A Peaceful Respite in River Oaks

KIRBY Santa Barbara meets River Oaks. The home you’ve admired for years is now available. This spectacular Spanish Colonial custom home was designed & built by highly revered Mirador Builders. This is truly

The sun-drenched interior features a traditional floor plan with a European twist that is ideal for entertaining: Flanked by spacious formal rooms, the wide foyer transitions into an enormous, lightfilled, double-height stair hall at the home’s center where the graceful main staircase makes a lazy turn up to the open second-floor landing.

Sunny rooms are washed in a palette of pale pastels complemented by lightly-stained hardwood floors; floor-to-ceiling windows allow lovely garden views. An 18th Century antique painted mantel graces the fireplace in the living room. In the study, robin’s-egg blue book and display cabinets flank

A butler’s pantry/wet bar connects the dining room to the kitchen with access to the stair hall as well, making it an ideal location for a bartender or caterer when entertaining. Amenities include abundant cabinets and drawers, statuary marble countertops, an icemaker, wine chiller, and deep Waterworks sink.

Intelligent design, sleek professional-grade appliances, statuary marble, an antique-beamed plaster ceiling, and plaster walls make the kitchen a pleasure dome for a gourmet chef’s “batterie de cuisine.” Antique R E shutter doors conceal large dish F OY pantries, and an appliance pantry is equipped with a warming drawer. An old-fashioned sitting room adjoins the kitchen, enhanced by a fireplace with an 18th Century French stone mantle with over-mantle.

French doors in the kitchen access an inviting, vinecovered brick arbor that adjoins the family room.

Incorporating the best of coastal design and surrounded by tall French doors that open to the breeze and a covered patio, the family room includes a wall of storage and a fully-equipped wet bar hidden behind paneled doors. A half-bath

serves as a pool bathroom. A staircase behind the family room leads to a guest wing which includes a living/play room, two large guest bedrooms (or quarters) with luxurious private bathrooms, and access to a wide balcony overlooking the pool.

On the second floor of the main house, the luminous master bedroom suite offers serene comfort and luxury with a sitting area, fireplace with antique mantel, and a raised ceiling with antique beams. A pair of bathroom areas provides ultimate luxury with an enclosed statuary marble tub beneath a window, statuary marble countertops beneath mirrored walls, a seamlessglass steam-equipped shower, heated towel bars, and a private water closet with Toto toilet.

Both bathroom areas have walk-in closets with custom-designed storage. A massage/exercise room equipped with a wide-screen television and refrigerator drawers adjoins the bathroom areas.

Positioned across the main staircase landing from the master suite, spacious second and third bedrooms have raised ceilings and customized walk-in closets. They share a large Hollywood bathroom enhanced with Waterworks sinks and mirrors, handmade Waterworks white tile and shelving, and a seamless-glass tub/shower.

Banks of French doors across the rear of the house provide immediate O access to the covered patios, wide, Y R brick terrace, classically-styled pool, L I FA M and sweeping lawn, bringing this home’s indoor and outdoor spaces together for a truly integrated lifestyle.

M

A tall hedge surrounds the front lawn on each side of a picturesque iron gate at the foot of the brick front walk. Within the front enclosure, brick paths extend into a formal side garden of rose parterres edged in boxwood.

A second iron gate offers a glimpse of the sweeping lawn and gorgeous, treeshaded gardens that span the rear of the house.

tall windows that overlook the terrace and pool, creating an inviting reading or work space.

O

Understated elegance defines this interior designer’s much-published residence positioned on a wooded cul-de-sac adjoining River Oaks Boulevard. Reminiscent of a city estate in London’s exclusive St. John’s Wood, this Georgian-style, ivy-covered brick residence presents unparalleled privacy amid park-like grounds. The rare serenity of this property offers a peaceful respite in one of the finest locations in River Oaks.

