Description

Step into a rare opportunity in Galveston’s coveted East End Historic District. This beautifully preserved 1893 corner store location offers unmatched versatility for residential, commercial, or live/work use. The main level is currently an inspiring art studio with a full bath, large workroom with gas, water, and cabinetry—perfect for conversion into a second kitchen, beautiful pocket doors, high ceilings, a bedroom/office, and more. It’s the perfect support space for the business, or added living set-up. Upstairs, the spacious quarters feature hardwood floors, natural light, large windows, a huge primary suite, large sunroom for sunrises, another 1.5 baths, and a balcony off the kitchen for sunsets. Comfort features include 2 tankless water heaters, a Generac whole-house generator, off-street parking with an automatic gate, and a private courtyard. Situated minutes from UTMB and downtown, this property blends historic character with modern convenience and endless potential.
