This beautifully restored Gulf Coast cottage is in the top 1% of all stays. It has earned this ranking by blending timeless heritage with tasteful, modern design. Built in 1871, the home is a testament to the island’s rich past and resilience—having weathered the Storm of 1900 and enduring generations of change.
The residence was recently reimagined by the acclaimed team behind the television show Restoring Galveston, who brought fresh life to its classic architecture while preserving its storied foundation. Its façade, original brick pathways, and charming coastal proportions nod to its ancestry, while the interiors have been elevated to offer every contemporary comfort.
Inside, the home welcomes up to eight guests with a spacious and intuitive layout ideal for both retreat and gathering. A thoughtful floor plan includes three elegant bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, as well as a cozy study with a queen-size sleeper sofa and convenient half bath. The primary suite features a king bed, a luxurious bath with a double shower and soaking tub, and ample natural light. There is an additional primary suite on the first floor with a king bed and a luxurious bath with a walk-in shower.
Two distinct living rooms provide space for relaxation, while the fully equipped chef’s kitchen, complete with modern appliances, Keurig, wine fridge, and island seating, creates the perfect environment for shared meals and conversation. Every detail, from the curated furnishings to the plush linens and luxury bath essentials, has been chosen with care.
The home’s outdoor amenities invite quiet moments and lively connection. A private, heated pool is bordered by a privacy fence and comfortable seating for eight. A screened-in patio offers a shaded haven for morning coffee or evening cocktails, while a firepit and outdoor shower enhance the coastal lifestyle. With gated parking, beach essentials provided, and modern conveniences like central air, Smart TVs, washer & dryer and high-speed WiFi, the home offers ease and elegance in equal measure.
