    On the Market

    Carefully renovated Hollywood Heights Tudor just begs to be bought

    A Dallas Tudor has escaped the fate of so many historic homes thanks to a remodel that blends original features with smart updates. Located at 811 Monte Vista Dr. in Hollywood Heights, the home comes with a price tag of $524,000, listed with Britt Lopez of Dallas City Center Realtors.

    We first spied this beauty on Candy’s Dirt. It has 1,889 square feet, three bedrooms and two full baths. The brick-and-stone facade has been preserved, and thoughtful landscaping, with pops of color, adds to the curb appeal.

    Inside the original features include a Rookwood Pottery fireplace, hardwood floors, sconces and stained glass. But the kitchen and bathrooms are totally up-to-date.

    In the kitchen find Caesarstone counters, marble and glass tile backsplash, Kitchen Aid stainless steel appliances, and built-in wine fridge and Miele coffee system. A banquette provides ample seating in the breakfast nook.

    For more formal meals there is a spacious dining room, where a period fixture hangs over the table as a reminder of this home’s 1930 build date.

    Bathrooms are known to sell houses, and these might do the trick. The master bath has white marble tile, double vanity with ample storage and a large walk-in shower with bench. The second bath was renovated just as thoughtfully, with to-the-ceiling white subway tile in the bath and shower surround, antique vanity, and black border on the otherwise white tiled floor.

    In the master bedroom, pendant fixtures on both sides of the bed leave the side tables clutter-free and add an elegant designer touch. A second bedroom is just as cozy, and the third works well as an office.

    The living room connects to an enclosed sunroom with exposed brick wall. A built-in bookshelf was perhaps once an exterior window, but now this room provides much-needed extra living space.

    The backyard is equipped with a covered patio, and ceiling fans overhead keep it usable even in the warmer months. The pristine landscaping from the front continues in the back, with enough green space for children and pets to play.

    This Hollywood Heights Tudor is listed for $524,000.

    New Port Aransas luxury beach cottages come with their own water park

    If thoughts of spring break have North Texans yearning for a beach vacation, an upcoming Port Aransas development may provide some inspiration — or at least a few daydreams. Spoonbill Bay is currently under construction on Mustang Island, promising ocean views and a slew of fun amenities.

    Future residents of the community, located bayside of State Highway 361, are in for some splashy fun. State regulatory records reveal that Spoonbill Bay will soon begin work on a water park that will have multiple pools, a lazy river, a splash pad, an amusement park-style slide tower, sunning decks, and cabanas.

    “This is what Phase One will be like when we open in May 2026,” said Alex Harris, owner and CEO of Brite Star Construction, in a Facebook post. “Children’s water slides and water playground, large family pool with a swim-up bar, second-floor pavilion for relaxing and parties, tiki bar with lots of TVs, and a full assortment of food at the entry building.”

    Surrounding the aquatic park will be several white cottages built in Lowcountry style with raised foundations, porches, and large windows to take in the Coastal sun. The two- to three-bed homes come in a variety of floor plans with their own private lap pools.

    Spoonbill Bay closes a gap in Port Aransas’ luxury vacation home market. Although the city is speckled with several ultra-high-end properties, the development provides a less expensive gateway to island living. The 916 to 1,284 square feet cottages start at $500,000, a hair below the area’s almost $600,000 median home price, according to Zillow.

    Some of the homes have already been completed, and the full construction is expected to wrap up in 2026. Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filings say the water park will be finished by late June, although timelines are always subject to change.
