Home Details
This light-filled Oak Forest cottage is the perfect blend of charm and functionality! Located in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Houston, 1726 Saxon Drive is an adorable 1940s home, full of character! It offers a cleverly-designed floor plan with a surprising amount of storage, rare 2-car garage, large windows, delightful built-ins, tasteful updates, and solid white oak hardwood flooring (original to the home). The backyard is a garden oasis! It is lush and manicured with a charming, 400sqft bonus shed. This open-air structure was built on a slab and already has power. Lovingly maintained, noteworthy updates to the home include: French drain (2025), sprinkler system (2023), new sewer line (2020), roof (2018), tankless water heater (2018), electrical panel (2018), photosensitive exterior lighting (2018), windows (2016), and more! Easy access to major freeways, but tucked back in a private neighborhood away from road noise. Never flooded! Welcome home!
