About This Home

As of May 2025

Nestled in a prime location just minutes from downtown, this versatile property offers both residential and commercial potential. The charming brick exterior opens to a thoughtfully updated interior featuring a spacious living area with a mock fireplace, a den for added flexibility, and a kitchen enhanced with granite countertops, a stylish backsplash, and engineered wood flooring. Recent updates, including a new roof, plumbing, windows, interior paint, and AC, ensure modern comfort while preserving character. A permitted, plumbed engineered slab beside the home is ready for a two-story addition—perfect for a garage, guest suite, or future investment opportunity. Alternatively, it could transform into an inviting outdoor retreat for entertaining or relaxation. Situated near the Medical Center, sports venues, museums, and Houston’s top dining spots, this property presents a rare opportunity to customize and capitalize on a sought-after location.
