    On The Market

    Disney Streets midcentury modern returns to Dallas market at a premium

    No, you’re not having déjà vu. You have seen this Disney Streets midcentury modern before. If you missed 11023 Pinocchio Dr. the last time it came on the market, you have another shot — but it’ll cost you.

    The atomic-era house was originally designed by architect George Halfin for the 1954 Parade of Homes. Since then, it’s been on and off the market several times, and just as many times as it’s been featured, the price has gone up.

    Back in 2010, the house was listed for $379,900. In 2014, it was on the market for $450,000. Today, the home is listed with Brittany Hughes of Rogers Healy & Associates for 
$499,500.

    It’s official: People are willing to pay a premium for midcentury modern homes. Particularly those with the trademark details of the era, such as angled windows and cabinets, vaulted and angled ceilings, and clerestory windows. This three-bedroom home has all of that, plus two bathroom with original tile and cabinetry.


    But what’s truly wonderful is that new appliances, countertops, and other fixtures have been updated while leaving all those charming details in place. A fun shower curtain and some accessories could really show off the classic appeal of the pink bathroom.

    The fully enclosed sunroom is another nice feature. It’d be great for hosting some mosquito-free parties, or cozying up with a book and grabbing a spot in the sun during the winter. We can just imagine it with a pair of curvy chaises, or even some modern wicker sectionals.

    Hughes says since it was sold in 2015, the house has been leased as a rental property. (The tenant is willing to vacate after closing, however.) She adds that this property is for someone who wants to put his or her own stamp on it, so vision is a must.

    Lest you have trouble picturing the potential of the home, though, we are showcasing images of what the house looked like when it was full of furniture and on the market back in 2014. For us, that’s all the vision we need.

    Supermarket News

    Small town of Lucas north of Dallas to get its first supermarket

    Lucas Crossing will include a supermarket and other retail spaces.

    There's a new development set for Lucas, a growing town in Collin County east of Allen, that will include its first major grocery store.

    According to a release, a planned development is coming to the northwest corner of Park Road and Southview Drive (FM 1378) consisting of a 130,000-square-foot grocery-anchored shopping center with a 25,000-square-foot restaurant village plus 15 adjacent pad sites and a community park.

    That corner is currently a 42-acre parcel of undeveloped land, one that only the various natural fauna have enjoyed until now. The sale was brokered by Younger Partners Senior VP Michael Ytem and Executive VP Tom Grunnah.

    Ytem says that the project has been years in the making.

    "The extensive planning and city approvals reflect the commitment to bringing a best-in-class development that meets the needs of the growing community," Ytem says.

    According to city of Lucas public records, that will include a Tom Thumb.

    Lucas Mayor Dusty Kuykendall says it "will be our first true grocery store serving the community." There is a Walmart Supercenter at 2662 W Lucas Rd. But no standalone supermarkets.

    Lucas currently has nearly 10,000 residents, with no multifamily or high-density neighborhoods. Kuykendall says that home lots tend to be around two acres with an average value of $1.2 million. Sufficient to warrant a supermarket.

    Kuykendall says also that the project will increase their sales tax base, which will bolster funds for infrastructure and roads.

    "This will be a unique addition to the largely residential town because it is all commercial with some green spaces included," Kuykendall says. "Our feedback on materials, the aesthetic and the layout were all incorporated. For some time, our residents have wanted a full-service restaurant, and this planned development will incorporate a few of these."

    The development is positioned to serve not only Lucas but also neighboring communities including Parker, North Wylie, Northeast Murphy, and St. Paul.

    “The planned development will create a dynamic new retail destination for the area and tremendous amenities for the region,” Grunnah said. “This transaction will have a lasting impact on the community and create value for the city, its residents and the new property owners.”