A note from

“One may lack words to express the impact of beauty but

MARTHA & TOM

no one who has felt it remains untouched. It is renewal, enlargement, intensification. The parks preserve it permanently in the inheritance of the American citizens.” ― Bernard DeVoto

Our Dear Readers, Houston’s reputation as a vibrant city with a thriving economy and bustling downtown is well-deserved, but there’s more to the city than concrete and skyscrapers. Green and lush practically all year long, Houston is home to almost 40,000 acres of total park space for people and their pets to play, relax and unwind. From skate parks and bike trails to community gardens and fishing spots, the city’s parks give residents the chance to get outdoors and get going in beautiful spaces.

This issue of PROPERTIES offers updates on four of our city’s major parks as well as a look at the public/private partnerships playing pivotal roles in the redevelopment of all of Houston’s public green spaces. From pocket parks like Levy Park to mammoth Memorial Park, hundreds of our parks are supported by vital contributions of expertise and funds from private organizations and citizens.

Imagine what living in a park-like setting accomplishes for the spirit. Surrounded by sweeping lawns, superb gardens, and a screen of tall trees along a brick wall, our cover house offers a peaceful respite in one of the finest locations in River Oaks. This Georgian-style, ivy-covered brick residence occupies an exceptionally serene location on a secluded cul-de-sac adjoining River Oaks Boulevard.

There’s an old adage, “All real estate is local.” Martha Turner Sotheby’s International Realty is a leading, nationally-recognized real estate firm with global reach, but it’s our independent agents, Houston-area market and neighborhood professionals all, who put us on top. Inside this issue, we celebrate this exceptional sales force and its dedication to excellence.

We hope we’ve enticed you to get out and enjoy Houston’s rejuvenated, home-grown parks this summer. PROPERTIES will return in the fall and, in the meantime, should any of our selections make you think about a change of address, please call us. We’re here to serve your real estate needs in Houston – and around the globe.

I in 1917, the War Department identified 7,600 acres for troop training in an area that was then about five miles west of Houston proper. That space was called Camp Logan.

By 1923, after victory was declared, Camp Logan closed and the city was encouraged to purchase the land before it could be snapped up by developers. In 1924 Will and Mike Hogg bought 1,500 acres and sold it to the city for cost. Their sister, Ima Hogg, took on the role of guardian of the park becoming a champion of its preservation and saving it from multiple attempts at development. Landscape architects Hare and Hare devised a plan for the park calling for an 18-hole golf course, scenic drives and trails.

Today, nearly 10,000 joggers a day run along the three-mile loop through the park making it one of Houston’s most popular fitness destinations. But over the years the park grew shabby around the edges, and 2011’s devastating drought wiped out half the park’s trees. Reforestation became a huge priority.

Memorial Park Conservancy – founded in 2000 – has been a leader in efforts to re-develop the park.

Earlier this year, the group’s new master plan was accepted by the Houston City Council. In many ways, it echoes the park’s 1924 plan and embraces efforts to enhance the park’s natural setting.

“It was important to us to pay homage to that, and not lose the natural character of the park,” says Jeff Aten, senior associate with Nelson Byrd Woltz, the firm working with the Conservancy and the Uptown TIRZ #16 to improve Memorial Park. Aten says the plan keeps Memorial Park as an urban wilderness, even as improvements are made to recreation areas.

“This plan is about the next hundred years,” says Shellye Arnold, executive director of Memorial Park Conservancy. “As a society, we’re often disconnected from nature –we’re in offices, we’re looking at screens.

So, when we get outside, we have a chance to reconnect, to be healthy in spirit and in body. Parks provide that for us.”

Over the course of the next 20 years, plans for Memorial Park will enhance the space’s natural prairies

MEMORIAL PARK – Fulfilling a legacy

and meadows, as well as allow for improvements to the park’s existing ball fields and recreation spaces. Part of the park’s charm, say both Aten and Arnold, is the area’s wilderness.

“This plan plays to those strengths,” says Aten.

“And it’s an exciting partnership to see at work, the planning we’ve developed and the efforts of both the Conservancy and the Uptown TIRZ, and the city.”

