| This contemporary, three-story home, located in Houston's downtown museum district, is part of a nine-home development of upscale single-family homes in a gated complex. The home's design incorporates straight lines and uncluttered details expressed in natural textural materials - wood, stone and plaster - that contribute warmth and elegance to its character. Floor-to-ceiling windows are highlights. Inside, the floor plan is conducive to both privacy and entertaining. The home opens at street level to a foyer graced by a volume ceiling. A bedroom/den option with a full bath and an attached, two-car garage occupy the rest of this level. A spiral staircase, accented by a brushed-metal railing, rises from this level to the lanai on the roof deck. Living space is concentrated on the second floor and includes living and dining rooms, a wrap-around balcony, and a spacious kitchen/breakfast area, to which a dumbwaiter conveys groceries from the ground level. The master suite, which accounts for more than half of the third level, includes two walk-in closets and a deluxe bath that offers striking views of the surrounding city. An additional bedroom on this level has a private full bath and walk-in closet en suite. All of the development's nine homes were sited to capture the best roof-deck views possible and maximize available light and privacy. | |||||
