Ready to build the dream home you’ve been talking about for years? Want your children to attend acclaimed River Oaks-area schools? (Buyer to verify eligibility for attendance.) This prime Pelham Drive lot is finally ready for its next act. It’s 9550 square feet (per HCAD) of space – plenty of room to build a large home and pool, anchored by mature trees in both the front and back yards. The site is just three houses east of Kirby Drive and two blocks north of San Felipe – essentially the heart of River Oaks and close to River Oaks Elementary. Handsome new construction as well as elegantly preserved vintage homes are all around. The original 1936 home is uninhabitable, and this property is being offered as a lot. At less than $186 per square foot, it represents a superlative opportunity for a new single-family home. As this is an estate, all offers will be subject to approval of probate court.
