This stunning Vickery Place craftsman was completely renovated to the studs in 2016 and thoughtfully updated since, offering timeless charm with modern efficiency. Enjoy soaring 10-foot ceilings, original pine hardwood floors, and authentic craftsman detailing throughout. The open-concept layout is ideal for entertaining, centered around a designer kitchen with navy and white cabinetry, white marble countertops, classic subway tile backsplash, and a KitchenAid appliance package—including a gas range and commercial vent hood. The spacious primary suite features a luxurious custom shower (fully redone in 2021), dual vanities, and herringbone tile floors. Two well-sized secondary bedrooms include one currently used as an office. A second bath impresses with cement tiles and a custom vanity. Significant improvements include a new roof (2025), hot water heater, smart features like Nest thermostat, Rachio WiFi sprinkler system and Meross app for garage and electric gate controls, and extensive drainage systems including French drains and area drains throughout the backyard. Crawl space upgrades include increased height, added joists, humidity-controlled fans, spray foam insulation, and antimicrobial protection. Outside, enjoy a generous backyard with patio and gas-start fire pit, a drywalled 2-car garage with ample storage and a 240V outlet for EV charging or heavy duty appliances. The home also features updated LED lighting throughout, a Vivent security system, fresh interior paint, and a water filter on the kitchen sink. Located on a beautiful interior street with close proximity to Knox-Henderson and Lower Greenville, this home is on a reliable power grid, to date never losing power during extreme weather storms. With outstanding curb appeal, historic character, and every modern convenience, this home is a rare find in one of Dallas’ most beloved neighborhoods.
