Discover elevated island living just minutes from Galveston’s sandy shores, the vibrant Historic Strand District, and downtown’s celebrated nightlife. This 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers 2,462 square feet of timeless charm and modern elegance. Beautifully furnished with a nod to Southern plantation style, the home blends comfort and class—featuring gleaming hardwood floors, stylish finishes, and inviting spaces designed for both relaxation and entertainment.
Step inside and you’re welcomed by open-concept living with rich, redefined elements that radiate warmth and sophistication. The kitchen is the true heart of the home—featuring stainless steel appliances, a sleek subway tile backsplash, dramatic black cabinetry, and a center island that seats two. The adjacent dining area seats six comfortably, perfect for gathering after a day exploring the island. Natural light pours through the abundant windows, while the cozy grey pull-out sofa near the dining space provides additional sleeping space for two guests.
All three bedrooms are nestled on the second floor, offering private sanctuaries for rest and retreat. The luxurious king master suite features a smart TV and a spa-inspired ensuite with a soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. A queen bedroom with its own smart TV boasts a private bath with a shower/tub combo. The full-over-full bunk room includes a twin trundle and a private ensuite with a TV—perfect for younger guests or a family-friendly stay. Each room offers thoughtful touches, comfort-forward bedding, and an atmosphere of quiet coastal sophistication.
The outdoor living is just as inviting. Rock the day away on the expansive front porch or enjoy evening conversation around the propane fire pit in the fully fenced backyard. Fire up the charcoal grill and take your pick from a collection of yard games, including cornhole, to keep the fun going. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the front porch or heading out for fresh seafood and fine dining nearby, this home places you in the center of everything Galveston has to offer—wrapped in style, comfort, and a whole lot of charm.
