4614 Laurel in Bellaire Texas is a large home exquisitely appointe
d and loaded with all the “extras” buyers want to have in their new home. What kind of extras?
Formals, extensive use of millwork and moldings, specialized lighting, and abundant storage areas highlight this property; premium finishes throughout the property include granite, marble and two glittering Schonbeck® crystal chandeliers.
The 2-story Foyer and Reception Hall is open to the Formal Living Room on one side, and the Formal Dining Room on the other and recessed between them is the semi-circular granite bar with service to three sides --- ideal for hosting guests. The adjacent Powder Room and Study provide perfect flow for entertaining. Let’s open up the SMARTePLAN and take a closer look at this layout. (Use the zoom features to enlarge the plan so you can study every detail).
Notice also in the SMARTePLAN the recessed alcove next to the Dining Room with built-in marble buffet server and upper level lighted and glass-faced display cabinets – how very convenient. 
As you can see the Formal Dining Room is luxuriously appointed and has one of two Schonbeck® crystal chandeliers.
Not only is this a home for entertaining guests, but it is a large home with perfectly proportioned space for “family” living. As you can see in the SMARTePLAN, the Family Room, Breakfast Room and Kitchen are each distinct areas with their own features, but are also open and accessible to each other.
The Family Room has a double fireplace (shared with the Living Room) with a 55” Samsung® flat panel TV and speakers mounted over the mantel --- and a wall of built-ins that also includes an aquarium. The semi-circular Breakfast Room has a wall of windows overlooking the pool and terrace area; and the Kitchen is spectacular with modern stainless appliances, slab granite counters and slab granite backsplash.
To really appreciate the attributes of each room, use the Amenities Text with its detailed room-by-room description of features and finishes as a guidebook to tour the property. Clicking on any arrowhead in the floor plan launches the photo and the description for that room is below the photo .. but its all linked together so you can’t get lost.
As an example, you might not notice in the drawing there is a lift-up/lock-in-place work surface right next to the gas range, but it is clearly detailed in the Amenities Text. These two documents work together … one with pictographs, one with text … to fully showcase to buyers the features in each and every room.
The Master Suite is private and secluded and will especially appeal to those who seek a “master down”. The Master Bedroom has a private glass door to the rear terrace, as well as a bay window alcove overlooking the pool and pool terrace. The Master Bath is expansive and features an air-jetted tub and steam shower as well as two large walk-in master closets configured with Programme Martin® custom organizational/storage components. The Amenities Text details the size of the closets, as well as a description of the customization to wrest every square inch of usable storage space easily and conveniently…. Take a look.
“Customization for ease and efficiency” could be the tagline for this property. Many, many extra features have been put into this property that you won’t find elsewhere. Like what?
· Well… like… the garage with walls totally configured with the GarageTek® organizational system, as well as the skid-resistant, stain resistant rubberized flooring and an air compressor outlet.
· Or how about the oversized and air-conditioned Hobby Room/ Work shop (20’x 7’) lined with tall cabinet storage and corner desk with two work stations, wall-mounted pegboard and air compressor outlet?
· Or the Office/Media Room (11’ 10” x 15’ 2’) lined with storage cabinets, file drawers and office work space for two?
· Or the gift-wrapping station with a flat work surface and wall-mounted dowels to store and dispense rolls of ribbon and gift wrap paper?
· Or the Game Room (14’ x 19’ 8”) with built-in cabinetry to house the TV, and outdoor covered balcony with Trex® deck overlooking the pool; and an adjacent Snack Room (18’ 10” x 13’ 3) with stainless sink set into granite counter and SubZero® beverage refrigerator?
This is an amazing property, take the time to use the Amenities Text and SMARTePLAN to tour this property online.
And the outdoor space is just as exciting as the inside.
· Extensive professional landscaping, tall privacy fencing, automatic sprinkler system, mosquito control system and landscape lighting is installed.
· A large covered porch with outdoor speakers, ceiling fans and Trex® deck has steps that descend to pool level with a variable depth heated saltwater pool, attached spa and also a bubbling fountain.
· The Summer Kitchen includes Bull® stainless grill, stainless steel lockers and built-in ice chest with drain.
With Houston’s mild climate --- outdoor space is as important as indoor space and there is plenty to like with this house… you will not be disappointed.

=================================================================
SMARTePLANS® have photos embedded inside the floor plan that launch with a mouse click .... each photo arrow is positioned in the plan where the photographer was standing --- so you can see where he was and what he was aiming at when he took the shot ... in relationship to the drawing. Beneath the photo is a description of that room. Once the photo launches you have a choice to link back to the floor plan and choose another photo, or read the amenities text for the WHOLE property (not just that particular room). All the files are inter-linked so you can seamlessly click around this property, viewing the photos and reading the descriptions. This is not a video ... you choose what you want to view ... or not[NOTE: SMARTePLANS® are PDF files so they magnify to over 6400%. When the file launches, you can zoom by using the tool bar. Every time you tap the plus key inside the circle the view screen enlarges (the minus key shrinks the magnification) Using the scroll bars on the bottom and the side, its easy to move around inside the file, and then magnifying the features you want to see.]
