A piece of cake

This home is a beautiful, creamy white layer cake - the kind that could be a wedding cake.  As you slice in, fluffy bits of white cake and cream cheese icing come cascading out onto your plate.  I've only included pictures of the common areas as the bedrooms were pretty bare bones (I imagine this house has been staged).  But even with the scant furniture, you can still appreciate the lovely dark floors, ceiling to floor windows and flow of the living room, family room, kitchen and dining room.  This house was originally built in the 1930s and has been beautifully renovated.  I particularly like the open concept kitchen to the family room as well as the dining room.  It's separated just enough from both areas to have a proper division of space but not so much that it would be impossible to entertain large parties.

And as always, the pool in the backyard is a nice touch for those hot Texas summers.

  9. What a dream. When I was a kid, my mom would take me to open houses and we'd imagine living there. Now there's internet and I can virtually keep pretending :)

  12. It's much brighter inside than I expected.

    I have mixed feelings about pools...memories of the fun versus the work of being the pool boy.

  13. That is one thing I miss most about Texas - swimming pools everywhere! They barely exist in Oregon, and if they do, they're above ground. So lame!! :)
