Located in the heart of Houston's popular Heights neighborhood, 824 Cortlandt St is a property that blends historic charm with an opportunity to build your dream home. Constructed in 1920, this multi-family residence spans 1,508 square feet and comprises 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. A standout feature is the updated 2-bedroom garage apartment situated above a 3-car garage. This configuration is grandfathered in, as current Heights Historic District regulations no longer permit such structures, enhancing its uniqueness and value. Families will appreciate the property's zoning to the esteemed Harvard Elementary School, recognized as a top-rated institution within HISD. This home is being sold as-is, presenting a unique opportunity for buyers to own a piece of Houston's architectural heritage.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
