Inside Munger Place
Munger Place sits in East Dallas between North Fitzhugh Avenue, Gaston Avenue, Henderson Avenue and Columbia Avenue, just across Gaston from the Swiss Avenue Historic District. Cotton gin manufacturer Robert S. Munger established it in 1905 on 300 acres with early deed restrictions that required two-story homes facing the main street, and today's historic district covers 85 acres with more than 250 households. Its Classical Revival, Prairie School and bungalow homes make it a fit for buyers who want a restored early 1900s house close to downtown, Deep Ellum and Lower Greenville.
The lesson here is that a Dallas Landmark district changes the math on any project. Munger Place is on the National Register (1978) and is a city Landmark district, so exterior work such as windows, porches, siding and additions typically goes through preservation review. For buyers, I scope restoration costs and timelines before you offer, and for sellers, documented approvals and quality restoration work help buyers trust the price.

Munger Place is in Dallas County and Dallas ISD, which with the city, Parkland Hospital and Dallas College came to about 2.23% for tax year 2025 before exemptions. Restored and unrestored homes can appraise very differently on the same block, so I check the appraisal record for each address.
