About this property
Lightly Furnished Midtown Duplex- For Rent
(2 bedroom, 1 bath, 1200 square feet)
The house is a duplex, located in the center of Houston in the tri-location of Montrose, Downtown, and Midtown. The house has three stories but is divided into two units. The upper unit (405), located on the second and third floor (with an attic loft and washer and dryer in the laundry), is the one that is available for rent. The bottom unit (403) is occupied by the landlord.
The house has historic roots by being located a few blocks away from what is called today Freedman Town, also known as 4th Ward, the neighborhood of the 1st freed slaves. In addition, the house is located in the crux of several museum districts: the classical and contemporary art district, which comprises The Museum of Fine Arts, The Contemporary Art Museum (CAM), and the Menil, as well as the Holocaust Museum. Since there are so many places of history and art combined that surround the 100-year old Drew House home, it has taken its own name to honor cultural neighborhood richness: Museum DeSanto_ Casa de MariSol. Hopefully, you will be creatively inspired as you embark on this new and rich adventure, upon taking up residence at MD_CDMS.
