This Just-Listed Modern Home in Oak Cliff Has Quite a Storey

When Lukas Petrash bought the lot at 806 S. Storey St. in Oak Cliff, he already had a vision.

The lot, which has a unique shape — one end of the yard has a deep angle where two streets converge — made for a fantastic modern home. Only, Petrash had a client that it would be far better for. So he went to work customizing his design for the buyers.

The results are incredible, and now they could be yours.

The home itself is situated in Oak Cliff, but every morning the sellers can report hearing the lions at the Dallas Zoo roaring awake. The second-story of this South Storey St. home overlooks the Hippo Habitat, just across the creek.

If that wasn’t enough, the home is drop-dead gorgeous.

If this home looks familiar, it’s because it was featured on the 2017 Oak Cliff Home Tour from Heritage Oak Cliff (formerly the Old Oak Cliff Conservation League). Everything is sleek on this 2016 build — from the museum-finish walls to the gorgeous floating staircase. And while the interiors are sexy as all heck, the views are truly allowed to shine.

The walls of glass in the living area overlooking the deck and backyard, the floor-to-ceiling glass in the primary suite — heck even the corner window in the primary bathroom — the home has a place for you to relax and take it all in.

And when you’re done taking it in from inside, head outside, as this home has more than 1,500 square feet of outdoor living space.

There’s not only an epic deck with a fantastic swim spa and sitting area, a covered grill area near the privacy fence, and a huge attached lawn, but just outside the luxurious owner’s suite is a massive terrace with a beautiful midcentury fireplace. I would never leave!

But what’s really amazing is the price. At this location — just minutes from downtown Dallas and the Bishop Arts District — and with two bedrooms and two full baths with a very functional 1,888 square feet, you’d expect to pay out the nose for a home like this.
