Nestled on a corner lot in the heart of Dallas’ coveted M Streets, this charming brick cottage blends timeless character with thoughtful updates. Surrounded by tree-lined streets, friendly neighbors, and the classic architecture that defines the neighborhood, this home offers both warmth and enduring appeal. The floor plan lives beautifully, enhanced by a well-designed primary suite addition and an additional den that serves as a cozy secondary living space or private retreat, adding flexibility without sacrificing flow. The home’s original charm has been carefully preserved, including vintage millwork, original hardware, and a delightful hallway bath featuring the era's iconic pink and black tile. The living and dining rooms, secondary bedroom, and sunroom remain true to the home’s original design and are in excellent condition. Oak hardwood floors offer warmth throughout the home, complemented by tile in the baths, and new sculpted Berber carpeting in the den. The remodeled kitchen features timeless shaker-style cabinetry, select reeded glass upper cabinets, granite countertops, and a full suite of Viking appliances, including a built-in refrigerator and commercial-style range. The primary bath offers understated luxury, with a whirlpool tub and a separate steam shower. Additional highlights include updated lighting, built-in audio wiring, and fresh interior paint throughout. A detached two-car garage with a workshop and beautifully landscaped backyard completes the property. This is a rare opportunity to own a home that so seamlessly marries vintage charm with thoughtful updates in one of Dallas’ most beloved neighborhoods.
