Beautiful mid century cottage renovation/addition taken down to the studs. New electrical and plumbing. Two first floor master suites. Thermador appliances. Massive backyard. Lighting by Chris Loves Julia. The square footage listed 4590 is from the architect’s plans. HCAD has a higher square footage of 5826 for the home. We believe the architect’s number is more accurate, but please verify all dimensions independently. Broker is property owner. VERY MOTIVATED TO SELL!
