Masterfully expanded and reimagined in 2020, this Historic Queen Anne blends old world charm with whimsical modern for a one of a kind showcase. Upon approach, a white picket fence gives way to a native front garden with a classic rounded porch. Inside, thanks to M ARCHITECTURE, is a cleanly designed modern living space with interior selections by Victoria Sheffield House Design that play expertly well with the original Victorian features of the home. First floor primary bedroom, formal sitting, tall ceilings, hardwood floors, game room up, rear covered porch, and a 672 SF garage apartment above the detached garage with private parking. Whole home generator! Home was featured in HGTV Magazine November 2021, and featured in Modern Architecture + Design Society’s 2025 Houston Modern Home Tour.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
