Meticulously maintained Prairie located in the Peak’s Suburban Addition Historic District. This architectural gem stands as a testament to timeless elegance and thoughtful preservation, nestled amidst a canopy of mature trees that lend both shade and serenity to its distinguished setting. The residence exudes an inviting charm that harmoniously blends the stately grandeur of early twentieth-century design with the comforts of modern living. Every detail, from the manicured landscaping to the carefully preserved exterior, signals a deep respect for the home’s heritage and its storied place within the vibrant fabric of Old East Dallas. The house was built circa 1905 by renowned Dallas architect Otto Lang for himself and his family. Upon entering the airy entryway, you are greeted by the charm of a home from a bygone era. The open formal areas and second living space on the first floor flow seamlessly into one another, encouraging social interaction and enhancing the sense of spaciousness. The large eat-in kitchen opens onto a wonderful covered porch, further increasing the entertainment experience. Additionally, a bonus bedroom with a full bath is tucked away, providing a convenient guest getaway. The second floor boasts a third living area filled with natural light. The primary bedroom offers a sitting area, a large walk-in closet, and an ensuite bath, creating the perfect retreat. There are also two additional bedrooms and an extra bonus room for added flexibility. A 3 car garage with quarters ,500 sq ft punctuates the backyard. The covered front porch is ideal for gathering and experiencing the beauty, history, and sense of community that this Old East Dallas neighborhood offers. Located just minutes from Lakewood Shopping Center and Lower Greenville, with easy access to White Rock Lake, Santa Fe Trail, Downtown, and the Arts District. The City of Dallas Historic Preservation Tax Incentive has been applied for and will transfer with the property.
