Somewhere within this newly listed 1964 Hunters Creek home in the Tara Oaks neighborhood, a plain-old white ceiling or 2 has evaded upgrades. Most of the rooms, however, cap their decor with what the description dubs “carefully chosen finishes,” be they color, exposed beams, soaring vaults, more color, skylights, or some combo thereof. (No glass ceilings or debt ceiling, however — the Memorial Villages asking price hovers at $2,395,000.)

Crisp white trim separates an otherwise single-color work space:
More beams span the ceiling in the master bedroom…

A somber-shaded media room with vaulted ceiling radiates all-in-one vibes:
Even the outdoors has some ceiling framework. Here’s a loggia by the outdoor kitchen and (uncovered) pool:
