5822 Swiss Avenue Dallas TX 75214 MLS #21092976

5822 Swiss was designed by architect Marshall Barnett and built by contractor D.A. Barnett in 1924. This eclectic house is considered generally Progressive in design but exhibits understated characteristics of the Tudor style, while its triple-arched entry porch is more reminiscent of Mediterranean homes. Architects of the day called this combined style of architecture “not taking it too straight” because of the overall non adherence to any particular design vernacular.
