Among Dallas’s most iconic neighborhoods, Lake Highlands stands out for a number of reasons. Just north of White Rock Lake, this sought-after community offers a ton of culture and activities. Here, residents enjoy access to the White Rock Creek Greenbelt as well as diverse dining and exciting entertainment options. A lot of these traditional midcentury homes have undergone complete renovations so modern aesthetics blend seamlessly against classic mid-century designs. In this week’s Inwood Home of the Week sponsored by Inwood National Bank, we’re excited to show you a home that features the absolute best of both worlds.
Sterling Mack of Fathom Realty has 9616 Ravensway Drive listed for $875,000. This 2,761-square-foot, four-bedroom, three-bathroom marvel has been completely reimagined. The Erickson Group recently renovated this home and spared no expense when it came to curating superior style. In this home, you’ll find elegance that inspires around every corner and discover designer touches in each detail. Let’s explore.
“We thoroughly enjoyed working on the Ravensway house,” says Amy Erickson, the home’s principal designer. “We wanted to keep it warm and welcoming with a transitional modern design.”
First, this home looks incredible from the curb. It features a huge front lawn with tons of potential. Also, the refinished façade and stone accents give this home sophisticated natural touches.
Upon entering, you’ll find the layout and flow make each space open and inviting. Muted interior tones mixed with light hardwood flooring give one the feeling of modern comfort. Also, multiple picture windows pull in an abundance of natural light.
“Our palette throughout the home is neutral and timeless, a mostly clean white color scheme with a lot of mixed metal finishes, wood tones, and pops of sophisticated accents for interest,” says Erickson. “We love how the home feels open and bright, with the three large picture windows in the front bringing in an abundance of natural light.”
From the entrance, you’re greeted with a beautiful formal dining room to your immediate right. Then, the rest of the home unfolds around a spacious living room that features knockout natural built-ins and an eye-catching gas fireplace.
The kitchen transitions over an immaculate eat-in island with a bar. Shaker-style soft-close cabinetry and tons of prep space make this kitchen a chef’s paradise. Also, the four-burner gas range sets the tone for maximum style.
Downstairs features three completely remodeled bedrooms and two breathtaking bathrooms. The Erickson Group knocked this one out of the park, renovating every space. With so much square footage, this home is perfect for growing families.
“We wanted to incorporate a few unexpected design choices in the home,” says Erickson. “Like the various shades of moss-green tile in the guest shower and the beautiful aged-brass shower and bathroom faucets. A lot of attention was given to the light fixtures, faucets, and hardware throughout the home, focusing on quality and design.”
Then, the primary bedroom awaits upstairs. This room offers a stunning second-story view and includes its own balcony. Talk about a perfect retreat.
The primary bathroom is a stunning spa oasis. Here, dual vanities wrap around before an oversized walk-in shower and stand-alone soaking tub. Also, the tile work is truly unique and exudes sophistication.
Then, the primary suite’s walk-in closet could be a bedroom of its own. This spacious room is flanked by beautiful built-ins on each wall.
This home also features an incredible media room tucked away on the top floor. This is the perfect place for family movie night and could also make an incredible office.
The backyard has tons of entertaining potential and would make the perfect play space for pets and the family.
If you’re looking for incredible design and an abundance of space, this Lake Highlands home is your new sanctuary.
