A century-old story is ready for its next chapter. This iconic 1924 Prairie-style full duplex + studio quarters sits proudly on the corner of Woodlawn and Canty and is 101 years strong and listed on the National Historic Registry. With only three owners in its lifetime, one family from 1924 to 2013, it’s a rare Oak Cliff treasure. Thoughtfully renovated in 2013, both 2 bed, 1 bath units blend timeless architectural details with modern comfort. A 180 sq ft studio with half bath adds flexibility and is perfect as a guest space, creative studio, or income generator. Major improvements ensure peace of mind: a full remodel in 2013, new roof in 2021, updated water heaters in both units 2021, and a striking upstairs balcony rebuilt in 2022 with commercial-grade steel and concrete and is now twice the original size. The original carriage doors were replaced with a single modern garage door and opener in 2021. Each unit has access to the two car garage. Located two blocks from Bishop Arts District, one block from Kidd Springs Park, and near Methodist Hospital and downtown Dallas, this home offers walkability, income potential, and unmatched historic character. A true Oak Cliff classic that is rare, reimagined, and ready for its next owner.
