Home Details for 1937 Marydale Drive

Introducing 1937 Marydale Drive—an authentic Eclectic French Farmhouse designed by acclaimed architect Charles Dilbeck, whose romantic style helped shape the architectural identity of Dallas and beyond. This Dilbeck masterpiece is located in prestigious Stevens Park Estates Conservation District, just minutes from Downtown Dallas. Every Dilbeck tells it’s own story and 1937 Marydale’s story unfolds down a meandering stone pathway that leads you through the home’s lush gardens to the whimsical French Norman inspired chamber doors that open to a what feels like a secret passageway. Beyond the Dutch door entryway you are invited to exchange the coziness of the vestibule for the home’s spacious formals. Inside, Dilbeck’s signature details abound: HAND-HEWN TIMBER BEAMS, a dining room crowned with a stunning PECKY-CYPRESS PANELED CEILING, and most notably, an EXPANSIVE BRICK FIREPLACE that anchors the living area with timeless warmth and features a hand-carved cowboy themed mantle, multiple stepped “shelves” and wrought iron accoutrements. While steeped in character, the home has seen important modern updates including a whole house electrical and HVAC system upgrade. The home has mostly preserved its historic integrity with the exception of a thoughtfully integrated rear kitchen addition. This enchanting home sits nestled among lush gardens and mature trees providing a storybook setting just blocks from Stevens Park Golf Course and only minutes to Bishop Arts and the new Sprouts Market. Rarely does a home come along that offers an architectural pedigree, unmatched charm, and a location that connects you to both the heart of the city and vibrant neighborhood life. This is more than a home—it’s a legacy and a work of art that celebrates one of Dallas’ most beloved architects.
