Property Description
Introducing 1937 Marydale Drive—an authentic Eclectic French Farmhouse designed by acclaimed architect Charles Dilbeck, whose romantic style helped shape the architectural identity of Dallas and beyond. Rarely does a home come along that offers this architectural pedigree, unmatched charm, and superb location. Coming to the market for the first time in over 60 years! Every Dilbeck, it tells its own story—1937 Marydale's unfolds along a meandering stone pathway, leading through lush gardens to whimsical French Norman–inspired chamber doors that feel like the entrance to a secret passageway. Beyond the Dutch door entry, the cozy vestibule opens into spacious formals, where Dilbeck's signature details abound, such as: HAND-HEWN TIMBER BEAMS, a dining room crowned with a stunning DIAGONAL PATTERNED FOUR QUADRANTS CEILING with an original POTTER ART iron light fixture, and of course, Dilbeck's most significant feature; a 11 x 6 EXPANSIVE BRICK FIREPLACE. The fireplace anchors the living area and features a hand-carved cowboy theme mantle, multiple stepped “shelves” and wrought iron accoutrements. The home has mostly preserved its historic integrity with the exception of a thoughtfully integrated rear kitchen addition, updated electrical service and whole house HVAC upgrades. This enchanting home sits nestled among lush gardens and mature trees providing a storybook setting in desirable Stevens Park Estates, just blocks from the golf course and only minutes to Bishop Arts and the new Sprouts Market. This rare home celebrates one of Dallas' most beloved architects and has been called one of Dilbeck's 'GREATEST RANCH HOUSES OF HIS CAREER' by the founder of the Dilbeck Conservancy. This is more than a home—it's a legacy and a work of art.
