In the midst of Center Street Sugar Land proudly sits this sturdy craftsman inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright himself. Take in the smells of freshly baked Denny's Donuts from the quintessential front porch. This 1925 classsic has most of the original woodwork and flooring throughout. A fireplace true to the era of the home is wrapped in beautiful built-ins. The dining room showcases french doors creating a nice division from the huge living room while maintaining an open site line. Once upon a time the oversized kitchen and main level full bathroom where added to the home. Up the original staircase you'll find three very generously sized bedrooms with a shared full bath complete with a claw foot tub and penny tile floor. All appliances remain including a washer and dryer. A one car garage at the rear of the property has a newer metal roof along with a new garage door and opener. The lean-to with a seperate door is perfect dry storage for your yard machines or gardening materials. This lot is very low maintenance and the private backyard could be a marvelous place for outdoor entertaining or a garden plot. There is alot of sweat equity available with this timeless craftsman in a marvelous location! This South Hill stunner is just a holler away from Gene's Ice Cream allowing you to return home before your treat melts. Property is being sold as-is.
