Grand Estate Home
Featured on Bravo TV’s “Property Envy, Episode 11, Aired September 3, 2013
This expansive home in a Southern city was built from the ground up with modern conveniences and energy efficiency. Constructed of rough-faced ashlar with limestone details and reclaimed “old wood” sinker cypress it is stately, beautiful and artfully rendered with old-world craftsmanship seldom seen in these modern times. Reminiscent of great country estates from centuries earlier, rich landscaping and formal gardens showcase this property, that sits like a jewel in its setting. Within this magnificent home, generously proportioned rooms are superbly appointed. Come explore inside this treasured space.

Residential Home in Memorial w/Courtyard Garden & Pool
This home featured a relatively small footprint for the Memorial Area, but was BIG in “livable” space and style. One of the outstanding features was the walled garden courtyard with pool, mature trees and tropical landscaping. Opening onto the pool area was an expansive covered porch with corner fireplace, ceiling fans and tiled summer kitchen. With Houston’s mild climate, outdoor space is as important as indoor when choosing a home. This is a good example of how a “covered porch” is really an “outdoor living room” that will likely be used year ’round.

Large Executive Home in Memorial
Large family home on a corner lot in Memorial with a park-like setting and lush landscaping. Tall ceilings throughout accommodate tall windows with an abundance of natural light flowing into the rooms. Premium finishes, desirable features and quality craftsmanship throughout. The thoughtful layout of the home was designed for both practical family living as well as gracious entertaining with formals and an executive paneled Library. The secluded and private Master Suite is set apart, yet has direct access to the pool and spa through glass french doors. Fantastic home! (Kim sold it in 7 days.)

Residential Home in Bellaire
This large home was exquisitely appointed and loaded with all the extras buyers want in their new home. What kind of extras? Formals, extensive use of millwork and moldings, specialized art lighting and abundant storage areas highlight this residence; premium finishes throughout the property include granite, marble and two glittering Schonbeck® chandeliers. The outside was equally amazing with pool, spa, summer kitchen, extensive landscaping and mosquito control system. For the record, this IS the MOST AMAZING garage I’ve seen so far … totally configured with the GarageTek® organizational system on the walls as well as skid-resistant, stain-resistant flooring and an air compressor outlet! Take a look around inside and read the Amenities Text to see one of the most “feature-rich” properties I’ve seen in awhile. No big surprise this one sold in 11 days.

Luxury Residence is Masterpiece of Art
This home sits on an unusually shaped lot, yet every square inch of this 3 story 5 bedroom residence is thoughtfully designed and integrated with its surroundings. Located near Houston’s Museum of Fine Arts, the indoor and outdoor space is just fabulous! You need to review the SMARTePLAN with photos embedded inside, just to SEE the amazing interior spaces created by Christopher Robertson. My favorite is the second floor gallery mezzanine with mahogany curvilinear walls and ceiling that overlook the living room below … but that is just one of MANY areas that just take your breath away — not to mention the unbelievably spectacular views from the rooftop terrace. Listed for double-digit millions, it sold in 15 days WITHOUT BEING ON MLS, and with SMARTePLANS as the sole source of marketing materials.

14 Acre Texas Horse Farm
Usually the words “horse farm” and “floor plan” don’t go together … but it sure works for SMARTePLANS. This beautiful 14+ acre horse farm in Texas is located in one of Houston’s gated equestrian communities. The property includes an Equestrian Center with 8-stall barn, covered and lighted training pen, lighted hydraulic horse exerciser, and outdoor riding arena with stadium lighting. Home with 3 bedrooms, 2-1/2 baths; 7 cross-fenced pastures, mature oak trees and a fully stocked 1.5 acre lake with fishing dock. Perfect place for an executive wanting a safe place for kids and horses and wanting to live on a “gentleman’s ranch”, with a very easy commute into downtown. Open the SMARTePLAN and take a look around. Marketing ranches and homes with acreage may present a problem to some, but not to SMARTePLANS — we show the WHOLE PROPERTY.

Arrange Furniture Inside High Rise Condo (English)
and/or 楼层平面图 View Chinese Language Floor Plan Linked to Room-by-Room Amenities Text
An English Version and Simplified Chinese Version of the same high rise condo can be seen here. SMARTePLANS can be depicted in multiple languages. Once a SMARTePLAN is created, the very useful furniture moving module can also be plugged in … you can demo it below.
SMARTePLANS works exceptionally well for high rise properties because it showcases the space and also has a unique furniture-moving floor plan tool that uploads right onto our MLS as part of the property description. Potential buyers can select furniture pieces off a menu, size them to fit their needs, and then slide them around inside the condo’s floor plan — arranging furniture and doing “what ifs”. This tool is particularly helpful to baby-boomers downsizing from large family homes into condos, as it helps them see what will “fit” — and what is best given away. Tour this high rise property in Houston and also do some furniture moving*!

{* Furniture-moving files are FLASH files and some browsers /devices do not handle
them as well as others. If you find the furniture “sticks” and does not glide … switching
to a different browser will likely improve this for you. }
See Views From Luxury High Rise Penthouse
A SMARTePLAN shows off both the interior and exterior space of high rise condos. Exterior space of a condo ….like a terrace? Yes, this penthouse has a nice terrace (most penthouses, do), but the exterior space on a condo that a SMARTePLAN can really showcase — IS THE VIEWS! High Rise residents covet their views and it is certainly one of the factors they use to evaluate a property on the market — so why not SHOW THE VIEWS? We can .. and we do. This 2-story luxury penthouse in Houston has spectacular skyline views of BOTH The Galleria and Downtown — and the SMARTePLAN shows them to you! The interiors aren’t too shabby, either …. as this property was featured in “Architectural Digest”. Tour this high rise penthouse property and see how SMARTePLANS markets luxury penthouses in Houston.

Golf Course Home in The Woodlands, Texas
Custom built for a former NBA star, this home is a masterpiece of architecture providing both grand entertaining space, casual entertaining space and gracious easy-living space. One of my favorite homes (ever) it includes luxury features and finishes throughout the property, as well as thoughtful design and elegant decor. Spectacular views of the Jack Nicklaus Golf Course, expansive outdoor space, negative edge pool and spa with poolside Guest Casita and a built-in basketball court with enclosure and stadium lighting. Unbelievably luxurious secluded Master Suite. Quarters over Garage. Take your time and explore every detail … what an amazing luxury residence.

42′ Sailing Yacht
Luxury properties for sale are not confined to structures. This SMARTePLAN of a 42′ luxury sailing yacht demonstrates that SMARTePLANS can also be used quite effectively by yacht brokers as well. The primary method of selling previously owned vessels is mooring them at close-in marina slips and hoping for a high level of foot traffic past them — or posting random photos online. Like its success in luxury real estate, a SMARTePLAN of the vessel can greatly improve the number of interested buyers, by significantly expanding the reach of your marketing.
