This home is situated on unique piece of property in North Oak Cliff. A very much up and coming area close to downtown Dallas. There are lots of new restaurants popping up and recently a trolley line to downtown Dallas has been funded. The property has three huge oak trees and a creek with a foot bridge. The house itself offers striking geometry and unusual interior volumes that focus on the park-like views. The size of the house is 1,500 square feet - though it feels much larger with its open floor plan. The home can easily host a gathering for 30 people and is great for entertaining. There is covered parking for three vehicles and 600 square feet of hardwood decking. The roofing of the house and carport is standard seam metal and has a life expectancy of 50 years. There are two full bedrooms and two full baths with very nice appointments. The upstairs bedroom has its own private deck up in the trees. The oak flooring has been recycled from an estate in east Dallas. There is a large three-sided stone fireplace with three openings - one for the dining area, one fore the living area, and one for the deck. The kitchen is large and was designed for cooking with lots of preparation space on soapstone counters. All exterior walls and the roof are framed with 2 X 6 boards and are packed with insulation. The floor is supported by 2 X 12 boards at 24" on center and is also well insulated. The exterior finish is stucco. All fixed windows are double-glazed contributing even further to efficiency. The house rests on approximately 40 oversized and over-reinforced concrete piers, drilled to bedrock. Design of the house was by a national award-winning designer and engineering was by a nationally recognized engineer. Design of the structure began two and one-half years ago and construction began a few months later. The house was designed to equal or surpass $500,000 homes being built closeby. The price of the house has been significantly lowered from initial offering.
