About This Home

As of February 2023

Nestled on a shady 5,500 sq.ft. lot, this impeccably maintained brick Bungalow offers period finishes and recent updates throughout. Its location in Palm Gardens, one of the quietest neighborhoods in Galveston, minimizes traffic -- perfect for buyers considering a second home or a place to retire. Those looking for an investment will find a lucrative short-term rental that generated $34.7K in 2021 and $34.3K in Jan-Oct 2022. Every room in the house is bathed in natural light and features hardwood flooring and recessed lights. Updated kitchen offers granite counters, a gas range, under-cabinet lighting, and a separate breakfast room area. Sizable bedrooms feature period trim, doors, and hardware. Bath was updated in 2022 with new tile, sink, toilet, and a walk-in, frameless glass-door shower. Backyard is a host’s dream! The raised deck and pergola were built with the Ipe Brazilian hardwood. Steps lead down from the deck to the large greenspace, with an outdoor shower and a tiki-bar!
