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? Each week, we scout out three open houses in three different neighborhoods that look well worth the trip.
6924 Santa Barbara Drive | Saturday, 2-4pm
The Neighborhood: Hillside
The Price: $799,000
The Square Footage: 3,137
Why It Looks Cool: Located near White Rock and the SoPac trail, this newly constructed home blends native Texas materials with striking California architecture. The interior design looks as wonderfully interesting as you might imagine.
5656 N Central Expry 901 | Sunday, 1-4pm
The Neighborhood: M Streets/Vickery Place
The Price: $1,530,000
The Square Footage: 3,244
Why It Looks Cool: Deep down, don’t we all want to pull an Eloise and live in a fancy hotel? If it can’t be The Plaza, we’d be okay with the Palomar (sorry, The Highland) and it’s stunning views of SMU.
3616 Edgewater Street | Sunday, 3:30-5pm
The Neighborhood: Oak Lawn
The Price: $1,199,000 {both duplex sides}
The Square Footage: 2,941
Why It Looks Cool: This handsome Mediterranean duplex has serious dream home potential. Elegant finishes? Check. Great location? Check. A kitchen large enough for twenty people to play Catchphrase in? Check.
