Amazing townhome - winner of 1991 American Institute of Architects Honor Award in 1991! With a nod to New Orleans, the entry to the home is in the courtyard, accessed through a gated passageway or through the garage. Home is exceptionally well-maintained, is zoned to great schools, and is within walking distance of Poe Elementary, Rice Village and Rice University.
The courtyard is a hidden gem, peaceful, shaded and private with lush landscaping and mature trees. Straight ahead and to the left are the two entryways - double glass doors to the downstairs bedroom suite and a single glass door into the first floor foyer. Straight ahead is the passageway that brings you from the front to the back.
Very rare for a townhouse in the middle of the city to have such a large outdoor space - such a treat.
The beautiful courtyard as seen from a different angle. This unique and thoughtfully-designed home has versatile living spaces indoors and out.
Covered entryway leads to first floor bedroom and bath, as well as to stairway leading to main living spaces.
