Christie’s @properties Lone Star Adds to Its Portfolio Frisco’s Historic Jim W. Gordon House

With a powerhouse team and premier reputation, Christie’s International Real Estate @properties Lone Star boasts some of the state’s most impressive inventory. From palatial Park Cities estates to incredible Austin condos, this agency has offered the full spectrum of Texas gems. Therefore, it isn’t surprising that Jerry Mooty’s Frisco team now represents one of the city’s most important properties.

Located in the Frisco Original Donation District, 7190 Oak Street is a designated historic property recognized with a Heritage Association plaque. Known as the Jim W. Gordon House, the property carries meaningful local history. Jim W. Gordon opened the first barbershop in Frisco. Also, his wife was a milliner in town, making this home a true piece of the city’s origin story.

Believed to have been built in 1898, the home was relocated to its current site in 1903 when the railroad came through, and residences were moved from Lebanon into downtown Frisco. Currently, it sits within walking distance of downtown shopping and dining.

“It’s a unique opportunity in that it’s in a mature neighborhood but so close to all the modern amenities of downtown Frisco,” said listing agent Tara McGraw. “In a town like Frisco, the history, heritage, and craftsmanship in a home like this is really hard to find, but this one has it all. Also, with proximity to Toyota Stadium, it’s zoned for an entertainment district and can be utilized as a short-term rental. With all the games, concerts, and events just steps away, this property has no problem maintaining occupancy and providing steady revenue.” 

With an iconic craftsman cottage style, this home is emblematic of its late 19^th-century era. A deep front porch, gabled window, and pitched roof establish its architecture as an American classic.

Then, the interior perfectly preserves its heritage appeal while incorporating contemporary touches where appropriate. From the rich wood flooring to the craftsman embellishments and stained-glass accents, it’s like stepping into history.

The layout unfolds across a split-level design. The first floor features a cozy living room arranged around an original hearth. Then, the traditional layout takes you to an elegant formal dining room, kitchen, flex spaces, two bedrooms, and a large laundry room.

The kitchen boasts tasteful updates that complement its timeless style. Crisp cabinetry, granite countertops, and a massive Wolf range make for an incredible culinary environment.

Then, the primary suite feels both elevated and authentic. Here, a handsome brick hearth and built-in workstation give the room classic character. The ensuite bathroom features a full update with immaculate tilework and sophisticated finish outs to evoke an enduring aesthetic.

A few steps up the classic quarter-turn staircase lead you up to the second floor. Here, two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and a unique office space add to the livability of this property.

Finally, the spacious backyard of the Jim W. Gordon House provides plenty of green space, another large porch, and a detached two-car garage. From garden parties to private events, this is the perfect space to enjoy the ambiance of this picturesque Frisco neighborhood.
