view in google earthThe East Hill residence was built in 1949. Renovations to the house began in 2000 with a facade change from the typical red brick ranch style. The standard ranch style house is a long, low brick house rambling and sprawling over a large grassy yard. Changes were designed by the present owners, Tricia and Michael Mangrum. The view of Bayou Texar inspired the use of the front of the house as an open-air living space
