We were honored to have sold such a special property. This home is a little slice of heaven with a great history.
HOUSTON (PRWEB) October 26, 2017
With a successful 27-years in Major League Baseball, Nolan Ryan got his start in the 1,194-square foot home on Dezso Drive. This charming home features four bedrooms, a full bathroom and a half bathroom, and a nice sized backyard that’s perfect for practicing pitching. The Wendet family purchased the property in 2010, and had made renovations but kept many of the original finishes.
“This home is a staple and a little piece of history in Alvin, Texas that can never be replaced. The new owners are lucky to call this iconic property home,” said Christina Wendet.
In a 1986 “Sports Illustrated” interview, Ryan discussed his childhood and what the home meant to him. "That's our street, Dezso Drive," he told writer Ron Fimrite, "Just the other side of that Jesus sign—this is Baptist country—and I was raised in that little house there. My mom still lives in it."
“We were honored to have sold such a special property. This home is a little slice of heaven with a great history,” said Lance Loken, Chief Executive Officer of The Loken Group.
