Elegance in Design Historical provenance, superb detailing, and a choice location
HOUSTON, TEXAS Once the home of President George H. W. Bush, this stunning two-story mid-century modern residence is situated in the sought-after Tanglewood neighborhood of the city. Offering four bed- rooms and five full and one half baths, the house has been beautifully updated by the current owner. Designed to host elegant gatherings, the floor plan is replete with a
number of formal rooms including generously scaled living and dining areas. Many rooms look through walls of windows to the large LED- illuminated pool. Lined with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, the study provides a quiet escape for the busy executive. The renovated island kitchen features ample cabinet space, Dacor and Sub-Zero appliances, and a separate breakfast room. Outside the family room, a covered poolside patio claims travertine decking and subtle overhead lighting.
The private quarters are headlined by a master suite with soft white
carpeting, plantation-shuttered windows, and art lighting. The en suite master bath is graced with Verde marble floors, three closets, his and her vanities, and a whirlpool tub. Three to four additional bedrooms provide superb guest accommodations—one has an en suite bath, while the other two share a Hollywood bath n
