D Sale of the Week: 8812 Lakemont Dr.

This midcentury modern comes with free plastic surgery—for the house, that is.

This one comes with free plastic surgery—for the house, that is. The seller knows it's a tough market in Dallas real estate and says he will make cosmetic changes. I'd ask for a little Botox and Juvederm—for me! 8812 Lakemont Dr. looks to be quite perfect, actually. It’s a charming throwback to the Donna Reed years. Built in 1955, she packs in a whopping 2,317 square feet for three living areas, two dining areas, three bedrooms, and three baths. Not to mention the stunning one-third acre, with a fully-stocked Koi pond, in beautiful Bluffview. The house has been fully remodeled with a new kitchen, stainless appliances, and updated baths. I don't see why they are offering “cosmetic changes per owner’s request,” but I guess a new real estate marketing gimmick is born every day. The location cannot be beat, and it’s priced very well for all the updates and square footage. Required wear in this kitchen: aprons. Listed at $549,900.
