HOUSTON, TX — Looking to spend $1,000,000 on a home (or home site)? If so, you've come to the right place, because Patch and Realtor.com have lined up five perfect listings that fit that bill. All of these properties are ready to go, and you can see them by calling to set up a viewing appointment.

Let's start with this brick beauty, which boasts 3,300 square feet of space and sits on a giant plot of land — 15,805 square feet — on Rummel Creek Road. It was built in 1960, and totally renovated in 2009. Wolf appliances and mahogany cabinets in the kitchen, wonderful built-ins, walk-in butler's pantry ... need we say more? Oh yes, there's a plethora of large windows to let in the natural light, and it's within walking distance of Rummel Elementary School.

It's listed for $1,079,000 (the seller is a licensed real estate agent), and you can see it by making an appointment. See all the details here.

Next up, a wonderful townhouse-like domain in a gated community in the Memorial area. You could have nearly 4,000 square feet of living space, three bedrooms, and four full baths, all for an even $1,000,000. How about Gaggenau appliances, gated yard, marble galore in the kitchen, and spacious closets? You know you want this, so click here for all of the photos and details.

Now here's something totally different. You know how expensive land can be in some parts of the city, and finding a prime spot on which to build can be like locating a needle in a haystack. Take a look at this piece of land on Morrison Street in Highland Park ... it's 0.29 acres, and the house on it can be yours to do with as you wish.

Ah ... we love light and relaxing interiors, and this one is all of that and more. It has a little more than 4,000 square feet of living space and is full of intelligence design and open areas. If you like a hefty dose of modern, put this one on your must-see list. It's on Nantucket Drive, has three bedrooms and three full baths, and 14-foot ceilings.

Finally for this week, let's take a look at a listing that's being sold at lot value. It's located in West University Place, and it's a 7,500-square-foot piece of land with three bedrooms and two full baths. The traditional-style home is in good shape, but it's a good bet that the purchaser of this property will tear it down and build their dream home. Ready?
