This
new mid-rise property has a Venetian look and a resort feel, with tile
roofs and stucco walls. The main building encircles a large swimming
pool, complete with archways and waterfalls. The property also features
two stainless steel gas grills, a clubroom, conference room, cinema
room, 24-hour fitness center, cyber café, heated lap pool, Zen garden
and bacci ball court. The apartments are accessible by elevator, but
each apartment home can also be accessed from the covered parking garage,
which allows residents to park on their same floor level and avoid climbing
stairs. This property is in the heart of the Museum District, near Hermann
Park and many of Houston’s museums. The light rail, which provides
easy access to downtown Houston, is just walking distance from the property.
In addition, shuttle service is available to and from The Texas Medical
Center.
The apartments are bright and airy, with
arched doorways and 9-foot ceilings. They have tiled entries,
kitchens and bathrooms, with carpet elsewhere. The large picture
windows have two-inch faux wood blinds and look out over the pool. The
kitchens have faux granite countertops, with white cabinetry and white
appliances and plant ledges that add character. Many feature
computer niches with arched wall cutouts. Each apartment has
a full-sized washer and dryer in a utility closet. The bathrooms
have plenty of cabinet space as well and feature Roman-style soaking
tubs. The apartments have lots of closet space, between the giant
bedroom closets and the hall closets. Each apartment has a private patio
or balcony, many of which can be accessed from the bedrooms.
