Property details
About 509 Houston Street
WOW! Talk about SPACE and CHARM and districted to coveted Augusta Circle Elementary, but walking distance to EVERYTHING downtown! This home is basically completely redone from what the owners have done to it, while maintaining so much of the original charm. Step right into this open floorplan while still having defined spaces. Perfect front office/nook for home-schooling days, dining room, large updated granite kitchen (enormous pantry), and HUGE living space. And don't miss the cute Harry Potter cubby under the stairs! The owner's bedroom and the guest room on the main floor both feature a charming masonry fireplace from yesteryear. Upstairs there's space galore - a huge playroom/bonus room for the kids, and two enormous bedrooms + a large bathroom to share. The backyard is HUGE. Everything about this home screams SPACE. Tons of space to add an attached or detached garage, and still have plenty of yard to spare.