George R. Brown Convention Center, the Hilton Americas Hotel and the Toyota Center is a strong heartbeat for downtown Houston. Discovery Green, created in partnership between the City of Houston, the Houston First Corporation and the Discovery Green Conservancy, is a park where every activity imaginable is available, from yoga classes to ice skating, from movies and concerts to fine dining to festivals. It’s also a place where you can sit and enjoy the sun.

“To my mind, it’s a game changer,” says Bob Eury, president of Central Houston, Inc. “It’s a public place in downtown that really became an essential part of life in the city.”

Opened in 2008 on what used to be a 12-acre, concrete eyesore, Discovery Green today is a flourishing green space with programming for young and old, where more than one million visitors a year come to learn and play.

The park estimates it has served as a catalyst for $625 million in downtown Houston development. More than a million visitors every year come to the park taking part in more than 600 different free events.

“When you put together a focus on high maintenance values and outstanding programming, you’re really ensuring a delightful environment that people want to come to,” says Eury. “Discovery Green is that rare gem: it’s a place where you have tons of programming and events, but it also accommodates the day in

RIVER OAKS AREA

Guy Hagstette, project manager for Buffalo Bayou Park sounds slightly breathless, both because at press time the park was half open – and because people were so excited to use it. Park goers have been enjoying the space even as construction crew put the finishing touches on the space for its opening later this Summer.

Snaking along Buffalo Bayou in the heart of Houston’s downtown, Buffalo Bayou Park grew up from the very banks where Houston was born.

“Houston exists because of Buffalo Bayou,” says Hagstette, citing the waterway’s importance as a growth engine for Houston’s trade and commerce. “And original plans for parks in 1912 called for designing linear parks along the bayous. What we’re doing is realizing that vision.”

Bayous snake all over Houston, hence its nickname “the Bayou City.” And these waterways provide not only important recreation opportunities, such as kayaking and canoeing, they’re essential ecological corridors providing homes for birds and wildlife that enhance the city. The Bayou Greenways 2020 project calls for using those bayous as both areas of recreation, as well as allowing them to serve their essential functions of water runoff during rainfalls and serving as a natural habitat. Development along the dozens of bayous across the city calls for bike and jogging trails, gardens, seating areas and spaces for bird watching. All totaled, the project develops, preserves and enhances nearly 150 miles of greenway.

“Sixty percent of Houstonians live within a mile and a half of a greenway or bayou,” says OkanVick, Executive Director of the Houston Parks Board. “And these are places that will allow people to navigate along these corridors and

A Gated Community of

15 Luxury Patio Homes

GRACE Native Houstonians Thomas Dorsey, Jr., and Mark Coerver, the principals of Live Oak Builders, grew up surrounded by the diverse architectural styles of Houston’s vintage neighborhoods such as West University and River Oaks. They came to appreciate the individual appearance of each home and the skillful way the developers and architects worked together to weave different designs within each block into a gracious and harmonious presentation.

Dorsey and Coerver create homes in neighborhoods that reflect and celebrate that same classic architectural diversity. Their most recent development, Grace Cove, a gated enclave in Spring Branch, is a case in point. The community of 15 luxury patio homes offers a distinctive selection of floorplans and finishes paired with innovative design and features.

“In Grace Cove, we have teamed with Sullivan Henry Oggero & Associates to build homes in a range of styles,” said Coerver. “No two houses are the same. We want Grace Cove to be a true neighborhood with interesting architectural elements and a variety of designs that appeal to everyone.”

“Grace Cove invites empty nesters and families alike,” said Dorsey.

“Spring Branch is an exceptionally well-located area, readily accessible from downtown, Memorial, the Galleria and the Energy Corridor, and it’s very easy to navigate. Grace Cove offers very high-end, approximately 3,500 square-foot homes in a gated community from the $700’s –

COVE

an excellent value this close to everything. And we’ve made sure that there’s plenty of guest parking within Grace Cove.”

“Plus, we are walking distance to the Regis School of the Sacred Heart and close to The Awty International School, Duchesne Academy of the Sacred Heart, and Second Baptist School,” added Coerver.

