The 1st ward is one of the city's historic wards. It was originally the center of the business district for the city, and was strategically located at the intersection of Buffalo Bayou and White Oak Bayou. SAFETY: 0 break-ins. House is very secure (locks on all the doors; iron driveway gate and 15' tall fences; 12' tall iron pedestrian gate). Directly across the street is a city vehicle maintenance facility where they repair ambulances, firetrucks, and police cars. Due to the police cars, the neighborhood is very safe. No break-ins or incidents to the house. The facility is also very quiet (not once have I heard a siren or work being done; nor can I see it from my house). Very safe neighborhood. People walk their dogs and jog around the neighborhood often and at night. NOISE: Home and neighbors are very quiet. The house was custom built by the CEO of a large real estate company here in Houston that specializes in mansions. He built the house with reinforced walls because his brother, the architect of the company, was also in a band and would practice out of the house next door. I never hear any noise (sirens, neighbors, music, cars, dogs, etc) from within the house. I also rarely hear anything when by the pool or driveway etc. Very quiet neighborhood with minimal traffic. TRAFFIC: Very little. The street dead ends. Very wide streets. Very safe to play on the street and not have to worry about cars. Loaded with all the amenities you could ever want to entertain any group – from family-friendly affairs to adults-only retreats. 2 custom built-in bars (one overlooking downtown Houston), 27 high-def surround sound speakers in the ceilings, 180” screen movie theatre, private heated pool with 12 person hot-tub, 4 balconies and 1 massive balcony with infrared BBQ grill with downtown views, and much more make this estate is truly a one-of-a-kind. • Giant private heated pool w/waterfall totally private that neighbors cannot see • 16 person hot-tub with jacuzzi jets and mood lighting • Ultra-private estate centrally located in a quiet & safe neighborhood minutes away from some of Houston’s best nightlife, upscale shopping, and delicious restaurants • 180" screen space blu-ray & 4k Ultra HD 3-D quality projector ceiling mounted with Netflix + Amazon Prime TV included for free • 2 built-in custom bars overlook downtown of white marble and Texas oak • Basketball goal in driveway • 4 balconies w/ breathtaking up close views of downtown Houston and BBQ grill • 4 Burner Infrared Gas Saber BBQ Grill situated on main balcony overlooking downtown Houston • 4 AC’s + fans in the rooms to keep you icy cool in the hot Texas heat • Giant chef’s kitchen good for cooking or serving with private chef • Fully and elegantly decorated with sophisticated eclectic modern accents, several unique art pieces from all over the world including: 12ft ornate chandelier, professional gallery grade framed photographs, a 10ft 4-D flower art piece, many statues, and hand painted art • Great for large groups, families, and business travelers. • Family-friendly with highchair, pack-n-play, and games • All the amenities you can think of, and even the ones you forget to ask about • Easy flexible self-check-in with keycodes sent the day of check-in • In-unit washer/dryer • Games / entertainment galore: pool table, poker, apples 2 apples, cards against humanity, pool toys, and more • HP Monogram stainless steel sub-zero fridge • Dedicated workspace office with 3 27” curved monitors and 2 other workspace desks • Built in ceiling speakers (27 total) controlled via your phone or blue tooth device • Master bath jacuzzi jet tub overlooks downtown Indulge in the massive resort backyard with tons of space and seating areas as you enjoy the many games, relaxed seating, sun-tan loungers, and never need to leave your personal resort.
