About this home
This ranch style home with a modern flair sits quietly tucked away on tranquil Nob Hill in the heart of Kessler Park. Four bedrooms and two full bathrooms, all on one level, offer versatility and style. With sophisticated vibes, pops of color, and touches of whimsical wallpaper, this home is anything but cookie-cutter. Multiple indoor and outdoor living spaces and an open kitchen-den area create a perfect arrangement for entertaining, complemented by a butler’s pantry and walk-in pantry off the kitchen for tons of extra storage. As an added bonus, the huge 27 x 27 garage has a mini-split to provide additional options for living or working space, workshop or home gym (plus huge additional storage space upstairs in the garage). Current owners have completed extensive upgrades to back yard including grading, French drains, landscaping, fence, and deck as well as plumbing, smart fixtures, and more. Just minutes from Downtown, Bishop Arts, Stevens Park, Coombs Creek trail, and more, your oasis awaits.

Kessler, located between Bishop Arts District and Stevens Park, is a historic and hillside Dallas neighborhood with winding boulevards and limestone-and-brick architecture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Sylvan Avenue bridge over the Trinity River, where skyline views, cyclists, and runners set a steady rhythm. Tudor cottages and mid-century ranch homes sit under mature oaks, with dramatic elevation changes rare in Dallas. The Kessler Theater anchors live music nights, while nearby Oak Cliff Coffee Roasters and Lucia shape the local dining-and-cafe circuit. Stevens Park Golf Course and Coombs Creek Trail add green space and long, scenic walks. Streets feel quiet and curated, with pocket parks and stone retaining walls framing the terrain.
