Upgraded Midcentury Cottage Wows in Quiet Wolf Creek

Share News:

wolf creekNeighbors call Wolf Creek “peaceful,” “dog-friendly,” “family-friendly,” and “clean.” And you probably haven’t heard much about it — yet.

There is apparently something percolating over in Wolf Creek, because the Midcentury Cottage that Realtor Nyalls Carlton with eXp Realty showed us is the second home we’ve come across in the past month or so that just immediately grabbed our attention.

Not only is it a bright, light, modern home perfect for a family, but it’s also priced at a new buyer-friendly price that’s far below the Dallas median home sales price of $280,000 in October.

And you can tell this home is special from the moment you drive up to the curb — just look at that adorable turquoise door, and the covered porch that’s just begging for a few hanging flower baskets and a couple of cute chairs.

Inside, this three-bedroom, two-bath house at 5226 Clubview Dr. has gotten updates top to bottom, Carlton said, with an open concept kitchen and living area with tons of natural light.

“Upgrades include fresh interior paint, laminate wood flooring,” he said. And all the finishes and paint choices are neutral enough that just about any decorating style will fit.

And the kitchen is ready for family dinners, too — new granite countertops, glass-tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances.

A generously-sized master bedroom includes an upgraded en-suite bathroom with dual sinks and plenty of vanity space. The other two bedrooms are also comfortably proportioned.

Outside, a nice-sized backyard with a private patio is perfect for al fresco dining, or for relaxing while watching the kids play.

And it’s not just a pretty house, it also has a new roof, electrical panel, and insulated windows.

This Wolf Creek listing is priced at $189,900, and has been on the market for seven days. Want to check it out in person? There’s an open house on Saturday, Dec. 1, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
