Unusual houses in Dallas

Looking for unique and unusual houses in Dallas. These gotta be houses/homes for families and not buildings.





Really hope someone can help me with a website or some information about a house/home like that.





Thank you!



Unusual houses in Dallas


for sale or to tour



Unusual houses in Dallas


Unique and unusual as in not a tract home, or have some feature such as a bell tower or the 1960 World%26#39;s Fair model home (still looks very modern) on Gaston?





www.significanthomes.com has a lot of Dallas homes pictured--Doug went through various downtown neighborhoods and took photos of all the houses--very cool





www.mungerplace.com has a few examples of the Prairie style homes in Munger Place





www.sahd.org is home base for Swiss Ave




Chrystin - Where is the home on Gaston? Is it the white on white brick/cement home on a corner in Lakewood with pink balcony furniture?




I apologize for not making myself more clear in my first post here.





I am looking for weird, strange type of houses/homes. That are build in a funny way or has something special about them. And not special in expensive or really nice, but in weird and strange.





I am doing this research for a tv-show, and really need some help.





So if anyone have anything at all, thank you very much!!!




There is a house that is very strange and artsy in the area where Highland Park meets Uptown. I believe it is at the corner of Turtle Creek and Prescott, which is 1 block north of Fitzhugh. If not, it is somewhere in that area where Oaklawn and Turtle Creek merge into Preston.



It is an area that is full of Majestic homes, and this one really sticks out. If I am in that area this week, I will take a picture and post it.




There are two houses on Buckner that are really weird to me. One is built into a hill and it looks like you%26#39;re going to a house from the Wind in the Willows. One is just huge and sprawling and was pink and white stucco as I%26#39;m remembering with lots of curlicues--it%26#39;s been quite a while since I saw it, it%26#39;s on a corner heading down Buckner towards I-30 on the left somewhere.




Pepper, I haven%26#39;t looked at it in a while, but it sounds like the house you%26#39;re describing. Don%26#39;t know about pink furniture. In my mind%26#39;s eye I seem to remember all white with some bottle glass type design on one of the walls. I%26#39;ll try and get by it tomorrow so I can tell you exactly.




I think that%26#39;s it Chrystin.



The house in the hill (Buckner @ VInewood near Ferguson) was for sale last year or so. Don%26#39;t know if it sold or not. We call it the Teletubbie house. Across Buckner from that house is an interesting place (the pink place) that%26#39;s currently the Sciencetologists (sp?) Dallas headquarters.



In Little Forest Hills there are some interesting places including some cement homes; one that was featured in a cement home magazine.



In Italy, there are Monolithic domes. It%26#39;s about 30 minutes (south) from Dallas.




Is this house you guys talk about now a normal home for a family? Just it looks strange right? Cause if so, that%26#39;s exactly what I am looking for :)





But does anyone know about any website or anything that would have pictures or information about this house or any other unusual houses?





Doesn%26#39;t have to be in Dallas, but that is one of the cities we are looking for material.





Thanks for all the help!!




There%26#39;s a family in the Teletubbie house - or a couple anyway; not sure. I live near them. The house on Gaston looks like a Miami Beach home to me...so maybe not too unusual, but different for Dallas.
