Kiestwood isn’t just outside of Oak Cliff. It is Oak Cliff. The thing is, It’s so wonderfully wooded and hilly, it feels like a getaway…like you’re much farther from the city than you actually are. In this fabulous little neighborhood, there’s a house that Compass Real Estate’s Jenni Stolarski calls a great rambling ranch.
It’s a real showpiece of a house. A total stunner that’s full of amazing details — the kind that make you think there’s a professional behind this. And in the case of 2515 Gladiolus, there most definitely is.
It’s Sara Garza of Garza Interiors personal home. Not a shocker, she has an impeccable eye. From the deep gray green on the brick to the perfect complementary orange on the door, this lady knows what’s up.
The blonde wood floors tie into the neutral walls and create a look you’d find in a catalog. In the entry, I know that tile. I just ordered a sample for my shower. I found it on tilebar.com and if you haven’t searched that site, get ready to live. It’s filled with everything from simple and understated to trendy and tile-tastic? I don’t know about that word, but the selection is top notch.
You know what? I can tell you how great this house is and how much I absolutely freaking love it, but sometimes it’s best to hear it straight from the source. Take it away, Sara Garza…
“The living room is one of our favorite rooms we first renovated — the sky lights, windows, and white terrazzo floors give tons of natural light. Our friends love hanging out in that room; it has a great vibe. We redid our bedroom to feel like we were in a cozy hotel room. We wanted it to be funky to fit our style, comfortable to hang out in, and have plenty of storage. While designing the kid’s bath, the goal was to feel fun with pops of color and cool tile to match their personalities.”
I mean, mission accomplished? She pretty much nailed everything she set out to do. They mix of materials, styles and statement pieces make this house feel super homey and totally original. I bet she’d be happy to help you create your coveted space, too. Or just cut to the chase and buy this one. It just hit the market for $550,000.
If you’d like to check it out, head to 2515 Gladiolus on Sunday, Nov. 14 from 1 to 3 p.m.
