CHECK OUT THE HOUSE TOUR ON YOUTUBE @sarahlyonsrealestate As you make breakfast, the sunrise greets you through the kitchen window. You savor living on a ridgetop facing east.
You appreciate your three-bedroom home&#39's mid-century touches: the stacked-stone fireplace, the wide soffits, &#38' the two exuberant bathrooms (green-tiled for the boys, pink-tiled for the girls —hey, it was built in the Truman era). You adore the gorgeous floor of red oak that looks new because it was protected by wall-to-wall carpet until 2022. This house has soul.
The day&#39's errands &#38' commute are convenient because of your home&#39's fantastic location. It&#39's tucked in a placid neighborhood that&#39's three minutes to Tom Thumb, Sprouts, the public library, Walgreens and Camp Bowie &#38' a few minutes to schools, the Trinity River trailhead, Whole Foods at Waterside, &#38' I-30. Downtown is just 10 minutes away!
In the evening you grill on the back patio, in the shade of cedars. The green, spacious yard has room for friends and family (and pets) to romp in the sun.
When people say a house has character, they usually mean it has problems. But this house has character because it was built in an optimistic era, expressed in architecture. When each house on every block looked different. When architects on the West Side designed mid-century modern houses for middle-class families.
You were pleased that the previous owner left the mechanical systems in sound shape: The roof was replaced in 2019. The electrical panel (meeting current code) &#38' recessed lights were installed in 2021. The floors were refinished, &#38' the inside of the house painted, in 2022. The original galvanized plumbing was replaced by free-flowing, freeze-resistant PEX plumbing in 2023, &#38' the water heater was replaced at the same time. The air conditioning &#38' heating system was replaced in April 2025. In all, more than $60,000 in improvements.
Because the home was move-in ready, you were able to adapt it to suit your taste — on your timeline.
