IF I could choose one house in Dallas as a prime example of how to re-imagine a 1990’s era home, 6049 Glendora would be the winner hands-down. Here is a home, built in 1991, when interior ceilings soared to their highest so we could be closer to God and the angels, that looks like it just rolled out of 2022. The sellers rolled up their sleeves and remodeled a well-built, well-designed home to divine perfection.
Let me tell you what 6049 Glendora has going for it that not every Preston Hollow home has.
First, location: the home is sited on one of Preston Hollow’s prettiest blocks. The area is lush with trees and large, leafy lots that can handle pools and play areas.
Great floor plan: this, you cannot recreate. The front door opens to a grand view of the beautiful yard and pool, while dividing the first floor into two effective wings: east wing for the off-foyer study (the one you keep pretty) and the guest bedroom, the west wing for the casual living areas and the generous master suite.
A second bedroom downstairs: this is so rare, because most floor plans just cannot fit them in on smaller lots. 6049 Glendora has a generous enough lot at .34 of an acre (100 BY 150) to get in BOTH an extra bedroom and a study, not to mention a first floor master suite. Seldom in Park Cities, and rarely in Preston Hollow, do you get ALL THREE.
Pristine condition: again, so many homes have to be “cleaned up” by the agent, this home has been superbly maintained and cared for, and the interior design is truly professional.
At just over 5600 square feet, Glendora has two dining areas and two living areas, ideal for large gatherings and entertaining. The Master bedroom is tucked behind the main living area with a dual-sided fireplace that marries the Master spa bath to the large bedroom, offering two separate walk-in closets. The open kitchen features premium upgrades like an induction cooktop, a dual-convection oven, and even a touchless faucet. All of the rooms have views of the backyard oasis, which includes a heated pool, a covered cabana, a phantom-screened porch, and stunning landscaping.
Upstairs are two en suite bedrooms, a game room and exercise room: perfect for older children, a home office, or guests. There is a spacious three car garage with extra storage that opens to the front, yielding more security and yard space.
This is your ultimate move-in ready opportunity: the home has been pre-inspected, re-painted and re-roofed (2017, 2018) and the front windows are new low e thermo. A rare buy in a sea of $3 to $4 million dollar homes, 6049 Glendora is offered for $2,395,000.
