BECOME THE NEXT STEWARD OF ONE OF GALVESTON'S HISTORIC LANDMARKS.

A survivor of the 1900 Storm & proudly situated in Galveston's East End Historic District, this property blends timeless Victorian architecture with thoughtful updates for today's lifestyle. Currently configured as two residences with two full kitchens, the home offers flexibility for owner-occupants, multigenerational living, or an income-producing investment.
