9745 Ash Creek Drive, Dallas, Texas 75228

What if your next home came with a little Dallas history—and a dedicated place for the bikes, kayaks and pickleball paddles? This light-filled 1955 midcentury ranch in Alger Park-Ash Creek sits approximately one mile as the crow flies from White Rock Lake and makes every one of its 1,632 square feet work beautifully. Big-ticket updates include a roof replaced in 2025, foundation work completed in 2025, and a 2019 HVAC system and water heater. The three-bedroom, two-bath open-concept plan is flexible and gathering-ready, with two living areas and two dining spaces. A large L-shaped front room can serve as living and dining, or create space for an office, library or play area. At the back, a second living area features a striking glass-block wall reportedly sourced from Dallas Alley and opens to a sunny 10-by-10 breakfast room. The refreshed kitchen sits at the center of the action with updated cabinetry, stainless appliances, gold hardware, a deep farmhouse-style sink, dedicated refrigerator water line and an oversized peninsula capped with two-inch quartz. It offers serious prep space, casual seating and a natural place to gather without missing the conversation. Three large solar tubes bring daylight into the kitchen, dining room and rear living area. A separate, full-size in-house laundry space is a rare and practical find in a home of this vintage. The primary bath adds a double-width designer-tiled shower with a rain showerhead and handheld wand. Storage is another standout, with an in-house sports-storage room, an attached storage room at the single-car carport and a separate 10-by-8 backyard building for tools and seasonal gear. Outside, a covered patio and oversized level concrete pad offer possibilities for dining, continued sports-court use, boat or RV parking. Mature trees, rolling streets and no HOA complete this easygoing East Dallas home.
