7211 Valley View PlaceDallas, TX 75240Price: $1,100,000

Perched above a peaceful creek on a private, heavily treed .56-acre cul-de-sac lot, this home offers something that cannot be manufactured or replicated: a true sense of place. A sweeping deck stretches out over the water and into the tree canopy, built for long evenings, big gatherings, and the kind of outdoor living that makes you cancel every other plan. The creek runs below. The mature trees close around you. The world outside disappears. And the view follows you inside. The living room, kitchen, dining room, primary bedroom, and office all look out over the deck and trees, the best seat in the house is everywhere. This is the canvas. The vision is yours. At 3,232 square feet, the floor plan delivers four bedrooms, three and a half baths, a home office or flex space and a three-car garage that is 735 square feet - a rare combination at this price point in North Dallas. The home carries the warm, unhurried character of its 1978 origins, with a mid-century sensibility that rewards a great designer. It is largely original in condition, and the price reflects that honestly. For the buyer ready to put their stamp on something real, this is the kind of opportunity that doesn't wait, and rarely returns. Fewer than 13 homes have sold on this private street in more than 23 years. The people who find this neighborhood tend to stay, and that tells you everything you need to know about what it is like to live here. Minutes from the Galleria Dallas. Easy highway access and proximity to downtown Dallas. Valley View Park and the White Rock Creek Trail are nearby. This is a home for the buyer who sees what it will become. The deck, the creek, the trees, and the privacy are already here. Everything else can be built. Roof replaced approximately 18 months ago.
