Tour through delightfully decorated bedrooms, reading nooks, and living spaces of the Southern Living Beyond the Storm Showcase Home in Braes Heights during its final public showing on Saturday, September 29 & Sunday, September 30, 2018.
In partnership with the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation, the Stone Acorn Builders’ Southern Living Beyond the Storm Showcase Home invites Houstonians to tour a charismatic abode that features subtle and appealing design flourishes from the minds of local and regional interior designers.
More than a year after Hurricane Harvey wrought havoc into the Braes Heights neighborhood, the former site of a storm-damaged bungalow has found new life as a Southern Living Showcase Home, designed and built by Stone Acorn Builders.
Touring the Home
The Southern Living Showcase Home, a modern farmhouse-style design totaling 6,076-square-foot, features an expansive layout with five bedrooms, five bathrooms, media room, game room, and a fabulous gourmet kitchen anchoring the dining room and breakfast area.
The captivating interior design throughout the home is managed by Lindsey Herod Interiors and Meg Lonergan Interiors, members of the Southern Living Designer Network.
The showcase home also includes a large family library and multiple reading nooks throughout—a major feature by the brother-and-sister team of Stone Acorn Builders’ Sarah Lavine-Kass and Benjamin Lavine.
Special Activities & Demonstrations
Each day at 1pm and 3pm, featured guests will host special planned activities including chef, floral, gardening, wine tasting, and interior design demonstrations.
Pop-up story times also provide a chance for listening to tales throughout the house.
Guests include Jose Arevalo from Brennan’s of Houston, Carl Murray of Nobu, Mister McKinney of Mister McKinney’s Historic Houston, and Ginny Endecott.

Supporting the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation
In promotion of National Literacy Awareness Month, the Barbara Bush Houston Literacy Foundation has partnered with Stone Acorn Builders on the Southern Living Showcase Home, featuring many of the First Lady’s favorite reads throughout the multiple living spaces.
In addition, proceeds from tour admissions go toward the Foundation’s mission to improve the quality of life for Houstonians of all ages through the power of literacy.
