About this home

Behind private gates in an exclusive enclave near Rice University, Medical Center, and Museum District, sits 20 Sunset, a rare architectural jewel reimagined through thoughtful renovations since 1942. A dramatic two-story foyer reveals quiet grandeur with soaring ceilings, exquisite millwork, walnut herringbone hardwoods, and a sweeping staircase with crystal balusters! The formal living room offers an antique marble mantel, while gallery-quality lighting creates a collector’s sanctuary. The dining room flows effortlessly beyond for elegant entertaining. A sunroom with walls of glass overlooks manicured grounds and a resort-style pool. The home offers a show kitchen + a commercial-grade scullery, ideal for catered events or intimate chef-driven evenings. Multiple living areas, a study, and secondary suites provide flexibility. The private primary retreat features dual baths, dressing areas, 3 closets + a balcony. Lush grounds, pool w/pool house, complete this timeless estate. ELEVATOR!
