Opportunities don’t often come along to own a Dallas home designed by O’Neil Ford, the legendary, Sherman-born architect and champion of the Texas Regionalist architectural style. But that’s exactly what is available now at 5366 Montrose Drive: a one-of-a-kind, four-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence located on an expansive, tree-shaded corner lot in the city’s quiet and elegant Greenway Parks neighborhood.
This two-story, 4,536-square-foot, white-brick masterpiece, one of Ford’s first solo commissions, was built in 1933, but in recent years underwent a thorough renovation. That updating, however, took care to leave intact the rich signatures of Ford’s work, including a number of unique wood moldings and doors handcrafted by his brother, Lynn Ford.
Two of those doors are visible as soon as you enter the cheery front foyer, distinguished for its white walls and limestone-tile floor. To the left there’s an airy formal dining room with a polished hardwood floor and floor-to-ceiling paned windows, and then a vestibule leading to a long, stately, wood-floored formal living room with a fireplace.
The living room gives way to a sitting room and also a study, both with tall paned windows and grand views of the spectacular backyard. Just down the hall from the study is the updated modern kitchen, complete with a large island, granite countertops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Thermador oven, and other state-of-the-art appliances.
Up the wooden stairs, which are adorned with distinctive brass railings, the home’s bedrooms are generously sized, with still more wonderful views of the leafy-green yard. The master boasts hardwood floors, an oversized sitting room and a beautifully appointed bathroom with twin sinks, a shower and sunken tub and a huge walk-in closet. A second bedroom is nearly as large as the master, while the other two are just as airy and pleasant as the others.
This rare jewel of a home also offers a sizeable laundry room, a two-car garage, multiple outdoor patio areas, a swimming pool with a waterfall feature, and wonderfully mature foliage and trees for privacy. Its graceful, upscale Greenway Parks neighborhood, named one of Texas’ Best Places by the Texas Society of Architects in 2002, is located three miles north of downtown Dallas and is convenient to the Dallas North Tollway. The walkable, park-filled community also is close by good public and private schools and top-of-the-line shopping.
