Yes, we know, it's been a while — a long time, really — since Houstonist brought you the last installment of shelterporn, in which we indulge our fascination with both architecture and places we don't live. But, see, we've been busy doing what we do in our spare moments: driving the curving streets of River Oaks, pretending we live in the lap of luxury. "Yes," we tell passers-by as we stand very near the lawn of a sprawling River Oaks manse, "this is our little cottage. It's not much, but after all, we only have a staff of eight." (That's about as far as we usually get before the River Oaks Patrol shows up and kicks escorts us out of the neighborhood.)
