5933 Oram Street, Dallas4336 Taos Road, Dallas1149 E. Hickory Hill Road, Argyle

That bright floral wreath on the door. Or the simple brass door knocker. Or how about the color of that door? Inside, well-loved antiques or straight-lined metal? Or both?

There are the country houses, the edgy condos, and the white-columned traditionals. The real estate market is full of individual choices, and homeowners get to express themselves in those choices. Reasons people choose their homes, decorate their abodes and maintain their casas can say something about the residents.

Your home reflects who you are. Maybe you grab the little black dress before heading out to a party so you can just blend in. Is your house the same? If you’re the one who wants to shine through like entertainer Billy Porter’s 2019 Oscar tuxedo, then a wild guess might predict that your home nest is feathered in multi-colored and bespangled feathers.

This week’s daltxrealestate.com open houses are anything but cookie-cutter. If where you lay your head is uniquely yours, more power to you. Here are some homes that might be what your own personality wants and needs to call home.

5933 Oram Street, Dallas

Let’s start with the artwork in this Dallas duplex. Artwork throughout was created by noted Dallas muralist Abel Garcia. Known for his bright colors and graffiti style, the artist’s work is anything but boring and is found in celebrities’ private collections.

The owners are open to selling some of the duplex’s furnishings, so if you like what you see, it could be yours.

Hallways don’t have to be boring.

Built in 2016, the duplex is located in lower Greenville and features a private rooftop patio to enjoy the views. Inside the single-family residence, there’s more to like in its 3,295 square feet. The first level provides separate living and dining rooms for entertaining, while the second entertainment space upstairs features a wet bar.

Unique art gives this home its own personality.

The four bedrooms and four baths are split among the two levels. Downstairs is the primary bedroom, complete with an oversized walk-in closet and an ensuite bathroom featuring a walk-in shower, double vanity, and a garden tub. The three upstairs bedrooms feature attached bathrooms.

Now if this duplex has a little too much personality, there’s a budget included for it to reflect a different style. The buyer has made available a $20,000 budget for paint and flooring.

Harrison Hall with Regal Realtors will hold this duplex open from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

4336 Taos Road, Dallas

The Bluffview neighborhood, south of Northwest Highway and east of Midway Road, is the site of this white contemporary home on Taos Road. Priced at $2.05 million, its strong lines are sure to grab attention.

Contemporary lines give this Bluffview home its own personality.

High ceilings and oversized glass windows flood the home with natural light throughout its open floor plan. This home, built in 2009, features sophisticated styling throughout its 4,227 square feet.

In case the new homeowner is the outgoing type, this house includes lots of space for entertaining friends. In addition to a large kitchen with Viking appliances, the house includes a 1,000-bottle wine room. The pool and patio area provides another spot for hosting guests with the firepit and outdoor kitchen.

Cooking in this sleek kitchen could make entertaining friends fun.

The first floor is where you’ll find the primary bedroom with a luxurious bathroom, an adjacent exercise room, and office space. Upstairs there are a living area, two bedrooms with ensuite baths, and a storage room.

This home, listed by Nicole Womack and Kay Weeks with Ebby Halliday, will be held open from 1 to 3 p.m. May 28.

1149 E. Hickory Hill Road, Argyle

Want to enter a storybook? Go through the private gate of this estate in Argyle, and it’s as if you’ve arrived in an enchanted forest with a fairy-tale house at the end of the lane.

This storybook house is located on a wooded lot, behind a private gate.

Built in 2001, this rock-covered, multi-gabled house includes a romantic Juliette balcony. It’s listed at $2.75 million and contains five bedrooms and seven baths in its 5,363 square feet. Inside the doors, gleaming pine floors, hand-milled doors, and stained glass windows add to the storybook qualities of this home.

The home’s oversized fireplace adds a cozy feel to the living room.

The focal point of the large living room is an eye-catching wood-burning fireplace, measuring 7 by 5 feet. The living room opens to the gourmet kitchen — all the better for cookie-making — complete with dual sinks, dual dishwashers, an ice maker, and top-notch appliances. Also on the first floor are a formal dining room, an owners’ suite, and a guest suite. The second floor features three more bedrooms with full bathrooms.

The estate’s backyard feels like a country retreat, complete with an outdoor kitchen. The swimming pool is no ordinary backyard pool. A slide, water feature, and spa highlight the heated, saltwater pool.

It’s an enchanting place to call home.

This home, listed by Kaki Lybbert with Century 21 Judge Fite Company, will be held open from 1 to 3 p.m. Saturday.
