Transporting Old World romance to the fashionable Memorial area of Houston, the heartwarming manor brims with a captivating charm that was orchestrated for both grand-scale entertaining and intimate family warmth. From the moment you enter its baronial stained-glass entrance hall, it captures your heart. Within the slate-roofed masterpiece, massive wood doorways and a towering castle-inspired staircase introduce the various areas. Wide-plank vintage oak floors and a double-storied mahogany library infuse warmth to the architectural heart of the house—a two-story great room with massive stone fireplace. Other settings are the formal oak-beamed dining room, chef’s kitchen with breakfast room, temperature-controlled wine room, and media room. A generous portion of the 7,442 square feet is devoted to a first-floor master suite with dual baths and intricate coved ceiling, and to four other spacious bedroom areas. Ravishing gardens lend tranquillity throughout the manor, complementing the beauty of the interiors with a stone-accented loggia, summer kitchen, and stunning saltwater swimming pool with outdoor bath.
