Welcome to 5005 W. 43rd St in Oak Forest.
A one-car garage and two-car carport provide ample covered parking and protection from the Houston sun.
A welcoming covered front porch with a gated enclosure adds charm while providing an extra layer of security for pets that may try to slip out the front door.
A bright, welcoming front entry showcases the home’s original hardwood floors
The original floor plan has been opened to create an airy, connected layout featuring a welcoming seating area and formal dining space upon entry. (Bookshelves are freestanding and not included.)
Currently arranged as a cozy music-listening and reading area, this flexible space offers plenty of possibilities to suit your lifestyle.
The spacious formal dining room comfortably accommodates a large table, making it ideal for everything from intimate dinners to hosting a crowd.
View of the kitchen featuring a peninsula island with bar seating for casual dining.
The peninsula features a gas cooktop with a sleek stainless-steel overhead vent hood, allowing the cook to stay connected to the surrounding living and dining spaces.
The updated kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and generous workspace, with an open view toward the adjoining living and dining areas.
The open layout creates an easy flow from the kitchen and breakfast area into the family room, keeping the main living spaces connected.
The bright breakfast area offers plenty of room for everyday dining and opens seamlessly to the kitchen and adjoining living spaces.
The spacious family room sits at the back of the home and offers direct access to the covered patio and backyard.
The seller-added covered patio extends the home’s living space outdoors (just off of the family room), creating a comfortable spot for dining, entertaining, and enjoying the backyard.
Back inside, the home’s natural flow leads through the kitchen, past the front sitting area, and into the bedroom wing, where you’ll find the primary suite.
The spacious primary bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-size bed with room for additional???????????????????????????????? furnishings.

A built-in shower niche provides convenient storage for shampoo, soap, and other bath essentials.
Continuing down the hallway, you’ll find the secondary bathroom and two additional bedrooms.
The updated secondary bathroom offers generous counter space, ample storage, and a convenient tub-and-shower combination.
Updated Tub/Shower
This secondary bedroom is currently used as a home office, showcasing the room’s flexibility for working, studying, or welcoming overnight guests.
The third bedroom is currently arranged as a child’s room and features natural light, original hardwood flooring, and space for both sleeping and play.
Another vantage point of the third bedroom highlights its comfortable layout and generous closet space.
The fully turfed backyard offers easy, low-maintenance outdoor space with plenty of room for playtime and entertaining.
