Santa Fe Meets Kessler Park


Bill & Russ weren’t in the market for a home when I called to tell them about a rare Spanish Colonial Revival about to hit the market in Kessler. The minute they saw it, they jumped at the chance to restore it.

What they purchased was a blank slate. What they created is a work of art.

Their design direction is simple, honest & respectful to the period. For the kitchen they chose an architecturally bold statement. There are no traditional cabinets, instead the uppers are open shelves braced by decorative wrought iron. The kitchen also features Jerusalem Gold Limestone countertops, a farmhouse sink & an exposed beam painted rusty orange.

Unique custom finishes are present in almost every corner of the home and Russ & Bill’s passion for straightforward, orderly presentations are on full display. From the moldings, to the millwork to the cast glass windows, every detail is perfection. And, nowhere is this more apparent than in the master bath where the wide open space features a freestanding, antique copper tub.

Bill & Russ are currently putting the finishing touches on another home in the popular North Oak Cliff neighborhood of Stevens Park Village. Check back often as I will feature their new product in the coming months.

All the best- Dori
