The Gillette House in Houston, Texas is a one-story frame cottage with a hipped roof that was built in 1904 in the Houston Heights area. James Gillette, the original owner, was an attorney. [ 2 ] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
The Houston Heights, one of the earliest planned communities in Texas, is located 4 miles (6.4 km) northwest of Downtown Houston.A National Geographic article says "stroll the area's broad, tree-canopied esplanades and side streets dotted with homes dating from the early 1900s and you may think you've landed in a small town."
Historically, a townhouse was the city residence of a noble or wealthy family, who would own one or more country houses in which they lived for much of the year. From the 18th century, landowners and their servants would move to a townhouse during the social season (when major balls took place). [1]
