Listing Description
Storybook charm meets modern comfort in this preserved 1930 brick Tudor in the heart of Magnolia. 4 bed / 2.25 bath, 2,590 SF across three levels with original oak hardwoods, coved living room ceilings with wood beams, and timeless Tudor architecture. Main floor: large living room, spacious dining, updated kitchen, full bath, flexible bedroom. Upstairs: primary with two closets + spa-inspired bathroom. Walk-out lower level: family room, generous bedroom, half bath, roomy laundry/mudroom. New windows, updated electrical and plumbing, modern HVAC with AC, tankless water heater, EV-ready charging. Large patio with fire pit, mature landscaping, low maintenance turf. Two covered parking spots.
Bottom Line
This 1930 brick Tudor punches above its price โ€” 4 beds, 2 covered spots, a 5,750 sqft lot, and fully modernized systems (AC, tankless HWH, EV charger, new windows and plumbing) in Magnolia for $1.585M is eye-catching. The key question is the sqft discrepancy: the description says 2,590 SF (shy of A) while Redfin metadata shows 2,860 (would qualify A). Confirm the MLS figure before classifying further. The sub-B price likely reflects the 1930 vintage and possible condition unknowns โ€” worth a fast look and inspector eyes to understand the real all-in cost. Listed today, so you're early.
