Park Cities Made Possible: Explore an Incredible Cottage at a Perfect Price
Share News:
Known for its illustrious community, incredible homes, and outstanding schools, the Park Cities is perhaps the most sought-after six square miles in Texas. Comprised of Highland Park and University Park, this self-sustaining enclave is home to Dallas’ most prominent entrepreneurs, sports stars, and philanthropists. It also plays host to an abundance of local attractions like eclectic shopping, diverse dining, and more. Owning a home in the Park Cities opens residents up to a world of possibilities.
For this week’s Inwood Home of the Week sponsored by Inwood National Bank, we’re excited to show off a University Park cottage that provides all the perks of Park Cities with a price tag that’ll leave you doing a double-take.
“This is an excellent opportunity,” said listing agent Sylvia Scott with Briggs Freeman Sotheby’s International Realty. “A single-family detached home in Highland Park ISD for under $1.5 million is unheard of in this market. And this home offers so much with over 2,000 square feet, a sizable lot, and plenty of flexibility both inside and out.”
This three-bedroom, two-bathroom, 2,022-square-foot home is also a real looker.
Built in 1942 and meticulously maintained, it sports a classic traditional exterior on a 0.23-acre lot. With a cross-gabled roof, bay windows, and modern finish updates, it has so much character from the curb.
Then, upon entering, you’re met with an open, efficient floor plan that allows you to traverse all gathering areas with ease.
“It’s a spectacular layout,” said Scott. “It’s not only arranged intuitively but also makes incredible use of each space.”
The main living area is graced with a picture-perfect Park Cities view from the panoramic bay window. Then, a contemporary hearth sets a cozy tone for an intimate and inviting atmosphere.
The galley kitchen presents thoughtful updates with fresh tilework, quartz countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. Therefore, elevated culinary experiences are as easy as they are enjoyable.
The primary suite features plenty of space for just about any configuration. With a large window and ample natural light, the vibe welcomes peaceful retreats any time of day.
The ensuite bathroom features a recent renovation as well. With dual vanities, a seamless walk-in shower, a stand-alone soaking tub, and eye-catching design, this is the perfect escape for refreshing routines and relaxing winddowns.
Apart from the two other big bedrooms, this home boasts an additional bathroom and a large gathering area complete with built-ins for a bar or media configuration.
Finally, the backyard is rife with potential.
“It’s a great-sized lot,” said Scott. “The backyard could easily accommodate an expansion, pool, or even an in-law suite. However you choose to use this home, it’s a rare opportunity in one of the area’s most incredible neighborhoods.”
Come see her for an open house this Sunday, July 20, from 1 to 3 p.m.
