A Reno-Ready Mid-Century Marvel in Houston for $1.75M

By Grace Cassidy A partially renovated mid-century modern home in Houston’s Lakeview neighborhood could be yours for $1.75 million. With the kitchen and bathroom recently brought up to date, homeowners can renovate the remainder to create the mid-century modern home of their dreams. Located at 11947 S Durrette Drive and listed by Douglas Elliman’s Konrad Molski, the 1960 rambler spans over 3,500 square feet in size with five bedrooms and three full bathrooms on nearly a half-acre of land. High ceilings, wood beams and floor-to-ceiling brick details surrounding the fireplace define the living room, while an outdoor covered patio—complete with overhead fans and a convenient television—overlooks a pool perfect for hot Texas summers. The recently renovated kitchen includes modern cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and a generous island with bar-style seating for casual meals. Residents will enjoy a private master suite with a remodeled bathroom and walk-in closet. Homeowners are less than 10 miles from Memorial Park and less than 15 miles from downtown Houston.
