This is one of my favorite areas in Dallas, one that always holds a ton of promise and where we can see evidence of real estate development progress every day. I am talking about Thornberry Lane, right off Northwest Highway, west of Midway but before Mixon and Marsh. To the north and east are multi million dollar homes — even some of the homes on Thornberry have been scraped. You are close to everything, from Lovers/Inwood to Northwest Highway and Midway, and Preston Center is a mile or two east. I think development west of here will continue. It’s a little noisy, yes, because of the traffic but hello, we are living in a big city now, not a farmstand. And yes, Love Field might get busier and noisier but the proximity to Love is almost intoxicating: I am off to D/FW in the early am and dreading that morning drive already. Come October, I’ll be able to hop on Southwest to San Jose and leave from Love. That’s what I call love!
Plus this home would be a great investment to live in, or lease out, while you farm the almost one-half acre lot for future development. Asking price won’t break the bank even with student loans: $249,000!
Drawback: 9403 Thornberry has only two bedrooms, and one bath, but one very decked out bath. You get 1534 square feet, cute formals, updated kitchen with a breakfast bar, back wood deck, great trees and except for a busy street on one side, location. I am sure the home builders have this home bookmarked. Check it out. I bet it’s gone by next week when I return from Cali. If it’s not, well, I may buy it!
