If You’re Hunting Tudors, Hollywood Heights Has Your Dream Listing

Hollywood Heights is one of those communities you feel instantly at home in. Whether you’re an outdoors enthusiast or simply enjoy haunting local hangouts, this neck of the woods enhances all lifestyles. With local restaurants, breweries, parks, and one of the best golf courses in Dallas, Hollywood Heights offers almost everything you need. Also, the homes here are as dynamic as the district itself.

“When I moved into Hollywood Heights in 1990, my Realtor told me I’d be in my starter home for probably five years,” said CandysDirt.com Senior Columnist, Karen Eubank. “Her jaw hit the floor when I saw her recently and told her that five years turned into 35! Now, I did regularly drag a Realtor pal out every spring for several years looking for a bigger backyard, a pool, and more closet space, but nothing resonated with me enough to move because it’s not just about the closets, the pool, or the backyard. It’s about the neighborhood.

“Hollywood Heights matched my experience of the camaraderie I had growing up on military bases all over the world. I thought I’d never find that same sense of community until I found this neighborhood.  Where else do you have a self-appointed social director who ensures we have an annual Easter parade and over-the-top Halloween and Christmas celebrations? The annual home tour brings everyone together and every kid here has learned to climb the big tree in our little neighborhood park. We may not know everyone’s name, but we know everyone’s dog’s name!”

For this week’s Inwood Home of the Week sponsored by Inwood National Bank, we’re excited to show off an enchanted Tudor in this incredible area.

This 1,810-square-foot, three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom abode offers authentic 1930s charm with evolved touches throughout. Let’s have a look.

From the outside, this home is quintessential in its composition. With antique brick patterns, a dual-pitched roof, and an arched entranceway, this home could inconspicuously blend into an English backdrop.

Then, the interior is open, updated, and inviting. At the center of this layout, the living room sets the stage for a charming welcome. Warm hardwoods, soft finishes, and a picturesque brick hearth enrich the ambiance with a comfortable Tudor feel.

Then, the kitchen is accessible, accommodating, and beautifully designed with sleek tilework, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse-style sink. Therefore, it makes mealtimes all that much more enjoyable.

The primary suite is spacious, well-lit, and incredibly cozy. With multiple windows and beautiful outdoor views, this space allows for restful retreats within the easy-going Hollywood Heights environment. We should note that this listing was staged by George Bass. He did an incredible job bringing it to life with a collection of pieces perfectly fit for the style.

Then, the ensuite bathroom is more than adequately appointed with dual vanities, a jetted tub, and a walk-in shower. The soft finishes give it a spa-like ambiance and create an excellent backdrop for your daily beauty routines.

While this home looks quaint and cozy, it opens up and provides an expansive floor plan. Not only does it feature multiple bedrooms and living areas, but it also includes a guesthouse in the backyard. It could be ideal for multigenerational living.

Speaking of the backyard, this expansive outdoor escape provides all you need for gathering, get-togethers, or simply just enjoying the scenery. The multilevel deck and swath of kept lawn create a private oasis in one of Dallas’s most coveted areas.

If you’re looking for a piece of the American dream, this Dallas neighborhood is awaiting your arrival.

“The feeling here is reminiscent of a different era,” said Eubank. “Because you not only know your neighbors, they become your friends. Unless someone gives me a house in Tuscany or an apartment in Paris, I’m not leaving!”
