This Lovely Lake Park Estates Home Is Ready for Your Expert Touch

9922-Donegal

As some of our East Dallas-dwelling Daltxrealestate.com team will tell you, Lake Park Estates is one of those neighborhoods that used to be a well-kept secret. Tucked between Garland Road, E. Lake Highlands Drive, and just across the street from Buckner Blvd., people flocked to this popular enclave of midcentury homes when they discovered they could live near White Rock Lake and not pay $1 million-plus.

“Lake Park Estates has long been a great value for its prime location,” says Jenny Capritta of RE/MAX DFW Associates, who has the listing for this week’s Inwood Home of the Week, sponsored by Inwood National Bank. “You’re only a few blocks to White Rock Lake Park!”

So, in this great neighborhood, down Donegal Drive, this 1950-built gem rests under a mighty sycamore tree on a one-third acre setting. The three-bedroom, one-bath home feels much bigger than its 1,462 square feet and that’s before any updates. Capritta points out that the common wall between the kitchen and living-dining area can be removed with proper support.

Now imagine the room without the furniture and drapes, and you can see how much potential this home has. A striking wall color and those gorgeous, original solid oak hardwood floors? Yes, please.

The expansive backyard has a park-like setting with a lush irrigated lawn and a wood privacy fence. The roof and gutters are only three years old, as well as the updated electrical panel. The listing states the home is sold as is with no repairs, but perusing the seller’s disclosure I gather that’s because it’s an estate of the home’s original owners and the HVAC unit needs replacement. Not a deal breaker by any means at all. For a home under $500k in this neighborhood, you’re already ahead of the game.

The home feeds into the award-winning Hexter Elementary. Lake Park Estates is close to the northeast shores of White Rock Lake, the Dallas Arboretum, and Casa Linda Shopping Center. Plus you’re a stone’s throw from The Dumpling Place, The Package Store, and Good Friends. “The best burger bar in Dallas,” Capritta shares.

Oh and here’s a fun fact. All but one of the streets in the area are named after Irish locations or themes: Athlone, Bridget, County Cork, Donegal, Erin, Galway, Kilarney, Limerick, Tipperary, Tralee, Waterford, and Wicklow. So “May the road rise up to meet you” for this home.

Jenny Capritta of RE/MAX DFW Associates has listed 9922 Donegal Drive for $419,000. She’s hosting an open house from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, July 16.
