    What's special

    Historical grandeur is perfectly blended with modern undertones in this gorgeous home nestled on a tree-lined street only minutes from downtown Houston. Time has stood still for this glorious 1910 residence as it embraces exquisite millwork and exceptional attention to detail marked by refined touches that are original to its structure. The charming front porch gives notice that a warm, comfortable lifestyle is only steps away. Epitomizing flawless design, rooms are adorned with deep multi-piece molding, substantial baseboards, block paneled wainscoting and handsomely encased windows. A blend of inspiration and beautiful architecture is evident with serene vistas embracing sun-lit views in every direction. Anchored by the original 1910 hardwood floors, the living rooms appeal is heightened by its tray mahogany beamed ceiling. A three dimensional space creates a wonderful flow for entertaining as the living room, dining room and kitchen flawlessly interconnect. Gracing the dining room is one of the original hallmarks, a 1910 breakfront. The kitchen is a cooks delight featuring granite counter tops, an 8-burner gas cooktop and top-of the line appliances. A massive granite island boasting additional storage and wine refrigerator, serves as the centerpiece of the room with ample pull-up seating. Resplendent in natural light, the adjacent family room has banks of windows employing a view of the spectacular back yard and pool. A secondary bedroom with full bath, well-appointed laundry room and mud room complete the downstairs. Three additional en suite bedrooms and picture perfect landing are upstairs. Luxury and comfort blend effortlessly in the stunning sunken master suite. It has 13 soaring ceilings, private reading nook, luxurious bath with dual granite vanities, private water closet, separate tub w/walk-in shower and oversized closet. The backyard is a paradise for resort-style living embellished by lush landscaping, sparkling pool and delightful pergola.
