4607 Oak Ridge Street Houston, Texas 77009 États-Unis

Located on a quiet street in Houston's historic Norhill neighborhood, this 1930 bungalow offers a rare blend of preserved history, thoughtful updates, and modern comfort. Originally built as a working-class streetcar suburb home, it has been lovingly cared for by only three families in its 95-year history. Expanded and restored by Morningside Architects and Lucas Craftsmanship, every detail was intentionally chosen to honor its heritage while providing the space and amenities of today's living. Period character abounds with preserved trim profiles, restored original doors with working mortise boxes and skeleton keys, and tile selections that echo the home's 1930s roots. Even the front porch columns were painstakingly stripped to reveal their original brick finish. Celebrated for its design and character, this home was featured on the Norhill Bungalow Home Tour. At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen, designed in collaboration with award-winning kitchen designer Joey Olsen. Every cabinet, drawer, and layout decision was created for both function and flow, making it a true centerpiece for daily living and effortless entertaining. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite provides a serene retreat with a beautifully appointed bath and large walk-in closet, seamlessly integrating modern convenience with timeless style. Additional highlights include an oversized one-car garage, a beautifully landscaped yard ideal for outdoor living, and a Kohler 24kW whole-house generator for peace of mind. Recent updates reflect ongoing stewardship and care: new roof (2022), siding replacement and exterior paint (2023), tankless water heater (2021), and high-efficiency Lennox HVAC system (2020). For nearly a century, this Norhill gem has been the backdrop for family milestones, holiday gatherings, and neighborhood traditions. With its combination of historic integrity, modern updates, and warm, inviting spaces both inside and out, 4607 Oak Ridge is truly one of a kind and ready for its next chapter.
