About this home

Full of history and thoughtfully restored, this one-of-a-kind Galveston cottage offers 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, and an expansive ~370 SF wraparound porch for enjoying the coastal breeze. Believed to have been built from salvaged lumber after the 1900 Storm for a laborer involved in the island's grade raising and Seawall construction, this home is a rare piece of Galveston's heritage. The recent renovation preserves the original wood ceilings, walls, and floors while adding modern comforts, including all-new plumbing, electrical, insulated walls, mini-split HVAC, on-demand water heater, washer/dryer, and new appliances. Smart interior storage, resilient low-maintenance landscaping, and a location just 2.5 blocks from the beach in the sought-after San Jacinto neighborhood complete the package. Ideal as a full-time residence, weekend getaway, or investment, this beautifully restored historic cottage is truly unlike anything else on the market.
