Peaceful Retreat with Texas-Shaped Pool

Escape to Tranquil Bay, a stunning 5-bedroom waterfront haven nestled in San Leon, Texas. This sprawling home boasts a unique Texas-shaped pool, fishing pier and breathtaking panoramic views. Perfect for family gatherings or group getaways, Tranquil Bay offers a harmonious blend of indoor comfort and outdoor adventure, creating an idyllic retreat for unforgettable memories.

● Pet Policy: 3 pets are allowed with a $25 fee per pet. Please keep pets off furniture, clean up after them outside, and crate them if left alone indoors.

Upon entering, be greeted by an inviting open layout bathed in warm, natural light. The spacious living room, furnished with plush sofas and a large TV, is the perfect spot to relax and unwind. Adjacent, the elegant dining room features a large table perfectly positioned before expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, capturing panoramic bay views.

Connecting seamlessly to the dining area is a beautiful kitchen, making meal preparation and entertaining a breeze. Down the hall, discover three well-appointed bedrooms: a bright and airy king room, a versatile room with a king bed and a full-over-full bunk bed, and a tranquil retreat with three queen beds and enchanting patio views. The main level also features one and a half bathrooms and a convenient laundry room.

Ascend the staircase to the luxurious primary suite, occupying the entire second floor. This private oasis features a plush king-sized bed, oversized windows framing captivating views, and access to a spacious sun deck, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or evening nightcap. An en-suite bathroom, complete with a spa-like shower and a massive walk-in closet, complements this private oasis.

For those seeking entertainment and fun, the converted garage has been transformed into a sprawling game room, complete with arcade games, table games, and a final bedroom designed to accommodate larger groups with its three full-over-queen bunk beds.

Tranquil Bay`s exceptional outdoor spaces invite relaxation and connection. Meticulously landscaped gardens, shaded fire pit areas, and a charming pergola create an inviting atmosphere for gatherings. Take a refreshing dip in the iconic Texas-shaped pool, soak up the sun on the expansive patio, dine al fresco under the pergola by the pool, or gather around the crackling fire pit under a starry Texas sky.
