The kitchen is a chef's workspace with soft-close custom cabinetry and dual butler's pantries for hosting and organization. The main-level primary suite is filled with natural light and offers a sitting area and oversized walk-in closet. Upstairs, a spacious landing, perfect for a reading nook or study space, is lined with original built-in bookcases and opens to an expansive flex space—ideal for a gym, office, or playroom—and two large bedrooms with walk-in closets.
Enjoy the Old East Dallas lifestyle with a deep front porch perfect for gathering with friends and family. A rare two-car garage adds convenience and value in this historic setting. Ideally located near highly-rated Lipscomb Elementary (an IB and Dual Language public school), Lakewood Library, White Rock Lake, Lakewood Village, and Lower Greenville, this is more than a home—it is a piece of Dallas history, meticulously restored and ready for its next chapter.
