4610 Alba
This home is a classic mid-century modern with a low- slung roof line and a bold entryway. It’s great to see a flawlessly remodeled mid-century, and this is one of those homes that the more you look at it, the better it gets.
The owners brought it up to today’s lifestyle and standards and took the time to do everything right. They opened the floor plan, totally redesigned the kitchen and master bath, installed hand-crafted patio and garage doors, solid bamboo floors, and added an additional 480 square feet of air-conditioned office+studio space that’s not on the tax rolls.
The kitchen was completely redesigned: custom-built cabinets, quartz countertops, and high-end appliances. New Pex plumbing system replaced the old galvanized plumbing. The property is beautifully landscaped with sprinkler and drainage systems. Even a half bath off the garage for wet pool feet.
914 Isolde
This is a classic, mid-century modern William Floyd designed home, one of many classic mid-century homes that flooded when the Corps of Engineers released water into Buffalo Bayou to avoid catastrophic reservoir failure during Hurricane Harvey. Memorial Bend had never flooded prior to that.
The home was in the Book: Atomic Ranch: Design Ideas For Stylish Ranch Homes, and we were able to have it designated as a mid-century ‘Mod of the Month’ by Houston Mod, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting appreciation of the cultural legacy of mid-century modern architecture.
We found a buyer who would preserve and renovate the home, which began after the closing. It is a tribute to the prior owners, who turned down offers from builders who wanted to tear the home down, and to the new owners who loved and restored it.
423 Isolde
This is one of the best mid-century modern homes in Memorial Bend. This unique, open plan contemporary was designed and built by architect William Floyd in 1959. Floyd constructed about 50 of the homes in Memorial Bend, so it had a larger number of mid-century modern homes than most subdivisions.
The living/dining area with hardwoods was divided by a wood-burning fireplace. The family room, kitchen and 2 bedrooms look out on a patio and pool, in an oversized lot. Memorial Bend is a neighborhood now in a period of flux as many of these architectually significant homes are torn down and replaced by larger 2 story homes.
The ‘Bend’ is across from City Centre and Town and Country shopping and restaurants, walking distance to Terry Hershey and the Audubon Nature Sanctuary Parks, and in the sought after SBISD Rummel Creek/Memorial Middle School/Memorial High school district.
9325 Lugary
This is a spacious mid-century modern home built in 1966 in Bonham Acres, near Brays Bayou and Braeburn Country Club.
The home was designed with an open floor plan, featuring walls of windows opening to the back yard and overlooking a covered 19′ x 10′ patio. The house has Terrazzo, Marble and hardwood floors throughout, and kitchen and baths updated with designer finishes. For a home built 50 years ago, it has larger than normal walk-in closets, and plenty of additional storage.
The living room features a huge wall-to-wall fireplace and high vaulted ceiling. Beyond the covered patio is a 3 car garage, and the property is fenced with an electric auto driveway gate, with a beautiful wooded and landscaped lot with privacy from any neighbors. And lt’s only minutes to the Braeswood hike/bike trails.
10703 Burgoyne
This impeccable mid-century modern home, built in 1964 in Walnut Bend, was renovated from top to bottom. Finishes throughout the home are classic, modern, and in keeping with mid-century modern traditions.
Floor to ceiling windows, hardwoods, cork flooring, marble, subway tile, farmhouse sink, vintage/custom lighting. Completely remodeled kitchen and baths. New roof, double-paned windows and plumbing.
THis is a large lot with huge trees, and the patio with pergola outside the living area make it a backyard oasis.
