A Mid-Century Modern Treehouse where whimsy and sophistication intertwine! The artistic vision of beloved architect David Braden, FAIA combined with masterful engineering creates a home that harmonizes with nature in a way that will nourish the soul. Carved into the lush hillside, and elevated high above street level the house is literally built into the trees! Floor to ceiling glass and clerestory windows allow nature to be the backdrop for nearly every room. The main level connects the kitchen, dining room, 3 living areas and expansive outdoor decks so that the majority of living area is all on one level. There is a partial basement that houses a media room, kitchenette and a large storage room. Through the trees, dazzling views of the Dallas skyline add to the magical setting. Recently updated and pre-inspected, this jewel is move-in ready. See VIRTUAL TOUR, floor-plan and video.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.

Listing Agents and Buyer’s Agents represent the two sides of a real estate transaction. As a Seller of a home, your Listing Agent represents your interests and will advise, consult and follow your instructions to sell your property at the best possible price and terms.
If you’re a Buyer, a Buyer’s Agent advises you throughout the transaction, helping you get the best deal and advocating for you. The Buyer’s Agent commission is also paid by the Seller, so the Buyer never sees a bill for their service.
Many first time Buyers believe they can work without a Buyer’s Agent and instead use the same agent as the Seller. When both Buyer and Seller use the same agent, known as “dual agency”, it can sometimes save on fees, but it also puts the agent in a conflict of interest, not fully representing either party.
