This thoughtfully renovated Woodland Heights home is situated on a 7,500 sf lot and is a true southern treasure that has been lovingly restored to incorporate original details and other magnificently beautiful reclaimed pieces that fit organically within the space. 
Amazing front porch with painted stencil work spans the width of the house. This neighborhood is a true front porch neighborhood where neighbors sit out on their porches daily and socialize while the kids play in the front yard.
This home has a nice open feel, but the pocket doors allow for the spaces to be defined when desired. 
The stunning antique chandelier in the dining room is from a hotel in New Orleans that the homeowners sought out as they knew it would be the perfect fit. It is definitely a statement piece that looks like it belonged here all along. 
All original windows were refurbished and tempered wavy glass was sourced when needed to stay authentic with the style throughout. It's all in the details!
The beautiful pocket doors are thought to be original to the home. 
The second living space/study has a single pocket door to allow you to close the room off and features these amazing navy lacquered walls, the perfect art gallery backdrop!
The powder bath is its own little jewel box with gorgeous wallpaper, marble tile floor and a pedestal sink. 
This home is perfect for entertaining and the living room is the perfect space for friends and family to gather.
The antique hardwood floors are from an old cattle house in Hockley, TX that were custom milled for this home. Every detail of this home was thoughtfully considered and materials were either salvaged or carefully sourced which resulted in a true neighborhood gem that you truly must see to appreciate!
The entry of this home really sets the tone of what is to come. Notice the gorgeous Turkish antique chandelier, intricate wall sconces and refurbished original door with antique hardware and transom window above.
There are two perfect nooks between the dining room and kitchen that make a great wine and coffee bar and also provides additional storage. A whole house water filtration system was also installed in 2017 which is a wonderful upgrade!
The beautifully appointed kitchen features an island, soapstone and marble counters, subzero refrigerator with matching cabinet front panel, Wolf 48" gas range and exceptional storage!
Additional view of the kitchen. The door leads to a walk-in pantry with automatic light, the dishwasher also has a matching cabinet front to provide a seamless look and the lighting over the island adds to the vintage charm of the kitchen. 
The matching pair of 150-year-old Brazilian doors were added as a beautiful architectural detail and also provides additional storage. When renovating this home, storage was carved out at every space imaginable, because you can never have too much storage! 
The breakfast nook with custom built bench and window coverings overlooks the backyard. The perfect corner to start your day!
The lovely downstairs primary bedroom gets lots of natural light! The primary suite offers an en-suite bath and walk-in closet as well. 
The wallpaper accent wall in the recessed nook is a stylish design detail. 
The primary bath features a vintage buffet piece that has been converted to a vanity with two sinks, shower with subway tile and rain shower, marble hexagon flooring and clawfoot tub. 
Additional view of the primary bath showing the clawfoot tub and tile accent wall.
Additional living space upstairs could be utilized as a playroom or home office.
The spacious second bedroom with beautiful views of the trees has two closets for storage. 
The third bedroom gets great natural light and provides the feel of being in a treehouse!
Full bath on the second floor with shiplap walls and ceiling, vanity that is painted a vibrant green for a fun splash of color, separate water closet and tub/shower. This bathroom is easily accessible to both second floor bedrooms and the gameroom. 
Second floor laundry room with sink and shelving. 
The backyard features a mix of gravel, mature trees and landscaping. The flower beds along the back and west side of the home are fitted with a drip irrigation system for easy maintenance and there is also a side yard with grass. 
Rare, 4-car garage with additional workshop space and 893 sf (per HCAD) apartment above is a welcome addition to this home. This view also gives a better idea of the size of the yard on this oversized lot. 
The one-bedroom garage apartment is like having another complete home in your backyard! This 893 sf foot space offers a full kitchen, full bath and living room. This is a perfectly comfortable space for your most favorite guests- except they may not want to leave!
The kitchen features an island with wood counter, gas range, dishwasher, full size refrigerator and great cabinet space. 
The tongue and groove ceiling is an ode to the main house and there is great wall space here to display an art collection. 
Bedroom in the garage apartment. The bookcase on the right opens up to allow furniture to be easily moved in through the front door. In the closet of this room there is a compact washer (no dryer). 
Full bath in the garage apartment. The vanity was custom made using another antique furniture piece.
