Timeless Tudor vs. Midcentury Modern In Kessler Park

With a fantastic mix of home styles and proximity to family-friendly parks and the Bishop Arts District, Kessler Park offers a lot for the price. So this week, we set our sights on two fantastic offerings with incredible architecture and beautiful backyards.

Which would you choose, the timeless Tudor Splurge or the tranquil Midcentury Steal? Let us know in the comments.

Splurge: Timeless Tudor In Prime Kessler Park With A Tranquil Pool For $597K

Now this is a Tudor to love! Not only does it sit on a fantastic block in desirable Kessler Park, it has a sparkling pool and loads of charm. And the three-bedroom, two-full-bathroom Tudor has plenty of updates without sacrificing the period details. 

From classic archways, twisted stone columns, gas lanterns and more, this home makes a fabulous first impression. The front porch couldn’t be more inviting! But inside, the real show begins. This is where the stunning hardwoods, built-ins, and custom crown moldings shine. We love the light-filled living area with fireplace and plantation shutters.

Plus, there is an elegant dining room, updated stainless kitchen, sunny breakfast nook, and master suite with French door access to the pool. Outside in the lushly landscaped backyard you’ll enjoy a covered patio and heated pool with spa. Additional highlights include thermo windows, laundry, separate storage shed, two-car-detached garage, and an electric gate. Plus, it’s a short five-minute drive to Bishop Arts! A worthy splurge indeed.

Steal: Mid-Mod With Updated Kitchen And Baths For $419.9K

Hello Kessler Park beauty! This two-bedroom, two-bathroom gem is perfect for those who Midcentury Modern style without a hefty price tag. Our steal offers clean lines, oversized windows, and plenty of space to entertain.

For the chef, there is a gourmet kitchen outfitted with custom Bulthaup cabinetry, quartz counters, Thermador fridge, and Wolf gas range! The elongated open window fills the space with light. And the Ann Sacks tile and Zepyr Okeanito range hood are sure to catch the attention of eagle-eyed designers. All this home needs is your personal touch!

Of course, the Calcatta marble baths and remote-control Toto toilets are a plus too. With the right furniture and art this home could easily transform into a one-of-a-kind showplace! We love the den with exposed beams and brick fireplace with doors to the patio.

And nothing beats the massive deck for those backyard parties come summer! If you’re into the Midcentury Modern style, be sure to add this one to your list. It’s worth a look!
