NEW ROOF 04/2026! Situated on 3.995 unrestricted acres in Highlands, this 1-story property offers space, flexibility, and a lifestyle that’s hard to find. The location provides a manageable commute to Houston while still feeling removed from city living. The main residence features a great layout with large bedrooms, walk-in closets, no carpet, and abundant storage. A window-filled sunroom adds flexible living space, ideal for a home office. The separate guest quarters is perfect for extended family, a private office, and has income producing potential. Outdoor features include a large metal building/shop, pond, and existing chicken coop. Animals are allowed, with nearby properties featuring horses and cattle, making this property ideal for homesteading. You’d never know there’s NO HOA because Burwell Rd is beautifully maintained with neighboring properties showing pride of ownership. The property sits high and dry with no history of flooding. The possibilities here are wide open!
