This East Dallas Home Backs to a Popular Trail, But It’s Not the Katy

Running along the former Southern Pacific rail line from White Rock Lake toward Greenville Avenue, the SoPac Trail — still unfamiliar to some Dallasites — is quickly becoming one of East Dallas’ most desirable corridors.

This four-bedroom Lakewood home backs right up to it. For homeowners, that means stepping straight onto the trail — and not staring into a neighbor’s backyard. For this week’s Inwood Home of the Week sponsored by Inwood National Bank, we’re hitting the trail to show you what luxe living looks like in this neighborhood.

From the exterior, this 5,416-square-foot soft European home evokes a classic Hollywood Hills aesthetic. The white exterior, arched doorway, and contrasting shutters give it that muted Mediterranean look that some might associate with Mulholland Drive.

Inside, exposed ceiling beams, intricate molding, and arched throughways give it a distinct character around every corner. The layout is semi-traditional while providing an open and intuitive flow for the main living areas.

Flanked by French doors and focusing on a handsome hearth, the main living room is light-filled and inviting.

Then, the kitchen transitions seamlessly under a grand arch partition. Here, high-end appliances and ample counterspace provide a professional culinary space. An expansive butler’s pantry punctuates functionality while informal dining keeps the space incredibly accessible.

The primary suite, with its vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, looks out at beautiful backyard views.

The ensuite bathroom feels like a suite from the Chateau Marmont. Chevron hardwoods, arched partitions, and elegant fixtures capture a classic motif. Also, a walk-in closet adds to the luxury appeal of this space.

Aside from its four-bedroom layout, this home also offers three living spaces, making it incredibly accommodating for all resident configurations.

Finally, the backyard is abundant in amenities. The large covered patio extends the home’s livable space and features its own fireplace, TV compatibility, and outdoor kitchen. All of this backs up to the SoPac Trail, giving residents a verdant escape just steps away. With proximity to White Rock Lake and all the local attractions of Lakewood, the lifestyle factor is huge. There’s a reason this location is so coveted.
