Ready For Your Own White House? These Open Houses Offer Plenty of Options

These days, a white house seems to be a big trend in every neighborhood. But at the same time, others have been around for decades, such as The White House, located at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. Can a classic be a trend, too?

Bright and clean-looking, white goes with everything and anything. It’s easy to work with, and it’s a classic. It also goes hand-in-hand with the modern farmhouse vibe that our Waco friends Chip and Joanna have made such a fave.

Now white isn’t just white, as you may or may not know. Some are brighter — almost blinding — and others are creamier, grayer, bluer, greener, or pinker. White can be dramatic, quite a contrast to greenery in a landscape, and it can serve as a great backdrop for accents like a red front door, black shutters, or brass carriage lights.

I just might or might not own the owner of the white house in my neighborhood. We’ve painted two houses white, and I can tell you it’s a great way to cover up ugly brick. But whether it’s new or old, brick or stucco, white can be very, very right for a home. Take these CandysDirt.com Open Houses of the Week for example and tell us: Which white house is your white house?

7335 Lehigh Drive, Dallas

Not only this house white, it doubles down on our theme by being near White Rock Lake.

Located in East Dallas’ University Terrace neighborhood, this house was built this year by Homebound. The 3,963-square-foot house features an open-concept floor plan, large windows, and smart-home technology.

The two-story contemporary brings the luxury. The kitchen comes with JennAir appliances, an expansive island, a walk-in pantry, and a butler’s pantry. The primary suite comes with a spa-like bathroom with both a soaking tub and a rainfall shower.

Details include five bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a media room, all listed at $1.297 million. Besides being near the lake, the house is close to some of Dallas’ best shopping and restaurants.

Open from 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday, this house is listed by Ben Caballero with HomesUSA.com.

123 War Wagon Circle, Millsap

First of all, look how easy the address of this home would be to memorize … easy as 1, 2, 3. Secondly, this white house in the El Dorado Estates neighborhood sits on two acres. Thirdly, those two acres are on a cul-de-sac.

The exterior’s white is bright, but it’s far from stark. The eye-catching shutters and door bring some warmth to the 2,165-square-foot house. Step inside and the warmth continues with the flooring and kitchen island. The finishes are modern from the pendant lighting to the kitchen backsplash. The open floor plan allows a view of the living room fireplace from the kitchen’s gas cooktop. Want another view? Gaze out the kitchen window and catch a glimpse of the wildlife on this private property.

The house includes three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a bonus room that could be an office, fourth bedroom, or maybe that much-wanted man cave or she space. Built in 2020, the house is priced at $549,000.

This home, listed by Michele Colafrancesco with The Ashton Agency, will be held open from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Sunday.
