"One sparkling gem of a neighborhood close to all Dallas's best amenities"

One of the nicer East Dallas neighborhoods for families and professionals, the Wilshire Heights neighborhood has some beautiful family homes on spacious lots with manicured lawns. Some of the better homes on the M Streets section date from the 1930's and can sell for up to $500,000. This neighborhood is also close to some of the very best amenities that Dallas has to offer.

Wilshire Heights is served by the Dallas Independent School District, which boasts some of the best magnet schools in the nation and several private schools are close by. There are also plenty of great attractions for adults in this area. Pay a visit to Campisi's and Campisi's Egyptian Restaurant on East Mockingbird Lane not just because of the great food, do it because you may get to see a former Playboy Playmate of the Month behind the bar, the lovely Amber Campisi. White Rock Lake and the Dallas Arboretum are also just a short drive away to the east, and Downtown Dallas is only a few minutes away by car or by Dallas Area Rapid Transit bus or train.

The Wilshire Heights neighborhood of East Dallas is a great choice to call home for a number of very good reasons.
Pros
  • close to Downtown Dallas
  • close to fine dining and shopping
Cons
  • heavy traffic area
Recommended for
  • Professionals
