Priced at lot value — incredible opportunity in Southampton Place! This charming traditional 3 bedroom/2 bath home offers an ideal "entry level" entry point into one of Houston's most desirable neighborhoods. The Bissonnet location comes with a fully gated front yard, maximizing usable space on the 6,600 sq. ft. lot (per HCAD), plus back alley access for easy parking. With the home essentially priced for the land, this is a rare chance to live in the current home, build later, or enjoy a great rental opportunity now while you plan new construction — several new builds in the area. Unbeatable location just steps from Rice Village and Rice University, across the street from Picnic, and minutes to Houston's best museums and dining. Southampton Place lot value pricing like this doesn't come along often — don't miss it!
