One would hardly imagine how much a 14-year-old home could immensely benefit from an interior remodel. But when the owners of 4048 Overbrook Lane tapped Marie Flanigan Interiors to the task in 2021, the result was a stunning Houston mansion that beautifully blends modern luxury with classic charm. This jewel is on the market, now listed for $3,695,000.

While the house is so much more than location, location, location, you simply can’t beat the Oak Estates for primo placement.

The 6,400-square-foot home is conveniently poised between Highland Village and posh River Oaks. The convenience of the corner lot in this ideal location stands out as a selling point. Central Market, a drug store, quaint restaurants, Sprinkles Cupcakes and top tier stores such as RH Houston are within walking distance. So is River Oaks Baptist School.

The Oaks Estates mansion itself is a serene oasis where Flanigan has employed luxe finishes and high-end decorative detailing that have lifted what might have been a nice place into an exemplary residence. Even from the library to the wet bar and the formal half-bath, the design and decorative elements speak to a certain quiet elegance.

In addition to several airy living areas, the third floor flex space is a bonus just right for housing exercise equipment or children’s playthings. Or perhaps turning into a studio for arts and crafts.

The home boasts five bedrooms each with its own bath plus two half baths. The must haves — a gourmet kitchen, a summer kitchen, in-ground heated swimming pool, two fireplaces and a generator. All are in place. And in a house of this size, it’s no surprise that there are two staircases, one in the foyer and another in the back.

The house first went on the Houston real estate market in late July with a list price of $3,995,000 but has recently been reduced to $3,695,000.
