Have you been to the Heights?  It is a well hidden treasure with an outstanding central location that lies in between Belt Line and Arapaho just West of 75.

This cluster of “Mid-century modern” homes takes you to another time as you drive down the mature tree lined streets.  With a park located in the heart of the neighborhood that boasts two well maintained tennis courts, and an endless strip of land, you might be tempted to bring lunch and set up a picnic.

The area is a bit of a secret where real estate prices are concerned.  They still have yet to catch up in my opinion.  While other areas closer to the interior of Dallas like Lake Highlands or Greenland Hills have housing prices upwards of $200 per square foot, some Richardson Heights homes can be priced in the low $100’s per sq. ft.  

I also like the lot sizes.  Many of the lots are larger than their Dallas counterparts which places them in an ideal position for future renovation. Also, as new housing communities have traveled further North as this area has been developed – resale values should keep increasing as well. 

 These homes have the kind of character that was built like their pier and beam foundations, rock solid and from the ground up. With large lots, traditional hardwoods floors and 1950’s allure, I see this neighborhood becoming a fan favorite among young up and comers for a very long time.
