Thursday Three Hundred: Disney Streets Midcentury Has Plenty of Updates Without Sacrificing Character

Everyone is looking for the perfect Midcentury Modern these days. Lucky for them, Dallas has a fabulous collection of the much sought-after architectural style. This one, at 10815 Cinderella Lane in the Disney Streets neighborhood, is a great family home with tons of updates without losing the Mid-Mod charm!

With three bedrooms and two full baths, this house has room to spread out. It’s a good size for its age with 2,068 square feet of space in this 1956-built home. And this owner was listening when a little bird told them that kitchens and baths sell homes, because the kitchen and both full baths have been completely renovated.

It’s on the market for a recently reduced $380,000, so you know that these sellers are motivated. Honestly, I don’t see this home sitting on the market for a whole lot longer. I am sure that the winning bid will come soon after they spot some of the gorgeous features this home has to offer.

With a formal dining room, a living room, and a more informal den, this home has tons of space for entertaining. And the layout is classic Mid-Mod, with walls separating the living and dining areas and a half-wall in the kitchen. Speaking of the kitchen, there’s all new cabinetry that coordinates with the hardwood floors. There’s a fresh backsplash, too, as well as granite counters.

The master bedroom isn’t much larger than the other two bedrooms at 13 x 12, but you’ll love the full-size shower and double vanities in the master bath. Most 1950s-era bathrooms feature hideous color combinations of Daltile, so it’s fantastic that the current owners have remodeled them both.

The backyard is a great space for entertaining and gardening, and has a huge concrete slab patio that will accomodate a grill and perhaps, if it’s your thing, a hot tub. I am sure a resourceful buyer will get a few quotes on covering the patio, which would extend the area’s usefulness this summer by hours and days!
