If you enjoy entertaining in a spacious home, you’ll want to take a look at this 2,655-sq.-ft. residence. This 3-bedroom, 2-and-a-half-bathroom property has an open floor plan, tile floors, and plenty of natural light streaming through windows and illuminating the home’s clean lines.

The entry foyer has a 14-ft. ceiling; the living room features a stone-faced fireplace flanked by built-in shelving suitable for a sizable entertainment center.

The kitchen includes granite countertops, an island breakfast area, a gas range stove, and plenty of cabinets for storage. French doors off the foyer lead to the study, which comes with built-in storage and triple windows affording front-yard views.

That patio deck, lined with an iron railing, stretches along the entire back of the house. The listing includes renderings showing how a pool could fit in the back yard of the 10,010-sq.-ft. lot.

Today’s sponsor: ASCOT, also known as the Alcohol Servers Counsel of Texas. Thanks for supporting Swamplot!

If you work in a restaurant, or in any kind of food-service or food-prep operation, you’re probably already familiar with state requirements for training in food-handling safety. And if you work in a bar or for an alcohol distributor, you probably already know why it’s so important that everyone who has anything to do with selling, dispensing, or delivering any kind of alcoholic beverage complete state-certified training in alcohol safety.

Since 1988, ASCOT has been licensed by the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission to provide TABC-certified alcohol-server training programs. That makes ASCOT one of the oldest and most established food and beverage certification programs in the country — as well as Texas’s longest-running provider of training in this important field. And ASCOT has been a preferred source for training in food handling in Houston since 2004.

If you’re responsible for making sure new employees are trained promptly and well in these particular areas, you can be sure they’re getting the exact program they need — in the most helpful format possible — by sending them to ASCOT. ASCOT offers its training courses both in a classroom setting and online, in both English and Spanish.

Use the discount code ASCOT on the alcoholservers.com website and the online alcohol-server training course works out to just $9.89 per class. The food-handling class costs just $7.00 — no discount code is needed.

ASCOT’s server-training program is certified by the TABC, and its food-handler program is ANSI Accredited as meeting the ASTM E2659-09 standard. For more details, or to sign up, head over to the ASCOT website — alcoholservers.com — or call 713.922.1223.
