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.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
