About this home
2801 Albans Road — Rare West University Place corner homesite offered at lot value. Exceptional opportunity to secure a coveted corner at Albans and Wakeforest — 57.5' x 110' (6,325 SF per survey, 0.145 acre) in Monticello, a highly desirable enclave blocks from Rice University, Rice Village, Medical Center, and the Museum District. West U is an independent city with top-ranked schools, police, and municipal services. FEMA Zone X — outside the 100-year floodplain. Two street frontages provide outstanding design flexibility for a custom build — corner light, side-entry garage potential, and commanding presence on a beautiful tree-lined street. Offered for a limited window prior to construction on a new custom residence — this corner will not be available again. Property is improved with an existing house conveying strictly as-is, where-is, with no value assigned to improvements; value is in the land. Interior unavailable for viewing; do not disturb. Lot walks by appointment. No repairs.
