love with the kitchen and its custom cabinetry, and how the seller used a different stain to delineate the cabinets below the range top and the sink. You get commercial-grade appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, as well as Thermador and Miele range and ovens.

The bathrooms are also full of custom, hand-crafted cabinetry, and have so much character. Check out the penny tile on the floor in the master bath, and the cool tub in the second bathroom. It’s so artful and engaging.

Truly there are so many details in this home that you have to see it to understand. But you’ll have to be quick, because craftsmanship like this doesn’t go unnoticed.
