Location
Discover a rare rental in the heart of Lakewood: a beautifully renovated 1938 Tudor offering 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,640 sq ft of light-filled living. Set on a quiet corner lot beneath mature pecan trees, this home blends historic charm—arched doorways, original hardwoods, coffered ceiling—with modern comfort, including designer lighting, Elfa closets, and a chef’s kitchen with abundant cabinetry. This lease offers exceptional value: all utilities (water, gas, electricity, high-speed internet via Spectrum) and services (lawn, garden, pest control, and security system) are provided by the owner. No need to set up accounts or worry about extreme summer bills—just move in and enjoy. Natural light pours in through nearly floor-to-ceiling black-framed windows, offering serene garden views from every window. The primary suite features a tranquil color palette, and the ensuite bath—originally a sunroom—opens directly onto a private garden patio, perfect for slow mornings or quiet evenings by the fire. Outdoor living is equally thoughtful: bluestone patios, curated gardens, two fire features (including one carved into a sandstone boulder), and custom lighting. Curated outdoor furniture and a lush collection of potted plants—both included—enhance the tranquil setting. The detached two-car garage also comes with an air compressor and EV charger (charging costs separate). Walk to the YMCA, bike to White Rock Lake, or spend your weekend in your own peaceful, turn-key retreat. This is East Dallas living at its finest—effortless, beautiful, and distinctly personal. Rarely does a rental feel this much like a forever home.
