Designed by the architect for himself, the flexible floor-plan offers a multitude of possibilities for living room and dining areas either up or down. Spacious primary suite with large walk-in closets and dual bathrooms. This home is full of character and while has many modern features, is still full of architectural finishes that pay homage to the more historic homes in the area. Cleverly designed to look out onto the lush, green side yard and onto the city owned "Vassar Spaceway". This is a terrific opportunity to update a very private home located just minutes to World-class museums, shops and restaurants. Not to mention easy access to The Texas Medical Center!
