In 2010, we partnered with a local developer who had acquired an undeveloped triangular shaped tract of land in East Dallas. This property had a park-like setting: nestled under a canopy of mature trees, bordered by a church, a school, and was adjacent to a 1950’s neighborhood. We believed there was a market for unique, architect-designed, well-constructed, energy efficient homes, built at a price point that would make sense for a speculative project and a potential buyer. The intent was to provide 3-4 such homes as an alternative to investing in a new “tract” neighborhood. Each home would be of the quality and character that would complement the surrounding context of the adjacent established mid-century neighborhoods. The project is known as “The Enclave at Northcliff”,  or “Ten201” (an acronym of the project derived from the address). The designs provide universal appeal and function, providing inherent flexibility to work with a variety of potential buyers, from young families to single owners to empty nesters.
