Sometimes a renovation is more like an “elevation.” When remodeling and updating, homeowners can choose to take the existing structure and transform it, or they can elevate it into something altogether new and fabulous. That’s what these sellers have done to this North Oak Cliff traditional.
The owners not only capitalized on the home’s location just outside of Kessler Park and down the street from Methodist Dallas Medical Center, perched on a hilltop in one of the fastest-growing areas of Dallas, but they made it feel completely fresh, as if it was transported from the Texas Hill Country.
This listing from David Griffin & Co. Realtor Robert Kucharski has only been on the market for four days, with a broker open house scheduled for 10 a.m. to noon on Thursday, but it’s the kind of High Caliber Home of the Week that won’t last long.

The home was not only completely renovated with museum finish walls and rich hardwood floors, but 636 W. Colorado Blvd. was also expanded. It now has three bedrooms and three full baths, with a second story master suite that will knock your socks off. Other upgrades include new HVAC, Pella windows and doors, new electrical and plumbing, and a standing-seam roof that pull together the Texas Hill Country contemporary aesthetic.
With 2,338 square feet, a large updated kitchen with custom cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, plus a huge backyard, it’s priced to move at $639,000. That comes out to a little more than $273 per square foot, which is close to the middle of the pack when it comes to homes inside the 75208 Zip code. It’s the finish out that sets it apart from the rest, though.
The bedrooms and bathrooms are all modern and open feeling, flooded with light thanks to the copious windows. The two downstairs full baths feature Carrara marble on the walls and modern vanities with European-style commodes. Upstairs is the master suite, which has two beautiful built-in bookcases flanking a window seat that overlooks the backyard. On one side you’ll find a study, and on the other is the amazing contemporary bath with two-person tub and spacious dual sink vanity. My only gripe? No ceiling fans to be found. Most Texans I know can’t sleep in summer without the breeze from a ceiling fan!
Outside you’ll fall in love with the Texas Native landscape, which was installed by one of the homeowners, Jim Martinez. Sage and succulents with Texas pebble pathways go so perfectly with the home’s outdoor living spaces. It’s such a treat to take in!
