4106 Gramercy, with a little over 4,000 square feet of living space offers the ideal amount of pliability with its floor plan and layout. Also worth noting, dating back to prior years, this property was never negatively impacted by rising water during Hurricane Harvey (2017), Hurricane Ike (2008) or Tropical Storm Allison (2001).
As you approach the front elevation of the home, notice the exterior of the home is fully clad in brick which helps to mitigate concerns so many homeowners have regarding structures built with stucco.
The handsomely stained wood double doors open to a double volume entry. Take note of the beautiful solid wood floors found through the first floor of the home.
To the left of the foyer is this 14' x 13' room that could easily be utilized as a casual gaming room or music room, a formal living or, if you desired an office that was closed off for privacy, a little bit of sheetrock and some glass French doors would certainly achieve this result.
From the southwest corner of the room you are able to see the formal dining on the opposite side of the entry hall. To the left is the family room.
Measuring 18' x 17', this family room has a dual, built-in cabinets on the left, anchored by a wood burning fireplace. Floor-to-ceiling windows overlook the covered patio and sparkling pool and to the right is the breakfast room and kitchen which opens to the family room.
The kitchen stainless appliances were replaced by the owner in 2022 and the lighting was switched to LED. The service island also acts as a breakfast bar and to the right, not pictured, is a walk-in pantry.
This very functional kitchen is 15' x 13', has an American Standard sink with a window overlooking the driveway along one to watch young ones play in the gated driveway. Just on the other side of the island is the 11' x 10' breakfast room.
The perfect floor plan has been created as this breakfast area provides solutions for so many households: Have the kids close by doing homework while dinner is being made, enjoy your weekend cup of coffee in the confines of your home while the little ones play in the pool, step out the door to the left to handle some outdoor cooking under the covered patio. The door to the right leads to garage apartment via a covered breezeway that keeps you out of the elements.
The 9,333 square foot lot, just under a quarter of an acre, has a large swimming pool with an expansive pool surround for laying in the sun, if desired. To the right, there is plenty of green space to play...a rarity for homes at this price point inside the loop.
This adorable refuge is ideal as it sits under a canopy of leaves and overlooks the pool and yard space. The three windows & doors in this photograph on the right side of the house is where you will find the master bedroom.
Here is another angle that shows the mature tree screen that has been planted and maintained by the homeowners to provide this intimate setting on the north side of the grounds.
This photograph shows the north facing patio and it is worth mentioning that this retreat is ideally situated as it receives full shade from the structure of the home which gives a nice option should you want to entertain outside while avoiding the sun rays.
Stepping back into the home from the covered patio, here you will see the door behind the island that opens to the aforementioned walk-in pantry. Just beyond the refrigerator is the butler's pantry and laundry room.
Here is a view of the dining room from the threshold of the butler's pantry. The tray ceiling has a raceway detail to it which further enhances the formality of this room. Dual, south facing double pane windows overlook the front yard.
Here is a view of the butler's pantry which is perfectly situated between the kitchen and dining room. The fluted glass doors on the upper cabinetry allows you to display your fine china and stemware which a highly functional knee space makes for an ideal "mission control". Just opposite of this bar area is a 10' x 8' walk-in laundry room with additional storage space.
The 14' x 12' dining room can accommodate a 10' dining table, allowing for dinner for 10, if so desired. The bi-fold doors can be closed to provide a buffer between the kitchen and this formal room.
From this perspective, the corridor to the right of the card table and to the left of the built-in bookcase leads to a powder bath on the left side which services the first floor.
Here is another view of the family room with the covered patio on the other side of the arched glass windows. To the left of the built-in bookcase is a storage/coat closet with a vestibule to the right that leads to the master suite.
The master bedroom is 19' x 16' and offers a grand space which can easily accommodate a seating nook or even a work station if needed. The French doors on the right open to the covered patio in the backyard.
From this angle, just inside the French doors that lead to the backyard, you will see the bi-fold doors which open to the master bath and wardrobe closet.
The 15' x 12' bathroom has every amenity you can think of; dual vanities, a hydrotherapy tub, a walk-in shower, a water closet and glass block windows which provide an abundance of natural light while maintaining privacy.
The make-up vanity is a highly desired amenity for most. Should the need not be necessary for you, easily install an undercounter beverage refrigerator to create the perfect morning bar. The doors to the right lead to the wardrobe closet.
With approximately 1,000 cu. ft. of storage space, this wardrobe closet has built-in shelving for shoes and purses, a double-column dresser for foldable clothing and 40+ linear feet of hanging space for your wardrobe.
Here is another view of the bathroom standing just outside of the closet. To the left of frame, not photographed, is the private water closet.
Stepping back into the master bedroom, notice the double tray ceiling which has a semi-octagonal shape to it. The owner recently replaced the motherboards to each of the HVAC systems to ensure optimal functionality for the heating and cooling of the home.
As you make your way from the master suite towards the entry, the stairs, located in the center axis, provide great functionality to wander upstairs to the three secondary bedrooms.
As you arrive at the landing of the stairs, to the left you will find the 17' x 15' game room with plush carpet flooring.
The entertainment wall has an undercounter beverage refrigerator integrated into the wall of custom cabinetry. Four north facing windows provide ample natural, indirect sunlight to this room.
Here is another view of the game room which also shows the doors that lead to the three bedrooms. Notice that each of the bedrooms is separated from each other which helps to provide optimal privacy as none have a shared wall.
This bedroom, located in the northeast corner of the structure has a north facing window with an attached Jack & Jill bath to the right.
The Jack & Jill bath has an overall dimension of 16' x 5'. This layout is the one that is selected most often as it allows for two three individuals to utilize the space at one time. Imagine a child brushing their teeth in the left section, another taking a bath in the middle section and a third practicing their lines in the school play in the mirror in the far section.
This 14' x 12' southeast bedroom has two windows overlooking the front yard, a 5-light ceiling fan which helps to circulate the air and plush carpet flooring.
Here we stand at the corner of the game room which shows a door in center frame which services the game room as well as the third bedroom on this floor which can be accessed through the doorway to the left.
This bedroom is situated in the southwest corner of the home and has an en suite bathroom to the right of the bed.
Here is a view of the secondary bathroom which services the bedroom and game room. This bathroom, a Hollywood bath, has a vanity counter with sink and a separate door that encloses the tub/shower and commode, which allows for two people to utilize this bathroom at one time.
The view of the game room from the threshold of the bathroom shows the vaulted ceiling which give a voluminous effect to this upstairs game room.
The view from the landing of the stairs leads to the front door with its divided light, south facing window allow natural light into the area while the solid wood door maintains privacy from the street.
Here is a view of the backyard with the covered breezeway that leads to the two-car garage and the living quarters above it.
Situated above the garage, this 556 square foot garage apartment is large enough to serve multiple purposes. This can be utilized as a massive play room, a fifth bedroom, a home office, or all three at once. The three south facing windows overlook the gated driveway.
The quarters also has a kitchenette with separate HVAC system as well as a full bath to service the space.
The full bath has a tub/shower combination with a headknocker over the commode to store towels and linens. The garage apartment also has a large storage closet in the far southwest corner of the room.
Here is the view of the backyard from the threshold of the garage. Notice the lovely home to the left is a one story which allows ample sunlight to the backyard. With the quarters above the garage, a separate living space for in-laws or an au pair become an option. Or when the college-aged children come back to the nest, they have a place to hang out. Or a spouse yearning for a man cave or she-shed can be as rambunctious as they want to without impacting the rest of the household.
