Property Description
Prominently positioned along Kirby Drive in River Oaks, this distinguished Tudor Revival residence was originally built by Katharine Mott, Houston's first female homebuilder, and received the Houston Good Brick Award. Thoughtfully renovated by Gunn Construction with interiors by Christopher Alexander and Randy Powers, the home blends historic character with refined modern livability. Antique Chateau Domingue tile floors and a custom Paul Ferrante chandelier introduce gracious living spaces featuring Stark carpeting and seagrass, Jasper and Schumacher textiles, and lighting by Dennis & Leen and Holly Hunt. The kitchen is anchored by striking Calacatta Viola stone, Thermador appliances, and tailored Hartmann & Forbes shades. Private quarters feature layered wall coverings from Hermès, Élitis, and KFI, while the primary bath showcases Walker Zanger stone and Visual Comfort lighting. A rare basement-level and garage apartment adds living space. Whole-house generator.
