Labor Day weekend usually signals the end of summer, white pants, and working yourself to the bone. But if your idea of “labor” involves mixing a craft cocktail on a private patio rather than grinding away in a cubicle, we have the ultimate long-weekend upgrade. Meet the hottest architectural flex to hit the Turtle Creek and Oak Lawn border in a while: a Bud Oglesby-designed townhome at 3210 Elizabeth St. that turns urban living into a full-time escape.

Upstairs, the peaceful primary suite feels like a boutique hotel, complete with two custom closet systems and a spa-style shower designed to wash away the workday stress…
