1130 S Montreal Avenue Not every home tells a story. This one has spent nearly a century collecting them. Nestled beneath the canopy of mature trees in Hampton Hills, this thoughtfully updated Craftsman blends the character that draws people to North Oak Cliff with the modern improvements that make everyday living effortless. Original architectural charm meets fresh updates throughout, including new flooring installed throughtout in 2025, updated lighting, refreshed finishes, and a new roof completed in March 2025. Additional improvements include a 2023 water heater, repaired HVAC components in 2025, foundation repairs in 2025 with a transferable warranty, and a sprinkler system installed in 2019. Inside, the home feels open, comfortable, and surprisingly functional for its age. The living spaces flow naturally into the kitchen, while generous closets in all 3 bedrooms offer storage that's uncommon in many historic homes. Large windows fill the rooms with natural light, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Step outside and you'll discover one of the home's most remarkable features. Over the years, the current owners transformed what was once an ordinary backyard into a lush garden retreat complete with mature shade trees, Japanese maples, and oakleaf hydrangeas. Beyond the property, Hampton Hills offers something increasingly difficult to find, a genuine neighborhood. Active community events, tree-lined streets, and easy access to Bishop Arts, Stevens Park Golf Course, Downtown Dallas, and major highways make this location as practical as it is charming. Homes like this aren't defined by finishes alone. They're defined by how they make you feel the moment you arrive.
