Your (Large) Family’s Next Home Awaits, and It’s in the RISD

This week’s Inwood National Bank Home of the Week is a sprawling fortress of family living at 7018 Blackwood Drive. It’s almost 3,000 square feet, located in hot Lake Highlands.

Seriously, look at that backyard. Situated on a 0.29-acre lot, you could have a spontaneous soccer game with the whole neighborhood.

Inside you’ll find 2,974 square feet with five bedrooms and three baths.

The spacious kitchen is full of cabinet and countertop space, and has an adjoining breakfast area. Picture the possibilities for a beautiful kitchen update.

The den is wide and open. Like much of the interior it’s a blank canvas awaiting your design, but let’s agree there will be a passel of kids watching movies during multiple slumber parties there.

Bedrooms are wide and generous too — three upstairs and two downstairs. One comes with cabinetry built in, perfect for a WFH office space, a study, or craft room.

The primary bedroom is almost 300 square feet, with a bathroom that features a garden tub, separate shower, and walk-in closets. And yes, we see the carpet in there, but for the amazing deal you’re getting, there’s plenty of room in the budget to update.

The neighborhood is also a tremendous value as Lake Highlands continues to develop. This home is close to the Alamo Drafthouse-anchored development at Skillman and Abrams, and North Central is a quick drive on Northwest Highway.

A final benefit to the location is its access to the celebrated Richardson School District. It’s zoned for top-notch Merriman Park Elementary.

Far more than a starter home, this is the flagship location of your Dallas lineage. Dream big!

7018 Blackwood Drive is listed by Jenny Capritta of Re/Max DFW Associates for $514,000.
