This value-add boarding house presents a renovation opportunity with a functional layout that includes 17 rooms and 5 bathrooms. It is being offered with the space and configuration to support a tailored boarding-house vision, with room to apply renovation ideas to improve the property’s overall appeal and performance.

Located at 3528 Colonial Avenue in Dallas, the property is seconds off I-45. It also sits close to the Farmer’s Market and Deep Ellum, with the Forest Theatre corridor and its nearby redevelopment bringing new schools, retail, and restaurants into the surrounding area. The recently renovated Cesar Chavez Boulevard (previously 175) has expanded local access to Downtown, the Cedars, Deep Ellum, and Uptown Dallas.

With the area continuing to change, buyers looking to invest now may find this an attractive foundation for a refreshed operator-ready property.
