BenH Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 http://www.har.com/HomeValue/dispSoldDetai...m?MLNUM=6558146 Wild house. One of Vale's more custom designs. Quote
nativehou Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 This was for sale several months -- maybe a year -- ago. I assumed it sold, but the photos are the same so probably they're just trying again. Quote
Willowisp Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 I may be thinking of the wrong people, but I'm pretty sure the new owners of this house had contacted Houston Mod and were planning on inviting us over to see it once they had it fixed up. Maybe they changed their mind. I'll have to search old emails to figure it out.JasonThis was for sale several months -- maybe a year -- ago.

BenH Posted January 18, 2008 Author Posted January 18, 2008 It's not for sale. I'm just reposting the old listings because I didn't get to see the photos at full resolution and figured others might want the same. Quote

sevfiv Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 The details of that home are great.Looks like it sold 03/07 - it's nice that HAR keeps up older listings. I am acquiring a nice set of archived pages that make nice references once the homes are torn down. Quote
BenH Posted January 18, 2008 Author Posted January 18, 2008 This house is currently being restored. I drove by yesterday and it already looks more lively and rich. The exterior walls used to have mildew on them, but it looks like that's been remedied. The new owners are also putting in some landscaping, which a definite improvement over the way the house has been. This house was built by Vale for a family named Hayes, and has many interesting custom touches, as you can see from the photos. Mr. Vale never told me the story on it, so I can't really provide much more information. Quote
Willowisp Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 In that case, I need to find the email and let them know we're ready when they are... It's really nice to see these not get destroyed once in awhile.Jason Quote
Jersey01 Posted January 19, 2008 Posted January 19, 2008 Anyone know what was done with the furniture? I surprisingly love the Milo Baughman dining chairs...not my typical taste. Quote
BenH Posted May 8, 2013 Author Posted May 8, 2013 Received word today that this house is on the chopping block. It was restored by an architect a few years ago and as of last weekend was in beautiful shape.
