What is 1611 Mustang Ct in Cedar Hill, TX?
1611 Mustang Ct is a 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom estate in Cedar Hill's Lake Ridge community, offering 3,915 sq ft on a full one-acre cul-de-sac lot at $697,000 — a rare combination of space, upgrades, and outdoor living in the southern DFW Metroplex.
______________________________________________________________________________________________
Here's a number that doesn't lie: the median lot size for homes in the DFW suburbs is around a quarter acre. Most buyers accept that as normal. A lot of agents won't even mention it.
But when you're walking the backyard at 1611 Mustang Ct in Cedar Hill, you're standing on a full acre — in a cul-de-sac, with a cedar gazebo, a covered patio, an upper balcony, and mature landscaping on all sides. That's not just "a bigger yard." That's a different lifestyle entirely.
This home is listed by Lauren Kerschen, REALTOR® and Founder of DFW's Finest Real Estate Group at ARC Realty DFW, and it's one of the most feature-dense properties on the market in Lake Ridge right now. Let's break down exactly what you're getting.
One Full Acre in a Cul-De-Sac: What That Actually Means
Lake Ridge is already known for oversized lots — it's one of the reasons buyers specifically seek out this neighborhood in Cedar Hill, TX 75104. But a full acre on a cul-de-sac puts this property in its own category.
The cul-de-sac position means minimal through traffic, more privacy, and a larger pie-shaped lot footprint. Add to that:
• Cedar gazebo (under a year old)
• Oversized covered back patio
• Upper-level covered balcony with open yard views
• Raised garden beds
• Extended sprinkler system
• Mature landscaping front and back
Buyers who've been touring 2,500 sq ft homes on postage-stamp lots across Arlington and Mansfield often need a minute when they get to a property like this. The outdoor living here isn't an afterthought — it's a full system.
Inside the Home: Where Every Detail Was Done Right
The property is a two-story brick and stone home built in 2005, and the condition reflects intentional upkeep, not a quick flip. Here's what that looks like room by room.
The Entry
You walk into a two-story rotunda with a curved staircase and wrought iron balusters. It's the kind of entry that tells you the rest of the home is going to deliver. And it does.
The Primary Suite (First Floor)
Three bedrooms are on the first floor, including a primary suite that's genuinely designed for rest and function. Features include:
• STONE FIREPLACE in the bedroom
• Private patio door
• Tray ceiling
• Dual oak vanities and a built-in makeup vanity
• Walk-in shower and garden tub
• Walk-in closet with full-perimeter built-in shelving
That's not a primary suite — that's a retreat.
The Kitchen
Granite countertops, travertine tile backsplash, a center island, Whirlpool oven, built-in microwave (replaced 2022), and a stainless dishwasher. What makes it stand out is the HUGE WALK-IN PANTRY off the kitchen and an oversized utility room that doubles as a butler's pantry — upper cabinetry, open shelving, and extra prep space. For anyone who actually cooks (or hosts), this setup is rare.
Upstairs
Two additional bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a spacious second living area opens directly to the covered rear balcony. It's a natural flex space — playroom, media room, or a dedicated work-from-home setup with a view.
The Upgrades That Matter (And When They Were Done)
In a market where buyers are scrutinizing every home for deferred maintenance, this property gives you clear answers:
• Roof replaced 4 years ago
• Downstairs water heater replaced 2022
• Built-in microwave replaced 2022
• All toilets replaced 2020
• Cedar gazebo under a year old
• Fresh interior paint throughout
• Hardwood floors throughout the ENTIRE home
• Three-car garage with electric gate and extended driveway
Hardwood floors throughout — not just the main areas, not just the entry. The entire home. That detail alone separates this property from nearly everything else in the 75104 zip code at this price point.
Why Buyers Choose Lake Ridge in Cedar Hill, TX
Lake Ridge isn't just a subdivision — it's one of the most recognized neighborhoods in the southern DFW Metroplex for a reason. The community is built around oversized lots, mature trees, and access to Joe Pool Lake. Residents get proximity to nature, open space, and the quiet that's genuinely hard to find this close to the DFW corridor.
Cedar Hill sits just south of Grand Prairie and west of Duncanville, giving you quick access to I-20, Loop 12, and Highway 360 — which means Fort Worth, Arlington, and Dallas are all within a reasonable commute. For buyers who want room to breathe without sacrificing location, Lake Ridge consistently delivers.
If you want to understand the Cedar Hill market more broadly, Redfin's Cedar Hill market data is a useful starting point, and the Dallas County Appraisal District can give you historical tax and value context for properties in the Lake Ridge area.
Who Is This Home For?
If you've been searching in the southern DFW Metroplex and keep running into the same problem — either the home is right but the lot is tiny, or the lot is great but the home needs work — this property solves both problems at once.
It's a strong fit for:
• Growing families who need 5 bedrooms and two living areas without a cramped floor plan
• Buyers relocating to DFW who want space and privacy without going fully rural
• Move-up buyers who've outgrown their current home and want a long-term property
• Outdoor-living buyers who want actual acreage in a neighborhood setting
At $697,000, this is a legitimate estate-level property — not inflated, not overpriced, not listing-speak. One acre on a cul-de-sac in Lake Ridge with these finishes and updates doesn't come to market often.
FAQ
Is Lake Ridge a good neighborhood in Cedar Hill, TX?
Lake Ridge is one of the most sought-after communities in Cedar Hill and the broader southern DFW Metroplex. The neighborhood is known for its oversized lots, mature landscaping, access to Joe Pool Lake, and proximity to major highways including I-20 and Highway 360. Properties in Lake Ridge tend to hold value well due to the lot sizes and established community feel.
What is the price per square foot for homes in Cedar Hill, TX 75104?
Price per square foot varies significantly in 75104 based on lot size, condition, and finishes. Homes in Lake Ridge with larger lots and updated interiors typically command a premium over the zip code median. For current comparable sales, working with a local REALTOR who knows the neighborhood-level data is the most reliable approach.
Are there 5-bedroom homes with acreage for sale near Cedar Hill, TX?
Five-bedroom homes on full-acre or larger lots in Cedar Hill are relatively rare and tend to move quickly when priced correctly. Lake Ridge is one of the few communities in southern Dallas County where one-acre-plus lots exist within an established subdivision. Buyers searching in Midlothian, Mansfield, and Burleson will find similar lot sizes, but Cedar Hill's proximity to Joe Pool Lake and the DFW corridor gives it a distinct advantage.
