A rare Montrose find with a tree-lined setting, private driveway, no HOA and a deep backyard features not easily found inside the Loop. Tall ceilings, stained beams, arched details and abundant natural light give the open main living level warmth and character. The kitchen offers extensive counter space, gas cooking and a walk-in pantry, with easy access to an expansive deck for grilling, dining and entertaining. Downstairs, a covered patio opens to the backyard with plenty of room to play, garden or simply enjoy being outside. Upstairs, well-proportioned bedrooms feel bright and comfortable, with excellent closet space throughout. The primary suite features two closets, dual sinks, a walk-in shower and jetted tub, while the secondary bedrooms easily accommodate guests, family or a home office. Roof and stucco improvements completed in 2024. Minutes from Buffalo Bayou Park, Whole Foods and favorite Montrose restaurants and destinations.
