Located in Junius Heights, Dallas' largest historic district, this stately 104-year-old residence offers the character and craftsmanship buyers love about a historic property-without the daunting restoration project. The entry features the home's beautiful original staircase, along with many of the architectural details that have been preserved throughout, including original wood floors, leaded and stained glass, French doors and substantial millwork. Floors in the kitchen, breakfast room and living room have been refinished. French chandeliers brought to the home by the current owners complement the architecture, while three living areas provide flexible space. The freshly renovated, light-filled chef's kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, a generous island, walk-in pantry and eat-in banquette. A reclaimed side porch serves as a home office. Upstairs are four bedrooms with fantastic closets and two full baths. A jewel-box powder bath beneath the back staircase pairs marble tile floors with beautiful wallpaper. Especially important in a home of this age, all of the major infrastructure has already been addressed. HVAC systems, water heaters, plumbing and electrical have been replaced and updated. French doors open to a spectacular private oasis with a covered porch, patio, lawn and saltwater, heated sport pool with water features and hot tub. Set on nearly one-third acre, the fully fenced property with electric gate offers privacy and amazing outdoor space. An additional 852 SF of guest quarters with a full kitchen provides flexibility for guests or potential income-producing use. A true four-car garage with both alley and Gaston access is another rare and practical feature. Close to Baylor Medical Center and Downtown Dallas, this is a hard-to-find combination of authentic historic character, significant updates, generous grounds and move-in-ready living.
