About This Property

An Austin Feel, Right in Dallas! Tucked into the rolling hills of Kessler Park, this Mid-Century Modern home offers space, character, and a peaceful setting just minutes from Downtown Dallas.

Homes in this neighborhood rarely hit the market; this is a rare chance to own in one of Dallas' most private, sought-after communities! Perched on a tree-filled hillside, the home is minutes from Downtown Dallas, Bishop Arts, Trinity Groves, and Methodist Dallas Medical Center, with easy access to DFW and Love Field. Combs Creek Trail is one block away, linking to miles of Trinity River trails, and Stephens Park Golf Course is minutes from your door. This home offers the peace of a hidden hillside enclave with true urban convenience.

Designed by renowned architect Ashley Koenig, this Mid-Century Modern home has been featured in D Magazine and on Preservation Dallas home tours. Its open-concept layout was decades ahead of its time and still feels fresh today, flowing from living and dining spaces to a terraced backyard with a sparkling pool and hot tub, ideal for entertaining or a quiet evening outside.

The home features two primary suites! The original preserves its glamorous 1960s flair. The new suite sits at tree level for privacy and treetop views, with a spa-like bath featuring heated floors, a rain shower, steam shower, Neorest bidet, and a soaking tub overlooking the greenery. Both suites open to private decks. A flexible third bedroom with a full bath can serve as an office, studio, or guest suite. A 2015 renovation by JRAF Studio added Crestron automation, a hidden TV lift, whole-home audio, automated shades, energy-efficient windows, walnut doors, a standing seam metal roof, Velux skylights, and a tankless water heater with recirculation.

This is more than a home. It's a piece of Dallas architectural history in a neighborhood where opportunities like this simply don't come around often. Schedule your private showing before it's gone!

Once in a great while, one of the most coveted homes in Kessler Park comes on the market. 1535 Junior in East Kessler belongs in this special pantheon. Custom built in 1958, it remained in the original family, well-maintained for 50 years. In 2007, it was sold to the current owner, who has been an equally good steward of this unique property. Renovations by the current owner in 2014-15 created a marvelous architect-designed primary bedroom suite. Subtle architectural changes were made throughout the home retaining the best of the original cutting edge mid-century design while updating the home for modern tech, audio-visual, and energy efficiency requirements. Situated on a very private .374 acres on one of East Kessler’s finest streets, all living areas are on one level with the exception of the over sized two-car garage one level lower. The manager has listed the unit size as 2839 square feet.
