Early dismissal at Braeburn Elementary; goodbye to a Tartan trio; and other residential removals:
Today’s Sponsor of the Day is the recently renovated home at 8647 Dover St. in Glenbrook Valley. Thanks for supporting Swamplot!
The original Roman brick wraps the front, back, and sides of this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home from 1956 (yes, you read that right). It sits on an 8,250-sq.-ft. lot on the corner of Dover and Wilmerdean in Glenbrook Valley — an oasis of ’50s residential swank just one exit outside The Loop.
Inside this rambler, almost everything’s been redone: Walls have been removed to allow unimpeded views of both the front and rear yards from the main living spaces. The all-new kitchen has stainless-steel appliances and microwave, a marble subway-tile backsplash, and modern fixtures and lighting. A corner fireplace in the adjacent family area abuts a sliding glass door to the new rear deck, in a courtyard-ish portion of the back yard.
French doors lead to the deck from the Master Bedroom; on a separate wing of the U-shaped floor plan, a fourth bedroom with ensuite bath gathers light from windows on 3 sides. A 2-car attached garage faces Wilmerdean.
Take a look at the revamped interior of this home on the property website. If you like what you see, be sure to contact the listing agent, Robert Searcy of Robert Searcy Properties, for more information or an in-person tour.
