Our 20-year Impulse buy
Who buys a home on impulse? We did! In 1998, we had decided we wanted to move to Oak Cliff, but didn’t know much about it yet. We wanted to rent for a year to learn more about the area before buying our home. We previewed a potential rental on Oak Cliff Blvd. We weren’t crazy about the rental, but instantly felt at home with the vibe that emanates throughout Oak Cliff. With nothing better to do on a Saturday afternoon in November, we decided to take up the owner’s offer to meet her husband who also did all of the maintenance on the rental. He was prepping this house to sell. When we stepped onto the property, the fall trees grabbed our attention. We immediately fell in love with the big front windows, hardwood floors and charming 1940s details. We told the owners to stop all their prep work so we could take over and make it our own. 20 years later, it’s time to pass it to a new owner to love as much as we have.
