Charming and historic townhouse

Welcome to this charming and historic townhouse nestled in the heart of Houston. With its prime location and proximity to nature, this property offers a unique retreat for those seeking both convenience and tranquility. This is not a shared property... .

As you enter this two-story townhouse, you'll immediately feel at home. The first floor features a spacious living area with a comfortable couch, a thrifted coffee table that adds character, and a 55" Roku smart TV connected to WiFi for your entertainment needs. The kitchen has a range, stove top, burner, a large double-door refrigerator with water and ice dispenser, a dishwasher, a coffee maker, and a microwave. The kitchen also boasts a big pantry with a vintage barn door, offering ample storage space for your culinary needs. The dining area, which comfortably seats four people (with an additional chair available in the storage closet), overlooks the open-plan living space.

The second bedroom offers a twin-size bed, a ceiling fan with a light, a big vintage desk with a chair and lamp, and windows with blackout curtains. The second bathroom includes a walk-in shower and a single big vanity with cabinets and a mirror. A half bath downstairs, below the staircase, features a sink, a commode, and a vacuum that can be charged for your convenience.

Step outside onto the back patio and relax under the shade of a 100-year-old oak tree. The patio has chairs, a table, and an umbrella, creating a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or dine al fresco. The property also offers a public courtyard with additional seating to unwind and soak in the peaceful surroundings. If you're a nature enthusiast, this area is a haven for birdwatching.
A beautiful private community pool is only a few steps away.

This townhouse also offers extra perks. The community center, playground, tennis court, and basketball court are just a short walk away, providing plenty of recreation opportunities.

This fully furnished townhouse welcomes dogs, so you can bring along your furry friends. The property is equipped with doggy doors to ensure their comfort.

This home is open to anyone who appreciates each piece of furniture's history and sentimental value. If you enjoy staying in unique places and care for the space you inhabit, this townhouse is the perfect fit for you.

Lastly, being close to NRG Stadium, this townhouse offers a prime location for exploring the best that Houston has to offer. Downtown Houston is just a 20-minute drive away, and the medical corridor on Main Street can be reached in only 17 minutes. Within the neighborhood, you'll find yourself surrounded by parks, including the Willow Waterhole Greenway, a protected park with abundant wildlife just 1.2 miles away. The area's peacefulness is further enhanced by its location, as traffic is minimal, creating a serene and quiet atmosphere.

Because I live overseas, you get to enjoy the whole space with the exception of my private bedroom for much less than a hotel room.

Take advantage of the opportunity to call this unique and historic townhouse your home. Contact me today to schedule a viewing and experience the charm and tranquility for yourself.
