When You’re Ready to Put Down Roots, This Oak Cliff Home Is The One

This week’s Inwood National Bank Home of the Week is an Oak Cliff beauty, perfect for a working professional who’s ready to put down some roots. With 2,238 square feet and three bedrooms, it’s got plenty of room for overnight guests or a roommate, and its HOA costs are a mere $125. Oak Cliff has come a long way, and this townhouse places you right in the middle of the action.

“One of the first things you’ll notice are the 11-foot ceilings in the living areas,” points out Mohammed Jaber, the listing agent. “That dimension just adds to this home’s relaxing effect — it’s a wonderful place for after a long work day.”

No argument. The open floor plan adds to that quiet atmosphere, providing long sight lines from the dining room to the den, straight across the kitchen island.

The chef’s kitchen has stainless steel GE appliances, quartz countertops, and a gas cooktop. It seems to hide abundant storage space in plain sight; while there are numerous wall cabinets, there’s plenty of additional low-key shelving built into the island. And the island has room for four to eat. We’d be remiss not to mention the kitchen’s got the best light fixtures in the whole house, too.

The rooms are simple and sleek in design. Hardwood floors combine with generous window views onto greenery right outside. The area surrounding the home includes two parks that are great for walking.

Upstairs the rooms are carpeted. You’ll pass two extra bedrooms — each complete with an en suite bathroom — as you ascend to the master bedroom on the third floor.

“Here’s the retreat within the retreat,” points out Jaber. “It’s just a nice big, roomy space, with a generously appointed bathroom, and of course the rooftop deck.” The bathroom has double sinks, walk-in closets, and separate bath and walk-in shower.

The rooftop is a few steps away, a lovely destination for friends after a night out.

And speaking of going out, Oak Cliff was once called the Brooklyn of Dallas — downtown and Deep Ellum are still just a short drive away. Even closer are Trinity Groves, and Bishop Arts.

So take a close look at what could be your fortress of solitude, or even a fortress to socializing. It’s all up to you.