Interior surroundings in Grace Cove benefit from guidance by Sylvia Longoria Dorsey Interiors. Natural light is a common theme throughout, and many homes can be elevator-capable. Upscale amenities include a Wolf and SubZero appliance package, natural stone countertops, elegant dry bars with wine chillers, and cast stone fireplace mantels. Spacious, airy first-floor or second-floor master suites boast lavish bathrooms and room-sized, customized closets.

“We focus on details that add value and richness such as 12-foot ceilings, hardwood floors throughout the first and second levels, and stained hardwood ceilings in the exterior spaces,” said Coerver. “We take pride in going the extra mile.”

A Legacy It takes a lifetime of accomplishments to secure a legacy, and establish a gathering place where that legacy will flourish for generations is essential.

Such a special place should be reasonably close, secluded, protected, and expansive enough to offer the possibility of more than one residence, and encourage leisure and engaging activities within spectacular surroundings. And, to honor the hard work and planning that accompany building a legacy, it must be an excellent investment.

A Peaceful Respite in River Oaks

KIRBY Santa Barbara meets River Oaks. The home you’ve admired for years is now available. This spectacular Spanish Colonial custom home was designed & built by highly revered Mirador Builders. This is truly

The sun-drenched interior features a traditional floor plan with a European twist that is ideal for entertaining: Flanked by spacious formal rooms, the wide foyer transitions into an enormous, lightfilled, double-height stair hall at the home’s center where the graceful main staircase makes a lazy turn up to the open second-floor landing.

Sunny rooms are washed in a palette of pale pastels complemented by lightly-stained hardwood floors; floor-to-ceiling windows allow lovely garden views. An 18th Century antique painted mantel graces the fireplace in the living room. In the study, robin’s-egg blue book and display cabinets flank

A butler’s pantry/wet bar connects the dining room to the kitchen with access to the stair hall as well, making it an ideal location for a bartender or caterer when entertaining. Amenities include abundant cabinets and drawers, statuary marble countertops, an icemaker, wine chiller, and deep Waterworks sink.

Intelligent design, sleek professional-grade appliances, statuary marble, an antique-beamed plaster ceiling, and plaster walls make the kitchen a pleasure dome for a gourmet chef’s “batterie de cuisine.” Antique R E shutter doors conceal large dish F OY pantries, and an appliance pantry is equipped with a warming drawer. An old-fashioned sitting room adjoins the kitchen, enhanced by a fireplace with an 18th Century French stone mantle with over-mantle.

French doors in the kitchen access an inviting, vinecovered brick arbor that adjoins the family room.

Incorporating the best of coastal design and surrounded by tall French doors that open to the breeze and a covered patio, the family room includes a wall of storage and a fully-equipped wet bar hidden behind paneled doors. A half-bath

serves as a pool bathroom. A staircase behind the family room leads to a guest wing which includes a living/play room, two large guest bedrooms (or quarters) with luxurious private bathrooms, and access to a wide balcony overlooking the pool.

On the second floor of the main house, the luminous master bedroom suite offers serene comfort and luxury with a sitting area, fireplace with antique mantel, and a raised ceiling with antique beams. A pair of bathroom areas provides ultimate luxury with an enclosed statuary marble tub beneath a window, statuary marble countertops beneath mirrored walls, a seamlessglass steam-equipped shower, heated towel bars, and a private water closet with Toto toilet.

Both bathroom areas have walk-in closets with custom-designed storage. A massage/exercise room equipped with a wide-screen television and refrigerator drawers adjoins the bathroom areas.

Positioned across the main staircase landing from the master suite, spacious second and third bedrooms have raised ceilings and customized walk-in closets. They share a large Hollywood bathroom enhanced with Waterworks sinks and mirrors, handmade Waterworks white tile and shelving, and a seamless-glass tub/shower.

Banks of French doors across the rear of the house provide immediate O access to the covered patios, wide, Y R brick terrace, classically-styled pool, L I FA M and sweeping lawn, bringing this home’s indoor and outdoor spaces together for a truly integrated lifestyle.
