See a hidden University Park home lauded in the 1940s for its spacious front-yard patio – The Dallas Morning News

Dallasites bemoaning the wintry weather were facing are dreaming of warmer days spent outside on patios in the sun. This University Park home certainly fits that dream. The tree-lined property has ample outdoor living space and is hidden from view on a private, landscaped lot.

Step onto the property at 6231 St. Andrews Drive, and youll find a classic home among the greenery.

Listing agent Carmen DiPenti of Compass says it doesnt feel like living in a bustling city.

In the middle of Dallas, you have this peaceful, relaxing environment, he said.

The home has four bedrooms, five bathrooms and two half-bathrooms in its 4,784 square feet. The home was originally built in 1946, but the current owners have made recent updates like renovating the kitchen and all of the bathrooms.

The home made the pages of The Dallas Morning News in the summer of 1949 for its large outdoor patio, which sits on the front side of the home and offers plenty of lounging and dining space. Numerous windows and French doors throughout the home make the most of the surrounding green space.
