Located in desirable Buckner Terrace, just minutes from Downtown Dallas and White Rock Lake, this thoughtfully updated home offers a comfortable, flexible layout paired with meaningful upgrades throughout. The beautifully renovated kitchen features white cabinetry, slab granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances including an electric range, dishwasher, and microwave, along with replaced ceramic tile flooring. Formal living and dining spaces provide excellent flex areas and feature a large bay window preserved during the remodel, bringing in abundant natural light. A cased opening connects the living and dining areas to the den—offering a more functional alternative to overly open floor plans. The den showcases a beamed ceiling, wood-burning fireplace with electric logs, and built-in bookshelves and cabinetry, creating a warm, inviting gathering space. The spacious primary suite includes a walk-in closet plus a second closet, and an updated bath with a tub, granite-topped vanity, dressing area with granite countertop, and attractive tile flooring. Two guest bedrooms—one notably large—share an updated hall bath with a granite vanity, raised bowl sink, and replaced tile flooring. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs through the living areas and hallway for durability and ease of maintenance. Major system and efficiency upgrades include all new Pella windows throughout (including sliding patio doors – approx. $20K), replaced attic insulation, updated electrical service with a new panel, new gutters and a new patio covering designed to maximize natural light. The covered patio overlooks a large, fenced backyard with mature trees and a storage building, offering space to relax, garden, or entertain. A two-car rear-entry garage completes the property. A well-balanced home that blends classic character, smart updates, and flexible living—ideally located in one of East Dallas’s most established neighborhoods.
