About This Property

Adorable cottage in highly desirable Oak Forest! This property is a perfect investment property and has been mostly recently used as a rental home. The home features cute curb appeal with mature trees, three nice sized bedrooms, a remodeled bath with tub/shower combo, hardwood floors throughout, massive galley kitchen with tons of counter/cabinet space. Lovely back yard with detached covered patio area. Looking to add square footage? This home would be a great candidate for adding a primary suite and converting to a 4 bed/2 bath home. So much potential, so many possibilities. Close proximity to all the area attractions the Oak Forest / Garden Oaks area has to offer, including restaurants, bars, retail, parks and the White Oak Bayou running / biking trails.
