The home was completely renovated and modernized during a 3 year project that spanned from 2020 in 2023. It is conveniently located 10 miles outside of downtown Houston and is only a 15 minute drive from Montrose, The Heights, Galleria area, and much more. Although close to downtown, you'll feel like you're out in the country. The house sits on a 2 acre lot amidst a community of homes on very large lots with many mature trees. The home is particularly unique due to its massive, yet serene backyard. It is a true wellness inspired sanctuary. A large, Olympic size pool with glass tiled spa area forms the focal point. A 3500 sq. ft. deck surrounds the pool and is clad in neutral stone which perfectly reflects natural light for photo and video shoots. Lush emerald zoysia grass creates a serene feel. Four Seasons style resort furniture adds an elegant and relaxing touch. Other amenities include a beautifully curated organic vegetable garden, an elegant 10 person Finnish style dry sauna, and lots of natural wildlife (birds, butterflies, etc.) The backyard is completely screened by thick foliage, mature 100 ft. tall trees, and shrubs. A sliding wall of windows opens completely to allow a seamless flow from indoor solarium and kitchen area to the outdoors. This style of full nature immersion living is rare for Houston and evokes Miami and Southern California vibes. Décor is neutral colors with contrasting black accents – a designers dream. The circular driveway can accommodate 30+ cars, while an auxiliary driveway allows direct access to the back of the property for easy loading / unloading. Open to events larger than 50 people on a case by case basis – please inquire. Additional property features can be made available on a case by case basis for an additional charge.
