High-rise View – Modern Home

My favorite site. This single-family home found in Turtle Creek Park has elevation of a 5th floor high-rise residence found across Turtle Creek. It is also nestled into the trees and lush urban landscape lining the Katy Trail. Found on a private drive, in one direction it is a few homes away from the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Kalita Humphreys Theater, with renovation plans in the works for this landmark building and Turtle Creek Park land. In the other direction the drive of Turtle Creek winds its way along Turtle Creek to the stone bridge that leads into the private, forested neighborhood of 33 houses in Turtle Creek Park, framed by Turtle Creek, Rock Creek and the Katy Trail. This site enjoys a hidden, secluded neighborhood with the greatest pedestrian access to the vibrancy of Dallas – Knox Street, West Village, Arts District, Mockingbird Station and many other destinations along the Katy Trail. One might wonder how the most serene neighborhood can be surrounded by the most city life. This modern home on Turtle Creek answers the question. When Frank Welch first saw this site he immediately envisioned building into the embankment, building a pool over the rock outcropping and creating views of Turtle Creek, downtown and the wooded environment of Turtle Creek and Rock Creek.
