This charming traditional 3 bedroom/2 bath home is an ideal "entry level" home into desirable Southampton Place. The benefit of the Bissonnet location is that the front yard is fully gated, which allows for more useage of the total lot area. The back alley provides ease in access to the property and additional parking space. Whereas the current home is certainly "liveable", the 6,600 sq. ft. lot (per HCAD) would make a great building site. The existing home could also be a nice rental property while drafting architectural plans and obtaining bids for new construction. There is other new construction in the area. Wonderful location near area restaurants (across the street from Picnic!), museums, the Rice Village, and Rice University. Great opportunity to live in now and build later!
