This well-preserved Lake Cliff Historic District two-story home is a superb example of rare Shingle style Tudor architecture. Only one mile from downtown Dallas, it is sited on a lushly landscaped .25 acre lot with iron fencing, motorized driveway gate, large gardens and towering trees. This home was specifically designed for breathtaking views of historic Lake Cliff Park. Recently completed updates by the current owners were thoughtfully accomplished and lend a period sensitive quality sure to impress.

Enter the formal vestibule as natural light pours indoors through multipane windows filled with enchanting wavy glass. Original never painted stained woodwork, beautiful wall finishes, antique light fixtures and narrow gauge hardwood flooring highlight the formal areas. The formal living room is exceptionally spacious and features an abundance of built-in shelving and a large brick fireplace that is wood burning. A second brick fireplace is found in the formal dining room.

The kitchen was relocated then completely renovated. This fresh amazing space is now the heart of the home. The Maple cabinets have an antiqued finish. Honed marble countertops were chosen for the range top area and gorgeous cherry butcher block was placed on the large center island. This island area with prep sink was designed to provide both great serving space and extra storage. Double stainless steel Jennair wall ovens are equipped with modes for convection, dehydrating and proofing. Opposite the island, a Maple clad Sub-Zero refrigerator freezer sits recessed in the wall.

The separate Scullery, adjacent to the kitchen, with its gigantic restaurant-size stainless steel sink, commercial sprayer and Bosch dishwasher is great for catering parties and hiding dirty dishes.

One of the three full baths is located conveniently on the first floor. A huge Laundry-Craft room with ample room for an extra freezer is downstairs also. The three bedrooms and two full baths are upstairs. The Master bedroom has a wood burning brick fireplace discovered during the renovation and an attached alcove with diamond-patterned windows just perfect for sitting, office or nursery use. The Master Bath is grand! It boasts a dual vanity and separate dressing table, antique clawfoot tub, large walk-in tiled shower with two shower heads, water closet and walk-in closet.

Wait, there's more! The three car garage has a fully conditioned large office/storage space above with full bath. To complete the package, this home was recently approved for the City of Dallas 10 Year Historic Tax Abatement. See agent for details.
