Now on the Market: State Rep’s Delinquent Tax Home in Lake Highlands

Share News:

There are two ways you probably know this week’s featured Saturday Seven Hundred home located at 8580 Abrams Road in northeast Dallas. One, you’ve been following the story about State Representative Victoria Neave’s delinquent back taxes for her 7,606-square-foot home. Or two, you live in Lake Highlands and have always wondered what’s the deal with that newish modern house on Abrams near Starbucks that stands alone in style and orientation.

Either way, this Mediterreanean or even European-inspired contemporary home is back on the market after two years, listed for $750,000 just a few days ago by Sonia Vasquez of Coldwell Banker Apex Realtors, who aptly described it as “the biggest deal in Dallas.”

BIGGEST DEAL in Dallas, Lake Highlands Schools and 7606 sf! Walk into the grand entry, marble floors, enormous impressive LA and DA formals, detailed customs throughout, custom drapes, custom carpet, custom built-in bookcases for that much needed library and show off your gallery here!

Built in 1999, the two-story stucco home has five bedrooms, three full baths, one half bath, and is situated on 0.32 acres with iron fencing around the home. The $750k price tag is a steal considering its proposed 2019 market value is $927,290. It’s been listed as high as $1.495 million in 2015.
