Comments: | | Billed as the "Black and Gold Contemporary", this house was built as a model home and originally sat on a 1/2 acre lot adjacent to the greenbelt
near Westbelt Drive. |
Architectural Comments: | | This house seems to be a mix of styles. The front of the includes an asymettrical
facade with a partially recessed front wall to the left of the peak of the roof. A flat roofed garage is adjacent to the a
house. While at first glance one might think the garage was an addition, it appears in early advertising photographs. Unlike most of the
houses in Memorial Bend which feature oak floors, this house was advertised as being fully carpeted. |
