Description

Own a piece of Galveston history in the heart of the East End Historic District. Constructed between 1866 and 1868 by Capt. John Davidson, the renowned Davidson-Penland House remarkably took no water during Hurricane Ike and has been home to several distinguished Galvestonians, including Samuel Penland, grandnephew of Sam Houston. This beautifully restored single-story Victorian offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, original wood floors, a renovated kitchen, updated bathrooms, upgraded systems, and fresh interior finishes throughout. A detached garage and storage room provide added convenience, while the spacious, beautifully landscaped backyard is perfect for entertaining or relaxing in the coastal breeze. Ideally located just minutes from UTMB, The Strand, local bakeries, coffee shops, restaurants, and Galveston’s premier attractions, this exceptional property blends historic charm with modern comfort.
