What a fantastic opportunity to live in one of the most coveted areas of Dallas! The Peninsula is an amazing neighborhood on the eastern shore of White Rock Lake, with splendid views of the lake and a small-town feel. It’s an amazing area with neighbors who care about maintaining the quality of life. There are some phenomenal homes here, too, whether brand new or restored.
But if you want to try your hand at living in this neighborhood before you commit to buy, this incredible traditional at 9520 W. Lake Highlands Drive is the way to go. It’s a beautiful three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home with unobstructed views of White Rock Lake from its expansive deck. It’s listed for rent from Dave Perry-Miller agent Janice G. Parson for $4,400 a month. That’s pretty reasonable, considering the only home on MLS in this exclusive neighborhood is priced at $1.1 million.
Inside you’ll find pristine interiors with a very beachy feel, including a dining area that opens to the living room. The 2,100-square-foot home sits on a huge lot, too, at 0.42 acres. There are two fireplaces, two living areas, a lovely little kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and tons of windows everywhere. For privacy, you’ve got window screens and plantation shutters — fantastic for when the late afternoon light feels as if it could singe your eyebrows! But when the sun is about to set, you can throw those windows open for the most incredible views.
The master suite is huge, clocking in at 25 x 18, and includes a sitting area that is currently used as an office. I love all of the windows that let in tons of light and great views of the sunsets you’ll enjoy from this vantage point of the lake. Very romantic.
And the master bath is updated, with new tile and granite counters. There’s tons of storage, too. Really, this is a unique house and a great place for any family coming to Dallas thanks to one of the many recent corporate relocations we’ve had recently, and wants to live right next to Dallas’ crown jewel.
