Sorry, what does that mean? That someone is in the process of purchasing it? Hope they appreciate it. Despite that, the photos are worth a look.

Scrolling through HAR listings, I saw this great, almost untouched mod in Maplewood/Westbury. The dining room has an "oriental"-themed 1950s mural, cool asian-esque screen things, and scalloped, gilded facades over the windows (Sorry, I don't know how to describe these things or what they are really called). The kitchen light fixtures with stenciled stars are truly fab. And though the stove may be a pre-1950s model, in my experience they work really well. I'd love for something like this to show up in the inner-loop, but surely somebody doesn't mind the semi-burbs! And it's cheap! $199 thou! It'd be a shame to let someone granite counter this one up. http://search.har.com/engine/dispSearch.cf...mp;backButton=Y 5626 Portal, 77096

That was fun! I just moved to Houston from the San Francisco Bay area. I've been lurking on this site for months now. The trip to Glenbrook Valley was a thrill. The houses were really amazing and it was great to see the wide variety of possibilities in a mod neighborhood. Of course, the showstopper was the redone mod. It was just impeccable. My favorite rooms I have to say were the bathrooms. the tile and fixtures were pristine. And the kitchen mixed some new and some old perfectly for great aesthetic and funtionality. While I didn't see anyone with peach mimosas, I was welcomed by many of the GV neighborhood association in many of these houses. Thanks for the ride folks! Hope to do it again soon.
