Do you like to home ogle? Do you like driving by houses and thinking to yourself, “I’ve been in there before; the indoor pool was quite appealing.” Do you actually need to find a new home? We’ve got you covered with several eligible and architecturally significant dwellings across Dallas.

3636 University Blvd. | Sunday, Noon-2pm

The Neighborhood: University Park

The Price: $3,990,000

The Appeal: The 1930s modern home designed by Frank Welsch and George Woo underwent a meticulous facelift that preserved the custom, architectural craftsmanship and added a bocce ball court

2707 State St. | Sunday, 2-4pm

The Neighborhood: Uptown

The Price: $2,850,000

The Appeal: Sure, this seems to be primarily set up as an office space, and is, perhaps, best suited as such. But hey, maybe you’re looking for offices! Regardless, an 80s-era Victorian-style house in Uptown is worth a look.

4009 Armstrong Ave. | Sunday, 3-5pm

The Neighborhood: Highland Park

The Price: $18,000,000

The Appeal: The gated home was built by the first mayor of Highland Park, William Ott Connor, in the 1940s, and its in pretty great shape. Go pay it a visit, and cross your fingers that it falls into the hands of someone who will love it for its history, not just its land.

5700 Westover Ct. | Sunday, 2-4pm

The Neighborhood: Fort Worth

The Price: $2,900,000

The Appeal: It’s hard to pick a favorite thing about 5700 Westover Court. Do we go with the black lacquered kitchen and its Lacanche Sully range, or the major curb appeal points scored by its striking red brick exterior? Maybe we opt for the fact that this 1940s home is a shining paradigm of the power of restoration? On second thought, that was a cruel exercise we inflicted upon ourselves, and we refuse to pick.

5200 Milam Street | Sunday, 3-5pm 

The Neighborhood: Cochran Heights

The Price: $519,000

The Appeal: Dilbeck’s unique touch and architectural details, including decorative brickwork and an oversized fireplace, can still be found throughout 40s-era home, but a beautifully updated kitchen, new slate tile-lined sunroom, white marble-filled bathroom, and lots and *lots* of fresh white paint bring the classic cottage up to date.
