"One of Dallas' most prestigious and historic addresses"

The Swiss Avenue area of East Dallas is a historic residential street that features around 200 restored mansions in several architectural styles. Here you'll find Spanish, Mediterranean, Neoclassical, Tudor, Georgian, and Italian Renaissance, and many more. It's listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in all of Dallas.

Expect to see plenty of two-story homes here and the starting point for prices to move to this area are $675,000+ up to and over several million dollars. Swiss Avenue residents are served by the Dallas Independent School District, and there are several excellent private schools close to the area as well. It's only minutes away to the Lower Greenville Avenue entertainment district for fine dining and nightlife that last until 2 AM every night. Downtown Dallas is only minutes away so it's ideal for commuters to the area. There are several neighborhood gems in the form of eateries you must experience when in the area. Jake's Hamburgers has been serving up delicious greasy hamburgers and cheeseburgers for over 30 years and are not to be missed.

Be part of one of the most beautiful and historic areas of Dallas with a move to Swiss Avenue.
