Sunset Terrace Home for Rent

Roughly 10 miles southwest of Downtown Houston, Sunset Terrace is a well-established neighborhood in Pasadena off Texas State Route 225. "It's a very community-oriented area," says Elida Guajardo, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker Universal, who has over 5 years of experience in the industry. "I own an event venue in Pasadena and have attended several city council meetings. Every board member grew up there, graduated from high school there, and then raised their own families there." Sunset Terrace is known for its quiet streets and close-knit community, consisting of modest single-family homes within walking distance of local parks and schools. West Harris Avenue divides the neighborhood into two sides, north and south, with residential streets surrounding the 6-acre urban Sunset Park on the south side. Nearby highways and backroads offer convenient commutes to Pasadena's oil refineries. "Most people moving to the area do so to be closer to work," Guajardo says. Surrounding industrial sites impact home values, with Sunset Terrace's sales prices hovering below Houston's average. Comparatively affordable homes are the neighborhood's largest draw, attracting first-time homebuyers
