It’s Grandparent’s Day! Scope Out These Great Condos Perfect For Grandma and Grandpa

Share News:

Happy Grandparent’s Day! What’s better than having a grandparent in your family? Having them close by! Dallas has tons of condos that are perfect for grandparents that want to downsize but not down-style.

1. 3535 Gillespie Unit 201

This 2/2.5 condo in the Plaza One building has grandparents written all over it! With a good-sized terrace with great views, grandma and grandpa will be able to live up their retirement! It’s priced at $450,000, and if you’re a good negotiator you might be able to get the gorgeous furnishings, too!

2. 2801 Turtle Creek Blvd. Unit 1W

I love garden-level units because that means less time in an elevator and more time inside the sumptuous interiors of this $2.75 million, 4,562-square-foot condo inside the Mansion Residents. While it technically might not be “downsizing,” the maintenance is taken care of by the expert staff at what is considered one of the most exclusive buildings in Dallas.

3. 3225 Turtle Creek Blvd. Unit 701 A

With great views of Turtle Creek, I was surprised that this condo inside The Renaissance was priced at the lower end of the spectrum at $325,000. The bathroom is just to die for, too, and this condo was completely renovated, so there won’t be much maintenance for grandma and grandpa, either!

    I am loving the colors in Grammy and Gramp's living room over on Gillespie — wow keep the chocolate chip cookies in the kitchen!

    Question: don't you think that Boomer grandparents (um, that could be me…) will be crazier grandparents than say, MY grandparents? My grandparents were immigrants. Everyone spoke Romanian in their house so I couldn't understand what they were saying until I got a dictionary and translated. My grandmother cooked all the time. My grandfather gardened and read the bible each night. I will take my grandchildren rolling and show them how to spy on big homes without trespassing and let them blog and play with my ipad. We'll go get cookies at Celebrity. I'll spoil them rotten and then hand them back to their parents so I can keep that satin nice and clean in my living room!
