Description

Tucked at the end of a private cul-de-sac in Memorial Thicket, this 4-bedroom, 3-full and 2-half-bath home offers 4,574 square feet of light-filled living with a pool and large patio. Arched openings, floor-to-ceiling windows and two generous living areas—one with custom built-ins—create an inviting flow for entertaining. The chef’s kitchen features a large range, double ovens, built-in Kitchen-Aid refrigerator, farmhouse sink, abundant storage and a wine closet. The first-floor primary suite includes a sitting area, spacious custom closet and renovated bath with a freestanding tub, open shower and quartz countertops. A dedicated study and flexible formal dining or sitting room flank the foyer. Following flooding during Harvey related to reservoir releases, the first floor was taken to the studs and rebuilt, and the exterior stucco was replaced; the home has not flooded since. Fresh interior and exterior paint, cleaned carpet and refreshed landscaping complete the home.
