3 More Shots To Live in a Glow-in-the-Dark Box near Hermann Park

Art Colony Phase 2, 5313 Chenevert St., Museum District, Houston, 77004

Like the looks of this light-display-slash-townhouse-trio at Prospect and Chenevert streets on the Almeda side of the Museum District? All 3 of the homes hit the market yesterday for between $925,000 and $975,000 (that’s 5313 Chenevert, 1805 Prospect, and 1807 Prospect, from left to right). Developer Dreamscape Modern posted the (rendered) view above to its website for Phase 2 of its The Art Colony townhouse development, which includes a see-through panel to catch shifting colored light projected onto the house after dark.

The light displays shown in the rendering and in the video above are a bit more intricate than the particular pattern shown in the new listing photos — though the illuminated driveway strips appear to be the same shade of aqua, amid the xeriscaping in place of the grass lawns originally depicted:

The view from Chenevert St. picks up most of its color from a few strategically deployed palm trees:

The 3-bedroom homes each include a ground-floor garage and a rooftop deck — here they are sans lighting during the day:

From top to bottom, here’s the corner unit on Chenevert:

The third floor includes a study, with a view toward the master bedroom and the elevated palm tree nook:

The master bedroom opens to an outdoor soaking tub:

That bite-shaped cutout from the front corner of each roof deck lets the sunshine in:

The wine cabinet by the stairwell is shown here stocked with what appears to be liters of gin:

A small gravel backyard strip is accessible from the first floor bedroom, which the listing says also contains a walk-in closet:

If you miss out on this set, no worries — there’s 4 more light-up homes in the works for Phase 3. Here’s the company’s rendering:
