I remember being dragged to the occasional open house when I was little. It took me a long time to figure out why my parents did that. We weren’t looking for a new home, so why bother? By the time I started looking for my first apartment, I completely understood the appeal of the open house. There’s no stress; you’re not trying to make any financial decisions, but you get to see what’s going out behind those illustrious doors, do a little compare and contrast, and leave with the satisfying knowledge of knowing exactly what that address looks like.

The Vendome

But no open house is worth the trip without a notorious address to coax you inside. So how about five notorious addresses? Turtle Creek Association, a non-profit organization whose primary focus is to enhance, preserve and protect the Turtle Creek Corridor, opens the doors to five high-rise residences for their 2013 Home Tour on April 21 from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. The self-guided tour offers attendees a rare opportunity to walk through and view an impressive assortment of notable Dallas addresses that include a balance of design styles and some of the most distinguished privately owned homes in the Dallas area.
