Built in 1906 at the end of East Dallas’ Victorian era, the Shiels House is a combination of Queen Anne Victorian, Prairie School, with a touch of Craftsman style influence. The two-and-a-half story frame home can be found in the Peak’s Addition Neighborhood. Thomas and Mary “Willie” Shiels were the first owners of the home. At the time, Mr. Shiels owned a large East Dallas mill, was the contractor on the original construction of his home, and was very instrumental in the development and shaping of East Dallas.

The home has a wrap-around porch with solid box wood columns featuring large decorative brackets associated with the Craftsman style. There is also a gable dormer, a roof with overhanging eaves, and a large chimney. In later years, a new door and large sidelights at the back entrance were added. Many of the home’s original interior features are still in tact including milled woodwork from Mr. Shiels’ milling factory, two parlors, and two original fireplaces to name a few. The home was sold in the mid-1940s and presumably, the second owner subdivided the lot and sold the rear portion. While they don’t exist today, a two-story house and servants’ quarters were supposedly built on the rear lot.

The Shiels House is in a neighborhood comprised of mostly 2-story frame houses built between the 1890s and 1920s. It is the oldest one on the block and is considered to have a high level of architectural and historic integrity. The home was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995, and was designated a Dallas Landmark in 2007.

It's a big conversation: The difference between "needs" and "wants" and how to pay for it. Those are tough choices when building your dream home. On this episode of the podcast, we're getting down to business about starting that home project.

Home design budget considerations as well as understanding the difference between your home design needs and things you want but don't really need.
