Before and After: Find Fab Style in this Renovated South Dallas House

If you want to discover an up-and-coming neighborhood in South Dallas, cast your eyes toward Woodland Canyon near the Dallas Executive Airport. We’ve found a fabulous renovated Spanish-style house that’s big on style and priced right. The before-and-after pics show just how big of a transformation this house underwent. 

Our Thursday Three Hundred is located at 960 Glen Oaks Blvd., professionally renovated and ready for the spotlight, on an oversized creek lot with a large backyard. This home has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two dining areas, and 2,232 square feet on one story, built in 1971 and sitting on 0.42 acres. Let’s take a look! 

Located near South Polk Street and West Red Bird Lane, this home’s sweet curb appeal features freshly painted brick, new landscaping, and new contemporary mahogany front doors. The low-E windows are new, too. This house turns heads now — before it faded into the background. 

The interior finish-out is modern, with custom stained concrete floors throughout, new modern lighting, and a light and bright color palette. It looks like a totally different house — it was dark and dated before the flippers got their hands on it. 

The kitchen is now a sleek spot in the house with custom white Shaker-style cabinets, gray quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, floating shelves, and GE stainless steel appliances. The nearby laundry room shares the same style and has plenty of storage. 

Another huge reimagination came in the master suite. The “before” pics are a step back to the 70s with pink carpeting, huge swag drapery, and ornate ceiling treatment. Now the room is chic and on trend with a retro-inspired sputnik chandelier. The bathroom was gutted and now has a walk-in shower with frameless glass, Shaker-style cabinets on a custom vanity with dual sinks, and marble tile. The secondary bathroom is even more impressive with a huge vanity, dual sinks, and custom tile treatments. 

In back, the oversized yard has a new horizontal fence and custom deck overlooking the creek. The concrete patio is getting resurfaced with custom stained concrete and new grass will be installed where the old plants were removed.

Other updates to the house include a new 35-year roof, 14-SEER HVAC, and upgraded electrical with permits,
