Born from a lifelong appreciation of the value that good architecture can bring to one’s quality of life, the previous owner commissioned architect Irwin Stein, a protégée of Frank Lloyd Wright, to design a home specifically for this property. An interpretation of Wright’s Prairie style, the structure carries the telltale hallmarks including strong horizontal lines, ribbons of windows, and an open design featuring a dramatic fireplace as the visual focal point of the interior. Located on one of the widest sections of Clam Bayou, there are expansive water views for as far as the eye can see. The home’s large, covered deck and wall of windows are perfect for enjoying the end of each day as the fiery evening sky turns blue when the sun dips into the Gulf beyond a backdrop of deep green mangroves and the steely blue of the bayou just beyond your dock. Remodeled in 2024 to an exacting standard befitting a home of this caliber, notable features include Google smart home controls, a custom staircase, a chef’s kitchen with a Thermador suite of appliances and waterfall quartz counters, European cabinetry, a new boat dock, and a remodeled saltwater pool with a swim-up table, spill-over spa, and all-new equipment.
