In terms of Dallas neighborhoods, it doesn’t get more beautiful than Belmont Addition.

This coveted conservation district is widely known for its mature trees, historic homes, and storybook setting. Here, icons of classic American architecture are on full display. From Prairie four squares to Craftsman bungalows, Belmont Addition boasts some of the most attractive properties in the city. Of course, since authenticity is a staple of the architecture here, you might be surprised to learn that some of the best homes were built in the last few years.

5837 Llano Ave. is a striking example of a Belmont Addition baby. Born in 2017, this classic-looking Craftsman is contemporary where it counts.

From the curb, this five-bedroom, four-bathroom, 3,636-square-foot classic presents like its turn-of-the-century counterparts but with turnkey appeal. With low-pitched rooflines, a large front porch, and decorative brackets, it’s a dead ringer for a distinguished original.

However, once you step inside, the modern makeup is unmistakable. In this home, a classic motif is contrasted against cutting-edge design. Warm hardwoods, a sleek staircase, and sophisticated lighting set an innovative tone. Also, an accessible floor plan and open layout make it instantly inviting.

 The main living room balances traditional and trendy with tons of class. The oak-paneled hearth creates the perfect focal point, balancing feng shui against the large open windows.

Then, the chef’s kitchen creates a culinary paradise and a casual gathering space. With an eat-in island and built-in breakfast area, this is the perfect space for interactive hosting. Also, the stainless-steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and butler’s pantry up the ante on any gourmet endeavor.

 The primary suite is a picturesque and palatial retreat. With vaulted ceilings, a huge footprint, and peaceful neighborhood views, this space sets the ultimate tone for tranquility.

Of course, the en-suite bathroom is just as impressive. With a seamless walk-in shower, a standalone soaking tub, and ample vanity space, this is an ideal spa escape outfitted with all the essentials.

In all, this layout offers unlimited potential. With a plethora of flex spaces, bedrooms, and communal areas, there’s no shortage of options and opportunities. It’s an ideal listing for any resident type.

“This floor plan is really unique in that it’s so accommodating at every level,” said listing agent Kyle Baugh with Compass RE Texas. “It features five bedrooms spread out over two levels. Therefore, it’s perfect for large families or hosting while still maintaining a high level of privacy.”

Finally, the backyard offers a cozy hideaway imagined for intimate gatherings and exciting outdoor events. With a covered patio and turfed lawn, this is a seamless extension of the warmth and welcoming tone inherent in this home.

“The turfed back and side yards with the fence make the outdoor spaces so easy to maintain and enjoy,” said Baugh. “You can just lock and leave these areas, then pick up where you left off with no worries whatsoever.”

If you’re on the hunt for an instant classic with contemporary design, this Craftsman should be your first stop.

Kyle Baugh and Brandon Greenough with Compass RE Texas have 5837 Llano Ave. listed for $1.49 million.
