This mid- century modern in Southhampton Place is on a secluded lot surrounded by trees. The home sits inside a courtyard with plenty of landscaping and a pool. The actual home is not visible from the street, only the brick wall surrounding it....
Currently the property has been ripped to the studs, no pipes or electrical. The potential can be seen with wall to wall windows and the open concept living space. Within minutes of 59 the Southwest freeway and Rice University or shopping and dining in Rice Village.
