About This Home
This exceptional Boulevard Oaks residence is a stunning renovation that feels like new construction. Thoughtfully reimagined by Remodelers of Houston Design with architect Bill Shaw, the home underwent a complete transformation—taken to the studs beginning in summer 2015, with the renovation and large addition completed in fall 2016. Every detail was meticulously upgraded, including new plumbing and electrical, new windows, flooring, and high-end finishes throughout. Designed to meet the needs of today’s modern lifestyle, the home features four spacious ensuite bedrooms and a versatile pool room. The beautifully designed outdoor space with a pool, spa, and summer kitchen create a perfect setting for both everyday living and entertaining. A true standout in the Rice/Museum District and a past nominee for the GHBA Prism Award, this home offers exceptional quality, timeless style, and every amenity a buyer could desire.
