From the Agent: "This superbly restored midcentury home is sited on a towering bluff above Buffalo Bayou. Designed in 1970 by architect Jack Stehling, it was extensively renovated in 2018-20 per the seller. The home features light-filled, open spaces with full-length windows and glass slider doors, a massive, three-story glass atrium at the rear with panoramic views, gleaming terrazzo floors, and a conversation pit surrounded by Madagascan dalbergia rosewood paneling. The modern kitchen comes with sleek cabinets, a Gaggenau refrigerator/freezer, Blumotion soft-close drawers, and a Bosch cooktop."
Full-heigh windows wrap around the renovated home, complementing its brick walls.
