Downing Thomas Designed Residence

3832 Turtle Creek Drive, Dallas, Texas

Architect Bruce Bernbaum was the renovation architect of 3832 Turtle Creek Drive. Jerry Sporleader was the original owner of the home designed by Downing Thomas and Bill Booziotis. The Carrs have expanded the house using Michael Lee and Emily Summers. The house is at the base of a steep hill overlooking Turtle Creek and the high-rises in the distance. The Carrs state that they enjoy the simple lines, and true house feeling, and the contemporary setting in the middle of an urban area. On Turtle Creek Drive a person finds garages turned into townhouses, historic estates, modern houses, new houses, and yet there is nothing visually incongruous about the different approaches to this private drive.
