The Property
A hundred-year-old cottage with nothing left undone.
"744 square feet, renovated to the last inch, on a lot you can keep with a Saturday morning."
1614 Hubert Street is a detached one-bedroom cottage built in 1920, in the Ross Avenue Heights section of East Dallas, two blocks off Ross Avenue and a short turn from Greenville Avenue.
It has been fully renovated. Herringbone-patterned floors, Craftsman-style trim and warm wood doors carry the age of the house; the kitchen and the bath are new work. Living and kitchen are open to one another, and built-in cabinetry runs through the house — storage designed in rather than furniture added later.
The kitchen makes every inch count: abundant cabinetry, a large island, stainless steel appliances, an apron-front sink and brass hardware. The bath takes 8 by 15 feet and spends it well — a glass-enclosed walk-in shower with a built-in bench, crisp subway tile, graphic black-and-white tilework, black fixtures and brass accents. The bedroom measures 15 by 15, with two closets and a custom closet system.
What it does not come with is a maintenance list or a set of association rules. There is no HOA. The lot is 2,300 square feet — 46 feet across, 50 feet deep — with off-street parking on a concrete driveway and pad, and solar panels that were installed in 2023. The home is offered fully furnished, which makes it as straightforward a second home or investment purchase as it is a first one.

Cost of ownership
What it costs to own this home.
Current Property Tax
$6,325 / year
About $527 a month, with no exemptions on record. Important: this is assessed on a taxable value of $284,050 — roughly 59% of the asking price.
Estimated After Sale
$10,800 / year
Roughly $900 a month if the home is reassessed near $485,000 — about $373 a month more than today. Texas reappraises toward market value, so budget on this figure rather than the current one. It is an estimate, not a quote.
HOA
None
No association, no monthly assessment, no architectural committee. No Public Improvement District and no Municipal Utility District apply.
Estimate — not a quote
Property tax estimator
- Estimated annual tax

- Estimated per month

Calculated at a combined rate of 2.22671% per $100 of value — the City of Dallas (0.6988), Dallas ISD (0.993835), Dallas County (0.2155), Dallas College (0.106575) and Parkland Hospital (0.212) rates shown on the appraisal district's own estimate for this parcel. This is an estimate with no exemptions applied and is not a guarantee of any future tax bill. Assessed values are reviewed annually and a buyer's assessment may differ from the current one. A buyer who occupies the home as a principal residence may be eligible for a Texas homestead exemption, which would lower the taxable value; a second-home or rental buyer would not. Please verify all tax figures independently.
Worth asking for before you write an offer
Three items decide how this house pencils, and none of them should be assumed: the solar documentation — whether the 2023 system is owned, financed or leased, and what transfers at closing; the short-term rental picture — permitting and the city rules that apply at this address today; and the furniture inventory — exactly what conveys with a home offered fully furnished. Add a structural and foundation inspection, standard for a 1920 house on a pier-and-beam foundation. We will gather the paperwork for you. Request the due-diligence package.
The location
Ross Avenue Heights, East Dallas.
Hubert Street runs off Ross Avenue in East Dallas, about two blocks east of Greenville Avenue. The house is the second on the left.
That puts it inside the older, close-in grid of East Dallas — small lots, early-century houses, and the Greenville Avenue corridor within a short drive. Only the streets named in the property record are listed here; a fuller neighborhood guide, with anything measurable actually measured, is available on request.
