What’s the best thing to buy when a once-in-a-lifetime sporting event comes to town? This adorable Vickery Place Craftsman with a guest house! Why? Because you might just make back a few mortgage payments by renting it to visitors, vendors, or broadcasters.
Hotels, short-term rentals, restaurants, and retail establishments are all poised to make some serious coin in the coming months because Dallas is hosting several popular matches for the FIFA World Cup 2026™.
With semi-final tickets soaring to almost $3,000, don’t think everyone wants to stay in Arlington. No, indeed. The broadcast center will be in downtown Dallas, and the FIFA Fan Festival™ will be based at Fair Park (the volunteer center is already open). Those who can’t afford the steep ticket price will still be coming to town to enjoy the Fan Festival, and this Vickery Place Craftsman is only a 12-minute drive to Fair Park! Sold yet? You should be.
Not only is this a smart buy, but it’s also in one of the most charming neighborhoods in Dallas. Platted in 1911 and home to one of the largest collections of early 20th-century residences in Dallas, Vickery Place became a conservation district in 2006. This means a giant modern box home will never sprout up beside your Craftsman.
Another benefit of this classic 1,454-square-foot Vickery Place Craftsman is the fact that it has been completely updated. We all know how hard it is to find contractors today. You can rest easy knowing this home is absolutely move-in-ready. There are three bedrooms and one-and-a-half bathrooms in the main house. The 320-square-foot guest quarters has a full bathroom and a private entrance.
Vickery Place is one of the best locations in Dallas. Greenville Avenue’s restaurants and shops are within walking distance. The Vickery Place Neighborhood Association will keep you up to date on what’s happening in and around the neighborhood and make you and your visiting soccer fans feel right at home…
