Description: 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath, Living/Dining Room, Family Room, Screened Porch with 3 Car Garage built for 2 Cars and Workshop. Corner Lot is 82” X 143” which backs up to Northaven Walking Trail. As you probably know houses in this neighborhood range from $450,000 to $550,000. We have priced the house at $350,000 to allow for a budget to restore or remodel the house. This was our family home. Our parents were born in 1926 and 1929, children of the depression era and young participants of the WWII era. They worked hard, saved their money, and paid cash to build this house when they were just in their early 30's in 1962. They chose this beautiful corner lot. They designed every detail themselves and kept it up perfectly until their death. Our mom dug up the trees herself from her childhood farm and planted them here in 1962. Their grandchildren had such cherished memories of this home that the family hoped to keep it for them to live in. But we are selling it at this time because my daughter has decided to stay in University Park and other family members are not in Dallas. We would rather see another family restore it, enjoy it and build their own family memories. We are selling it “as is” to give the next family the maximum flexibility to remodel it to meet their needs and keep the purchase price down. Consult the floor plan to get room sizes and see if you want to make any major changes to meet your family’s needs. Changes that need to be made immediately: (1) The foundation is pier and beam which is best in this neighborhood. This makes the house easier to repair and maintain. Foundation work will need to be completed before interior work is done. (2) The master bath needs a plan and a remodel. We had begun to remodel this bathroom but stopped to sell the house as it is. We were considering adding French doors and windows to the bedroom which would overlook an updated patio area. (3) A new fence around the back yard is needed (plants and trees are all OK). Interior repairs and changes: (1) Some cracks will need to be repaired after the foundation work is completed (2) Paint where needed (3) Floors are solid, but tile and carpet can be changed or added. Things that are solid and need little or no work: (1) Roof (2) Electrical (3) New gas stove (3) New hot water heater (4) HVAC operates just fine (some ductwork under the house may need to be repaired when the foundation work is done) (5) Plumbing (6) Original built-ins and cabinets are in good shape You will enjoy: (1) Three built in desk/workspaces (2) Built in Kitchen Hutch (3) Built in Entry Cabinets (4) Shaded by Mature Trees (5) The wonderful walking trail just behind the house (6) Neighbors that love this neighborhood and make it great (7) Good public schools and great private schools close to home (8) Great location for University Of Texas Southwest Medical Center (7 miles) (9) Close to Downtown Dallas (11.4 miles) (9) Good access to both LBJ and 35 Perfect North Dallas Location
