About 3100 Purdue Avenue
A rare double-lot opportunity in one of the nation’s most coveted neighborhoods, this exceptional University Park property presents a compelling combination of architectural refinement and extraordinary land value. It pairs a beautifully renovated residence at 3100 Purdue with the adjoining parcel at 3104 Purdue—two 70' x 144' lots totaling an impressive 140 feet of frontage—fenced and landscaped to create a single, expansive estate, further enhanced by its position on the quiet corner of Durham Drive, offering the additional benefit of privacy from neighboring homes on both sides. The separate parcel at 3104 Purdue introduces a level of optionality seldom found in the Park Cities. Currently enjoyed as a sports-field-sized lawn, the site readily accommodates a future guest residence, resort-style pool, sport court or walking garden. Or it may simply be preserved to maintain the remarkable sense of privacy and open space. Behind a gracious façade, the home itself reveals a refined transitional renovation by Kerry Ketner, where timeless architecture meets modernized interiors. With a dedicated office and 5 generous bedrooms with en-suite baths, it offers comfort and seclusion for family and guests. A series of elegant living spaces and a formal dining room flow effortlessly into an open kitchen and breakfast area designed for daily living as much as gracious entertaining. Expansive windows frame the verdant grounds and draw natural light throughout the interiors, while the home’s orientation toward the adjacent parcel creates a seamless visual and spatial dialogue between indoor living and the extraordinary grounds beyond. Situated within the prestigious Highland Park Independent School District and zoned to Boone Elementary School, the property offers exceptional lifestyle appeal and enduring long-term value. Just moments away, boutiques and restaurants of Snider Plaza and Caruth Park provide the walkable charm and community character that define the Park Cities.
