Beneath a canopy of mature trees lies The Heights Compound—a rare opportunity that may never be replicated in the Houston Heights. Spanning 8 contiguous lots behind 4 motorized gates, this unique estate evokes the timeless architecture of a historic Heights home, yet was built in the late ’90s and lies outside a designated historic district. Distinctive details include antique wood floors, stained-glass accent windows, elegant millwork and a private porch from every bedroom. The 2,217 SF pool house offers 2 BD/4 BATH, including 2 exterior country-club-style full baths, plus an arched window, elevator, full kitchen and billiard/game spaces. 1 BD/1 BATH guest quarters over the garage add flexibility. Resort grounds offer a pool, outdoor tiki-style grill/bar, putting green and lighted sport court with pickleball potential. On-site guest parking, circle drive and 5-car covered pavilion complete the estate. Preserve it for generations or explore subdivision potential. Life Behind the Gates.

Spectacular custom contemporary designed by Taft Architects. The home is a splayed plan that follows the divergent geometry of the site's side lot lines. A long bar parallels the south property line; a more compact block is aligned with the north property line, resulting in an L-plan oriented to the north-facing backyard. The house is closed on its street front, where the two wings frame a recessed entrance court beneath a fractured gable formed by each wing's shed roof. The spatial surprise is the extraordinary backyard, which slopes down to a branch of the White Oak bayou. A north-facing, aluminum glass curtain wall opens the interiors to this secret garden, as do broad covered terraces. The house's expansive, loft-like interior is simply finished with slate floors and maple cabinetwork. Steel framing and roof. There is also an interior greenhouse, heated pool, huge workshop, craft room, elevator, backup generator, and much more.
