There’s a certain charm to the homes here in Houston Heights, and it’s all in the details.

Transforming a Beautiful but Incomplete Fire Pit When we arrived at this home in Beaumont, TX, we were greeted by a stunning stone fire pit structure sitting on the patio. At first glance, it seemed like the perfect feature to enhance the outdoor space. However, upon closer inspection, we discovered that the fire pit was far from functional.
