Property Description
This stunning French Colonial estate, designed by famed architect Birdsall P. Briscoe, is inspired by New Orleans' iconic Le Carpentier-Beauregard house. Set on over half an acre, it blends historic charm with modern luxury. Formal rooms flow gracefully, complemented by a paneled library with brass bar and 360-bottle wine cellar. The gourmet kitchen offers a sunny breakfast nook, which opens on a light-filled sunroom with custom steel doors that overlooks the north lawn, pool, and manicured gardens. Upstairs, you'll find the primary suite with a fireplace and elegant bath, three guest suites, and a versatile family room. Other bonus features include soaring ceilings, elevator, two staircases, home generator, basement storage, and gated motor court leading to a two-car garage. A private guest house offers a downstairs lounge, upstairs suite, and almost 1000 sq ft. A rare opportunity to own a masterfully restored architectural gem in one of Houston's most prestigious neighborhoods.
