2121 Kirby Dr., #33
A unit in River Oaks’ most storied high-rise, The Huntingdon, hits number 10 on HAR’s list of the priciest new home listings in the Lone Star State. It’s on the 33rd floor of the elite tower, with a price tag of $10.5 million. With an Italianate sensibility, the 12,000-foot condo is rife with what the listing calls “completely custom” accents of wood, iron, glass, stone and “single-quarry-sourced book-matched marble.” The listing goes on to reference other amenities and luxuries including faux Venetian plaster, gild work, trompe l’oeil ceilings, multiple foyers and a Renaissance-style grand salon.
