This house was built in
1907. The current owners bought it from Floyd Domino, a piano player
for George Strait, and formerly with Asleep at the Wheel. Floyd never
lived in it, but he made sure there was always music in the
house. Floyd bought it from a couple of nightclub owners.
Aside from the total cosmetic makeover, this work involved rebuilding a
decrepit fireplace, reinforcing the structure, replacing all of the
plumbing
and electrical, redesigning the kitchen and bath, adding a sunroom and
laundry room and building a new garage and carport. Along the
way, they
made landscape and energy efficiency improvements.
