About 406 W 55th 1/2 St
If you want a home that puts you in the middle of everything, you’re in the right place! This updated two-story in North Loop has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a layout that just makes sense. The kitchen is made for more than just cooking, it’s a gathering place with plenty of granite countertop space to spread out and a tile backsplash that adds just the right amount of character. At the back of the home, a sprawling living space waits, perfect for stretching out, hosting friends, or just letting the day slow down in your own comfortable space. On the main floor you’ll also find 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, perfect for guests or a home office. Upstairs? Your own private escape, the primary suite with a full bath, tucked away like a secret retreat. Several updates have been made, from the updated roof (mid-2024), fresh interior and exterior paint, a fully remodeled upstairs bathroom with an updated tub and subfloor, updated carpet in the stairway and primary suite, along with an updated washer, dryer, refrigerator, and gas stove to make daily living effortless. Step outside, and you’ve got a cedar and pine deck with built-in outlets and outdoor-rated fans for morning coffee or evening unwinding, plus a newly installed gravel firepit ready for crisp evenings under the stars. With plenty of room to spare, the backyard offers the perfect opportunity to add an ADU or second unit, whether you’re thinking guest house, rental income, or the ultimate creative studio. But let’s be real: You’re not just buying a house, you’re buying a lifestyle. And the location? Unbeatable. You’re right in the mix, just minutes from downtown, The University of Texas, and some of the best local shops and restaurants. Craving tacos at midnight? Need a last-minute gift? Want to be at a concert without planning your whole night around parking? Done! It’s all right here. Come see it for yourself!
