I took a look at it. It has horrible foundation problems and the previous owner did absolutely no upkeep on this little gem. I saw water leak marks on the ceiling. And some of the windows needed replacing. The backyard totally rocks though, it really is like a hidden paradise back there.

Does anyone know who designed / built this home ?

In general, is the upkeep on these type of homes far more expensive or involved than a standard spec home ?

It was designed by Richard Keating, who was head of the Houston office of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. He also designed San Felipe Plaza.

Thank you for the information. Very beautiful home. I'm facinated by the many "gems" scattered around town.

  • The title was changed to Home By Skidmore, Owings & Merrill At 4949 Yoakum Blvd.
