Home of Television Personality & Fixture of Houston Political Scene Heads to Luxury Auction®

The Blairs have lived at the property for nearly fifteen years, and during that time have held countless social and political events there - some hosting hundreds of guests at a time. In fact, the estate has earned the nickname "Blair House" locally, a play on the owners' last name and the nickname given to the President's Guest House in Washington, DC.

Mrs. Blair, a former prosecutor who now focuses on legal consulting and transactional work, spent years appearing as an expert guest on television shows hosted on networks such as FOXNews, CNN, MSNBC, CourtTV, and others. She has elected to sell the home at auction after being frustrated with the traditional sales process. The Blairs have already purchased another home in the area.

"It's our pleasure to work with such a successful, high-energy professional who wants to channel that same type of energy for the sale of her home," noted Trayor Lesnock, Platinum's president and founder. "The Blairs understand the need to take meaningful action in order to produce extraordinary results, hence their attraction to 'take action' within their marketplace using our luxury auction process."

The main residence offers more than 12,000 sf of interiors and three living levels, with 5 bedrooms, 5 full and 4 half baths. A guesthouse and pool cabana combine to add another 900 sf of living space, 1 bedroom and 2 full baths. While the residence boasts elegant features such as a palatial foyer with dual staircases and a two-story grand salon, it also offers a very livable floor plan that has suited its owners well for both family functions and for entertaining in grand fashion. Prominent features include a two-story executive study with handsome wood finishes, elevator, gourmet kitchen, fitness center, home theater, and hidden wine room.

Outdoor living areas feature a poolside balcony and loggia, sprawling pool deck and a covered summer kitchen. The estate's oversized pool was designed by Robert E. Forsythe, and includes a spa and numerous water features. Throughout the five lushly landscaped acres, charming features such as gently winding walking paths, elegant fountains, wrought-iron gazebos, and an elevated trellis collectively create an "enchanted garden" atmosphere of privacy and serenity.

Beginning March 17^th, the property will be available for previews between the hours of 12 and 4pm (CST) daily, until the auction. Additional information is available at WoodlandsLuxuryAuction.com, or by calling Platinum's offices at 800.925.8231.
