Preston Hollow & North Dallas

Preston Hollow is the part of Dallas where lot size still decides the value of a house before anything else does. Wide frontages, mature trees and deep setbacks are the norm, and a meaningful share of the market is new custom construction replacing earlier houses on those lots.

Character

• Lot dimensions — particularly frontage — are the first thing to establish, because they govern what can be built and therefore what a house is worth.
• Streets vary considerably: a quiet interior block and a busy thoroughfare one street over can carry very different pricing.
• New construction here is a large share of available inventory, so a buyer is often comparing a finished new house against a renovation project rather than against other new houses.

Housing stock

• Large custom houses, frequently gated, on generous lots
• Mid-century houses that remain as renovation or replacement candidates
• Contemporary new builds with extensive glazing and integrated outdoor rooms
• A small number of original estate properties retained and updated
