Masterful Craftsmanship Defines Extraordinary Texas Estate, Now on the Market for $8.8M
In the heart of Memorial, Houston’s most coveted corridor, stands an estate that transcends luxury living. Listed at $8,800,000, the residence at 11095 Memorial Dr spans 15,283 square feet on a meticulously landscaped 1.22-acre lot. Built in 2010 by Sorento Homes, it represents a timeless French Mediterranean vision that combines grand architectural detail with modern convenience.
The soaring travertine-clad foyer with a sweeping rotunda staircase sets the stage for interiors filled with natural light. Formal living and dining rooms are designed for elegant entertaining, while the two-story family room anchors the home with warmth and intimacy. The chef’s kitchen, complete with dual ovens, wine grotto, and a generous island, enhances both function and style.
“This is a property that strikes the perfect balance between grandeur and livability,” listing agent Susan Magee shared with Luxury Houses Magazine. “From the library finished in hand-scraped hickory to the rooftop lounge overlooking Houston, every corner was crafted with purpose.”
Interiors Crafted for Elegant Living
The estate includes eight bedrooms and eleven bathrooms, with the first-floor primary suite offering a private fireplace, boutique dressing rooms, and a spa-inspired bath. Upstairs, residents enjoy a library, theater, game rooms, and an exercise studio. An elevator provides seamless access across both levels.
Throughout the home, architectural details—travertine columns, carved stonework, and crown moldings—affirm its artisanal pedigree. Energy-efficient HVAC systems and ENERGY STAR certification highlight the estate’s thoughtful sustainability.
Co-listing agent Kellie Geitner noted in an interview with Luxury Houses: “Very few properties in Houston Real Estate offer this level of craftsmanship combined with cutting-edge technology. It is a rare find, even in the luxury market.”

Outdoor Amenities and Rooftop Luxury
The grounds echo the home’s architectural grace. A heated gunite pool sits amid manicured gardens, while a summer kitchen and covered terraces offer year-round entertaining opportunities. The crown jewel is a rooftop entertainment lounge with panoramic views—a feature rarely found in Texas Real Estate.
Guest quarters with a private entrance ensure privacy for extended stays, while the five-car garage with porte-cochere adds both functionality and prestige. The estate blends resort-style amenities with everyday convenience.
As Magee explained to Luxury Houses Magazine: “The rooftop lounge has been a favorite of every prospective buyer who tours the home. It’s truly a one-of-a-kind experience that elevates the lifestyle this residence promises.”
