Rare I.M. Pei-designed Texas mansion listed at $22 million
A Fort Worth estate designed by renowned architect I.M. Pei has entered the market for the first time since its completion over five decades ago. The property, known as Westover House, is among only three private residences created by the celebrated modernist architect.

The Texas mansion, constructed in 1969, represents a rare opportunity to acquire a residential work by I.M. Pei, whose portfolio is dominated by major institutional and commercial projects. The architect, known for his geometric modernist designs and notable structures including the Louvre pyramid in Paris, completed only three private homes during his career.
Westover House spans nearly four acres in Fort Worth and combines Pei's signature architectural language with residential functionality. The estate features multiple spacious living areas, several bedrooms, and contemporary amenities integrated throughout the property's design.
The listing marks a significant milestone in the real estate market, as the property has remained in private ownership since its initial construction more than 50 years ago. The $22 million asking price reflects the rarity of acquiring a Pei-designed private residence, as most of his works are publicly accessible buildings or corporate headquarters.
Architectural historians and collectors have long sought opportunities to preserve and appreciate Pei's residential designs, making such sales exceptionally uncommon in the marketplace.
