This Kessler Park Classic Could Not Be More Picture Perfect

Share News:

Kessler Park is one of those Dallas neighborhoods that feels incredibly quaint, cohesive, and classic.

With striking American architecture set against a rich wooded backdrop, this Old Oak Cliff area is incredibly coveted. Residents here enjoy proximity to Stevens Park Golf Course, Kidd Springs, as well as easy access to all the amenities that Bishop Arts has to offer. Of course, with a slate of storybook-style homes, this nostalgic neck of the woods feels instantly inviting.

For this week’s Inwood Home of the Week sponsored by Inwood National Bank, we’re stoked to show off a beautifully restored classic on the north side of this scenic neighborhood.

Chris Hickman with Ebby Halliday lists 1113 N Canterbury Court for $1.5 million. This fully renovated four-bedroom, five-bathroom home is a knockout inside and out. Therefore, we had to take a look.  

From the outside, this home is absolutely picture-perfect. Its all-white exterior finish and classic dormer roof give it that cozy feel that seems right out of John Hughes flick. Also, this home rests on a natural hillside, giving it a grand appeal.

Upon walking in, the sophisticated interior sweeps you off your feet. This home boasts modern touches but never loses sight of its historic mid-30s roots. Exquisite molding, millwork, and wainscoting set the standard for authentic era-driven interior design.

The grand living room boasts beautiful floor-to-ceiling woodwork for the warmest, welcoming environment. Also, an abundance of windows allows for an open, airy feel.

Then, a relaxed sitting area easily adjoins the kitchen for incredibly easy entertaining. The kitchen itself is spacious and sleek with stainless steel appliances, an oversized eat-in island, and beautiful cabinetry.

Also, this home features both an informal dining area and a gorgeous formal dining room with stunning neighborhood views.  

Then, the primary suite is as spacious as it is serene. Here, large windows allow for the perfect natural lighting, and muted interior finishes set the tone for a relaxing retreat.


The ensuite bath is beset with beautiful marble, dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower. Therefore, it’s perfectly equipped for an opulent escape. Also, the walk-in closet is large enough to accommodate even the most robust wardrobe.

The other rooms and bathrooms in this home are extremely unique and amazingly updated. The overhead architecture and dormer windows make each space pop with distinctive curvature.  

Finally, the backyard offers a one-of-a-kind respite with a luxurious waterfall pool, a huge wrap-around porch, and a pristine backyard. This is the perfect place for beautiful evenings and bucolic summer days.

If you have a love of classic American architecture, this Kessler Park home is the dream.
