Made In The Shady

One of the most expensive homes to hit the market in all of Texas this year is a historic property in Shadyside. Originally constructed in 1926, the newly renovated 1 Longfellow Lane is now nearly 10,000 square feet, and is situated on just over two pristine acres smack in between Hermann Park and Rice. There’s beautifully landscaped grounds with a pool and tennis courts, and a three-car carriage house with apartments both above and below. Architectural details like arched windows and decorative ceilings have been painstakingly restored, while some rooms — like the primary bath and the colorful conservatory, at right — have been fully modernized.
