Share News:

This week we take you to Lakewood Estates in hotter than hot East Dallas. Both of our picks offer great locations close to all the action, but tranquil spaces at home for the ultimate in relaxation. Which would you choose? Take your pick in our latest Splurge vs. Steal.

Splurge: Water View Estate on Three-Quarters Acre Offers Peace and Privacy

First, our splurge: a 3,818-square-foot three bedroom on peaceful .756 water view acreage. Enjoy the view from the large floor-to-ceiling windows across the back of this updated house in the desirable Lakewood Estates.

It’s a one-story house with three split bedrooms and three baths. The large primary bedroom will be a favorite with sitting area, dressing area and large closet highlighted by the beautifully updated bath and views of backyard.

The dining and family rooms share the well-designed kitchen with pantry and abundant counter spaces. Hardwoods, exceptional trim, custom built-ins, and high ceilings are found throughout.

Steal: Plenty of Potential for Nearly Half the Price

Next, our splurge: a 2,236-square-foot four bedroom with potential galore. This midcentury ranch has been magnificently landscaped and partially updated.

The kitchen has been updated to reflect the character of the original home with stainless steel appliances, quartz counters, undermount sink, and tile floors. It’s open to a second living area and adjacent to a formal dining room.

Additional 2019 updates include windows, sewer line, plumbing & electric, cedar fence, screened patio, bamboo floors, front porch deck, and security system. The second story suite with a full bath has a separate outdoor entrance in addition to indoor access for working from home, live in, or VRBO.

If you love the outdoors you’ll enjoy the lush landscaping from the screened in porch or the front deck which overlooks a neighborhood creek.

Lauren Moore of Compass RE Texas has listed 6503 Lake Circle Drive for $699,995.
