Property Description

Welcome to a fully upgraded 3-bedroom (can up to 4 bedroom), 2.5-bath single-story home on a massive 0.45-acre (19,802 sq ft) lot in Houston! A classic charm with modern luxury. Step inside to a bright, open-concept layout defined by elegant arced entryways. Enjoy fresh luxury vinyl plank flooring, recessed lighting, and crisp neutral paint throughout—with no fireplace to interrupt the spacious flow. The chef-inspired kitchen is a showstopper, featuring modern blue-grey and white shaker cabinetry, gleaming quartz countertops, and brand-new stainless steel appliances. The bathrooms have been completely overhauled into spa-like retreats with custom tile work and vanities. Outside, the property boasts a stunning entry porch with a natural wood-plank ceiling, mature oak trees, and an expansive attached carport offering covered parking for up to 4 vehicles. Complete with updated central HVAC.
