Just minutes from the Bishop Arts District, find a cozy cottage in Hampton Hills with custom updates and a sweet, modern vibe.
The home at 1618 Hollywood Ave. is our Tuesday Two Hundred and it makes the most of a modest footprint, featuring original refinished hardwood floors and tons of windows for plenty of natural light. It has two bedrooms, one bathroom, and 1,260 square feet on one story, built in 1950.
Hampton Hills is a storied neighborhood in North Oak Cliff, established in 1924 and bounded by Clarendon Drive on the north, Wright Street on the south, Oak Cliff Boulevard on the east, and Hampton Road on the west. The area is comprised of about 300 bungalows, brick and stone Tudors, and post-war cottages, like our Tuesday Two Hundred. Hampton Hills is one of the most undisturbed stands of original architecture in Dallas, according to the Heritage Oak Cliff.
First, let’s talk about the adorable curb appeal on this house. Austin stone and red front door look great.
Inside just past the entryway is a large, open room that comprises the living and dining rooms. Fresh interior paint in a neutral palette, hardwoods, a fireplace, and fancy chandelier make it feel comfortable and cozy.
Walking through the dining room, find the completely upgraded kitchen with custom cabinets, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, including a gas range. The washer-dryer are located here, common in homes of this era which didn’t have a dedicated indoor space for the appliances. There’s also a door to the backyard.
The master bedroom features two large closets and both bedrooms have those beautiful hardwoods. They share the one bathroom, a gorgeous upgraded room with quartz vanity tops, custom dual sinks, frameless shower, bathtub, and floor-to-ceiling white subway tile in the wet area. The small baroque chandelier adds a sparkly touch to the room.
In the backyard, find lots of grassy green space, a privacy fence, arbor-covered patio, and storage shed.
This home was listed Jan. 4 by Nick Good with Keller Williams Realty Dallas Preston Road for $280,000.
