What is the best area(s) of Dallas to live inside the city, not a suburb for a working professional architect?|162464

I am considering taking a job in either Dallas or Austin. I am married and have no children. I would like to have the opportunity to buy a home in the city and renovate it. We also have our own business and would like to relocate that to the city as well. We are into the arts and love to eat out... We don_t like the burbs. and are currently living in downtown philadelphia with our dashound Collucci.

Kessler Park and the Winnetka Heights Historic District in the Oak Cliff neighborhood of Dallas have very nice older homes. I_m sure you could find a beautiful older home you could renovate.

You have to be careful where you buy in Oak Cliff because the area is surrounded by high crime areas.

You_re very welcome. Good luck!

it sounds like you would want to move to a place that brings _modern and contemporary Living_ together. I think _uptown Dallas Texas_ is where you should reside.

I don_t know about your budget, but you can find beautiful and luxurious condos, lofts and homes. You will be living walking distance to the best restaurants, arts district, and experience a vibrant night life.

I can send you a listing of properties with property photos, floor plans, and other information you may request. My website is
http://uptowndallasapartments.net,
there you can also find my phone number if you have further questions.

If you can afford it, try some of the homes on Swiss Avenue in Dallas.

Most of the homes are designated historical sites. And they are old. So you will have to rennovate, but because of the historical designation there are certain things you can and can_t do.

A nice project, especially for an architect.

The nicest areas in the city of Dallas are University Park and Highland Park. I think you_d like living in Uptown area too, but I believe it_s mostly condos.

The Lakewood area of east Dallas is an area worth checking out as well.
