About This Home
Beautifully updated Craftsman brick bungalow in coveted Mandell Place in Montrose. Easy access to Texas Med Center, Rice University, and Downtown. Walking distance to the Menil campus, parks, great restaurants, and coffee shops. Home has been lovingly restored with ecofriendly materials, including low VOC interior paint. Plantation shutters throughout the downstairs of the home dress it up nicely. Floorplan was refreshed to expand the kitchen and add a large utility room. Upgrades to the kitchen include new soft-close cabinetry, Silestone countertops, a chef inspired Wolf range, a Kohler farmhouse sink, and the addition of a large breakfast island as the central feature in the space. Primary bedroom upstairs boasts new Pella energy efficient windows and a large wrap around walk-in closet with built-ins. Recent foundation and drainage work. Whole house Aquasana water filtration system installed. Wrought iron electric driveway gate leads to a 2-car garage, which is rare for the bungalow.
