Freeport blends 1930s architecture with Gulf Coast views

Gulf shores, a golf course and new homes, oh my. Nestled along the Old Brazos River, Freeport is a quaint seaside town that thrives with strides. The streets of Freeport are lined with homes that date back to the 1930s. Beachfront design vibes are all over as the community overlooks the Gulf of Mexico.

New Craftsman homes and multilevel beach houses with private docks

Ranch-style homes are the most prevalent, sitting on ample lots dotted with mature oak trees. Massive waterfront beach houses overlook the Old Brazos River, boasting multilevel wrap-around porches and patios for entertaining and private boat docks for those who enjoy taking to the water. Newer homes built in the 2010s offer Craftsman architectural designs, with many having two stories. Newly built homes are also finding their way to the port in the form of cozy two-story homes and stilted beach houses, flaunting brick and vinyl façades with carport or detached and attached garage options, all with water views. The more seasoned homes in the area are generally priced under $200,000, while newer contemporary homes can be priced in the mid-$200,000s. New builds can range from the low $200,000s to the high $400,000s, and waterfront estates can be nearly $900,000.
