Meticulously constructed by Lovett Homes, this four-bedroom townhome is located in the heart of the Texas Medical Center. Being an "end-unit", this property is one of the rare few that has a spacious yard to go with the large private patio.
Helping to alleviate concerns by the stucco damage, a constant concern in our Houston climate, this home was construct with an all-brick facade. To soften this front elevation, mature landscaping, with amazing azaleas and manicured shrubs, is meticulously maintained for you by the Home Owner's Association.
As you open the door to this 2,715 square foot home, your guests are welcomed with rich hardwoods, which continue throughout the entire first floor.
Coupling the 10' ceilings with French doors leading to the private patio and oversized windows, the room feels large and spacious as additional natural light is afforded to this home as a result of being the "end-unit".
The 21' x 15' living room's focal point is the gas log fireplace anchored by two windows that overlook the side yard.
The highly functional kitchen offers plenty of storage and antimicrobial Corian counters.
Should you desire to close off the kitchen from the living room during a dinner party, bi-fold doors are afforded to the room to provide this layer of privacy. The doorway to the right of the refrigerator leads to the formal dining room.
The 13' x 11' dining room is large enough for your holiday dinners and has a Butler's door that can close off the kitchen from the room.
Stepping back into the 17' x 11' kitchen, a breakfast area is dedicated adjacent to the windows at the far end of the room. 
A rarity for the neighborhood is this large, brick-paved patio just off of the kitchen and living room, an ideal spot to enjoy alfresco dining. Notice not just the lush screen of landscaping, but the lack of HVAC components in the middle of the yard. Having these HVAC units on the roof instead of a few inches from your patio help to make this extension of living space one that can be enjoyed without the loud sounds of a constantly running air conditioner.
Notice the large side yard that is provided to less than a handle of properties. Also worth mentioning, there is no massive electrical/transformer box in the yard as that service box is located in the yard of another property.
Stepping back into the living room from the patio you will see the hallway leading to the entry foyer with a door to the left accessing the half bath which provides service to the first floor. To the right is a large, cased opening that is the main entry into the formal dining room.
Captured here is the formal dining room as seen from the living room entrance.
As you make your way to the second floor landing and enter the 21' x 19' master bedroom, you immediately notice the vaulted ceiling and tasteful window coverings.
The warmth of the room is accentuated with east and south facing windows. The door to the left leads to the large master closet while the door to the right brings you to the master bath.
The master bath offers a dual sink vanity with a walk-in shower to the right of that. A jetted tub and private water closet are also amenties worth noting. The partially opened door leads to the master closet.
Photographed here is only one side of the master closet with a second area for clothes and shoes for the second member of the household.
One thoughtful detail which is hard to articulate in photographs is the layout of the bedrooms. The builder elected to locate the master bedroom on the opposite end of the other two bedrooms on the second floor...ideal for privacy.
This secondary bedroom measures 13' x 11', has dual west-facing windows and is located at the end of the hallway, next to the full bathroom that measures 11' x 6'.
Measuring 14' x 11', this bedroom is located on the second floor adjacent to the full bath. Not photographed is the utility room in the hallway, an ideal location for laundry.
Located on the third floor is the fourth bedroom, measuring 16' x 15'. A full bath already in place negates the concern over the high costs and unknown price to take a "dedicated area" and make it a full bath.
If a fourth bedroom is not needed, with surround sound speakers installed, this 3rd floor flex room can act as a media room, game room, play room or home office.
Another view of the exterior of the home shows the width of the fence, helping to expose how wide the yard truly is. Also worth noting is the location of the townhouse does not back up to the busy West Holcombe Boulevard, alleviating the concern over constant road noise.
Built with some of the finest materials, Devonshire Park is a gated community located in the heart of the Medical Center.
The Texas Medical Center is less than a mile away, a perfect location for an individual that works in the medical center or for those that desire close proximity to health care facilities.
Tabbed as a Southern Ivy League school, Rice University is the "crown jewel" of Houston s universities which include St. Thomas, University of Houston and Texas Southern...all only a few miles away from 6865 Staffordshire.
Roberts Elementary has achieved the highest ranking, Exemplary, from HISD. The school is less than 2 miles away and has been designated as a Spark Park, allowing the public to enjoy the grounds during non-school hours.
Devonshire Park, in the Devonshire Place gated subdivision is a deed restricted community with annual dues that cover the landscaping, cable television, water and sewer.
6865 Staffordshire is a true 4 bedroom home, with 3 1/2 baths, on a large corner lot located several hundred feet away from West Holcombe Blvd. Having the fourth bedroom and the third full bath, being tucked away in the middle of the community with a yard void of mechanical and electrical devices obstructing your peaceful time outside, all make this the ideal home with the ideal location in the ideal community.This meticulously maintained Lovett home measures 2,715 square feet and is one of the prized end units in the community which offers a large entertaining patio and yard. The home has a first floor living area, formal dining room and kitchen that overlooks the large backyard/brick-paved patio. The master suite and two additional bedrooms are located on the second floor with a third floor bonus room that can double as a fourth bedroom, media room or game room that also includes a full bath. The gated enclave of homes in Devonshire Place is located in the heart of the Medical Center with easy access to Highway 288.
