Welcome to this beautifully maintained home offering a perfect blend of vintage charm and modern convenience. Situated in a prime location just minutes from 290, 610, Downtown, and the Galleria, this home has never flooded. The primary bathroom has been recently remodeled, adding a fresh and modern touch. A flex space at the back of the home makes a perfect sunroom, reading nook, or play area. Step outside to a low-maintenance backyard, finished with astroturf-ideal for pets! The huge covered patio provides ample shade for outdoor gatherings. The almost 200 sq. ft. she shed is perfect for working from home, an art studio, or even a photography space. The garage is a dream—finished with epoxy floors, an insulated garage door, and a mini-split system for year-round climate control. This home is also equipped with an updated electrical panel, a transfer switch for backup power, and a whole-house surge protector, ensuring peace of mind during any season.
