4224 Armstrong Parkway Highland Park, Texas 75205
“I LIKE SPECIAL DETAILS.”
It shows. This rare treasure in the heart of Highland Park on prestigious Armstrong Parkway reflects the uncompromising attention to detail paid by owner, designer and renovator Torie Steele. Under her unwavering design direction, this masterpiece was taken from aging grand dame to modern marvel, and nearly doubled in size. Old world artistry and craftsmanship touches every room and perfectly embodies the essence of original architect Hal Thomson’s vision in 1928. But that’s where the “old” ends. Leaving literally no stone unturned, the home was taken down to its bones—from studs, to joists, to base brick walls—and rebuilt with the technology, functionality and finish of today.
New radiant heating lays beneath carefully dismantled and replaced floorboards. Crestron control system and all new electric, plumbing and mechanical are hidden behind authentic Venetian plaster walls and moulding. Custom-designed Italian and Portuguese tiles, adorn floors, walls and baths. Carefully replicated hardware accents detailed original woodwork throughout reimagined entry and living spaces while meticulously designed fixtures from England, France and Italy grace abundant custom cabinetry in every space.
When Ms. Steele says “you simply have to experience it” she means it.
The home feels like a beautifully preserved work of art and lives like a modern dream. The special attention to natural light from basement to upper floors. The flow from room to gracious room—all carefully addressed. The result of three years of meticulous planning and renovation reveals a larger experience of old world elegance that gives way to delight in the tiniest details.
