Step inside to airy high ceilings and flowing open-concept living. The show-stopping kitchen features an oversized 6-seat island, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The primary suite is bathed in natural light, offering a large walk-in closet and ensuite with a double vanity and luxurious walk-in shower, alongside two generous guest rooms. The real game-changer?

Complete with an outdoor deck, updated HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and energy-efficient windows.
Northside Village, located between Downtown Houston and the Northside/Northline area, is a historic and industrial Houston neighborhood with rail-side streetscapes and a working-port edge. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Airline Drive corridor near Cavalcade Street, where taquerias, panaderías, auto shops, and small storefronts line the roadway in a steady daily rhythm. Longtime anchors such as the Original Ninfa’s on Navigation, the Orange Show Center for Visionary Art, and the Houston Farmers Market help define the area’s cultural map. Housing ranges from early bungalows to newer infill, with wide lots and utility corridors shaping the blocks. Buffalo Bayou’s industrial bends and the nearby ship-channel landscape give the geography a gritty, big-sky feel. METRORail and bike routes tie the neighborhood to downtown venues and warehouse-district nightlife.
