Classic M Streets Tudor in Dallas

The "M Streets" are known for great houses but this is one of the few that offers the functionality of today with the period charm of yesteryear. This home is one of the best preserved in all of the M Streets. While the extra large kitchen has been re-done, the rest of the house looks much like it did in 1931 with no additions or architectural modifications. On either side of the arched front entry are leaded glass-front bookcases leading to the spacious living room, with its stunning vaulted and mahogany beamed ceiling. A magnificient stained glass window fills the east wall and two smaller stained glass windows add a further degree of elegance. Four original sconces grace the walls, and the wood burning fireplace is trimmed with Rookwood tile. The original stained woodwork throughout the living room adds to the feeling of warmth and charm. Our dining room has a unique and original antique ceiling fan and light fixture over the dining room table. The afternoon sunlight that fills the dining room and kitchen creates a wonderful dining experience. Updated, fully equipped and spacious, the kitchen also has room for a breakfast table and chairs, or use bar stools at the oversized counter for a more casual dining area. The full-size, stackable Maytag Neptune washer and dryer are conveniently nearby, but out of sight. "Signed" faux painted walls will delight you as will the antique built-in cabinet and the modern glass front doors on the kitchen cabinets. One of the three bedrooms is perfectly suited for a home office with built in bookshelves, bench seating with underneath storage and custom lighting. The corner lot, wide driveway and two car garage make parking for you and your guests convenient. You will also love the mostly original tile and fixtures in the baths, the original light fixtures throughout the house and the original red oak hardwood flooring.
