Located at 818 Pinemont Dr in Houston, TX, this single-story home showcases a thoughtfully updated interior with consistent modern finishes throughout. Light wood-tone luxury vinyl plank flooring runs through every room, complemented by neutral gray walls and clean white baseboards, creating a cohesive and contemporary aesthetic. The kitchen is a standout feature, offering white shaker-style cabinetry, dark granite countertops, and a mosaic tile backsplash in shades of gray and black. Stainless steel appliances — including a gas range, microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher — complete the well-appointed space. A peninsula with matching countertop provides additional prep space and casual dining. The bedrooms are generously sized, each equipped with ceiling fans for added comfort. Natural light filters in through window blinds, enhancing the open and airy feel of the rooms. A spacious walk-in closet with wire shelving and hanging rods offers ample storage.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
