Modern Mediterranean Elegance in Houston<\/a><\/h2>\n

Stately Mediterranean style pervades this 9,985-square-foot residence in Houston. Perfect for effortless day-to-day living and entertaining, it features a study, a formal dining room with a temperature-controlled wine room, a media and game room, a family room with 24-foot ceilings, a chef\u2019s kitchen with a butler\u2019s pantry, and six bedrooms, including two primary suites. The backyard is a lush oasis with a breezy loggia, a summer kitchen, multiple patios, fire pits, and an alluring heated pool and spa with a waterfall and whimsical colorful lighting.<\/p>\n

Redwood Valley Villa<\/a><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On 20 acres with valley and vineyard vistas and groves of olive trees, this light-filled Tuscan-inspired villa features a multi-level floor plan with three bedrooms and open, inviting living and entertaining spaces. A one-bedroom guest suite is tucked above the two-car garage. The enviable setting encourages outdoor living, and the home obliges with multiple alfresco spaces, including a stone terrace with a breathtaking view and a classical fountain.<\/p>\n

Just blocks from the beach in the Santa Monica Canyon, this secluded 4,706-square-foot four-bedroom masterwork is replete with Balinese architectural inspiration. Limestone walls, Indonesian coral, leather, terrazzo, and abundant use of richly hued teak contribute to its unique ambience. The rooftop deck is an enviable getaway, while a mature sycamore tree stands stalwart over the home, its glorious courtyard gardens, and a dazzling outdoor water feature.<\/p>\n
