PRIME PROPERTY
A detailed look at one of the area’s most distinctive homes.
This home, located at 3787 Purdue St., is on an oversized lot tucked in the pocket neighborhood of Sunset Terrace, in the
West University area. Architecturally designed for entertaining or everyday living, its workmanship, quality finishes, and location on a tree-lined street, all add to this home’s appeal. Offering proximity to Texas Medical Center, downtown, the Galleria, Loop 610 and U.S. 59, this home is also zoned to West University Elementary School.
Inside, the 5,169-squarefoot home’s foyer greets visitors with high ceilings and 6-inch American black walnut hardwood floors and leads to the elevator (installed in February 2020), library/study with fireplace, lighted bar, and doors opening to a private courtyard.
Outdoors, the New Orleans-style courtyard off the foyer offers views from the library/study, and the formal dining and family rooms, allowing an abundance of natural light. A large family room opens to the kitchen, breakfast room and a covered patio with a summer kitchen and fireplace for outdoor living.
The butler’s pantry off the formal dining room leads to the kitchen for easy entertaining. The kitchen is also well-appointed, with a Wolf fourburner gas cooktop plus griddle, Sub-Zero built-in refrigerator and double oven. A walk-in wet bar opens to the family room, breakfast area and kitchen and includes a 46-bottle wine cooler, 32-bottle upper-cabinet storage, and a hammered-copper sink.
The home’s backyard offers mature lush landscaping, an oak tree, pool and spa, and professionally lighted grounds.
The master bedroom offers hardwood floors, plantation shutters, a high tray ceiling, plus a sitting area with coffee bar, builtins and a fireplace.
The game room and three guest bedrooms with en-suite baths are located on the second floor.
Priced at $1,895,000, the four-bedroom, 4½bath home is listed by
