Historic Oak Cliff character takes on a polished new life at 708 Blaylock Dr, a renovated Tudor-style home directly across from Lake Cliff Park. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 1,246 square feet, this distinctive residence pairs authentic Austin Stone masonry and magical curb appeal with show-stopping interiors designed for modern living.
The open floor plan is enriched by warm wood flooring, built-in shelving, and abundant storage. In the kitchen, custom cabinetry surrounds an oversized commercial-style café range, creating a memorable workspace for ambitious home cooks and casual entertainers alike. Thoughtful updates extend well beyond the finishes: newer HVAC and hot water heater, along with plumbing, foundation, roofing, drainage, and privacy-fencing improvements, support confidence for the next owner. Out back, a detached shed with its own heating and cooling offers intriguing flexibility for a studio, workshop, hobby room, or temperature-controlled storage. From the front porch, enjoy lake views and an immediate connection to the park’s green space, walking paths, and scenic surroundings.
The address places you in Dallas’s historic Oak Cliff area, with the restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and nightlife of the Bishop Arts District close at hand. W. H. Adamson High School is nearby, and the Dallas Zoo is approximately 1.1 miles away. Rich in architectural personality yet thoroughly refreshed, this move-in-ready home delivers a rare combination of period charm, practical upgrades, park-front scenery, and one of Oak Cliff’s most engaging locations, all in a distinctly Dallas setting.
