The owners worked with Kurt Aichler as their architect and Bardwell Builders to custom build this very special home on a 9,000 (HCAD) sq. ft. lot on the corner of Vanderbilt and Carnegie. 
Most likely you have admired this one many times when driving down Vanderbilt.
The architecture is just stunning. Very Zen-like and calming.
Natural light coming in from all directions!

The library/study is approximately 17' x 17' with high beamed ceilings, wall of built-in bookshelves, woodburning fireplace and beautiful windows overlooking the front yard gardens. To the right is the sunroom.
The sunroom approximately 19' x 8' overlooks the backyard garden and pool.
Virtually painted trim in the kitchen.
The kitchen, approximately 18' x 16' is exceptional with honed slate counters, stainless steel appliances, double ovens, breakfast bar, built-in bookshelves and ample storage cabinets.

The kitchen leads to the family room on one end and the butler's pantry on the other. 
The butler's pantry with wet bar and wine refrigerator. The door on the right is a fabulous walk-in pantry.
Den or great room overlooks the backyard garden and pool.
This is a virtural photo of the backyard showing how it would look with grass instead of the flagstone. The lot is 9,000 s.f. and the backyard is spacious and good be very green by changing out the flagstone for grass or turf.
This is another virtual photo of the backyard to illustrate how large the yard is. You decide if you want low maintain or grass. You can actually have both if you go with turf!
This is view from the family room. A lovely lap pool with flagstone surround. Grass or turf could be added if you prefer more green space.
The home is just as lovely from the back. 
The first floor powder room.
This is the second floor landing looking into the playroom and/or 2nd floor library study.
This room, approximately 16' x 15' could be your children's playroom or a second library/study or...an exercise room or whatever you need it for.
