Situated on over half an acre in the established Live Oak Estates of Irving’s Historic Hospital District, this sprawling one-story mid-century estate offers incredible bones, an exceptional floor plan, and timeless architectural character that’s hard to find. Towering grandfather live oaks frame the expansive corner lot, creating a sense of presence and privacy from the moment you arrive. Inside, a wide entry welcomes you into a dramatic sunken living room featuring a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, rich wood-paneled walls, exposed beamed ceilings, Saltillo tile flooring, and a classic wet bar. The formal dining room is generously sized and enhanced with custom built-ins and large windows that bring in beautiful natural light. The kitchen sits at the heart of the home and offers dual ovens, a center island, abundant cabinetry, and extensive counter space. A full-size utility room with built-ins and sink adds convenience and functionality. Formal Dining offers exceptional flexibility and could easily serve as a study. The thoughtfully designed layout offers ideal bedroom separation, including a spacious primary suite with beamed ceilings plus dual en-suite baths with all the extras! Step outside to a massive backyard shaded by mature oak and elm trees, backing to the Delaware Creek canal and offering an abundance of green space. The open patio provides the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining, and the rear-entry two-car garage maintains the home’s classic curb appeal. Ideally located just minutes from DFW Airport, Love Field, Las Colinas, Downtown Dallas, and major highways, this property combines space, character, and convenience in one of Irving’s most established neighborhoods. A rare opportunity to own a sprawling single-story estate with exceptional bones and a fantastic floor plan in a prime location.
