Description

Commanding its corner in Galveston’s storied East End, this 1874 Italianate estate is defined by scale and enduring craftsmanship. Soaring ceilings, original hardwood floors, tall sash windows, and intricate millwork reflect the integrity of its era. Five private suites offer generous proportions and thoughtful separation, complemented by a detached carriage house retreat. Expansive formal and informal living spaces allow for both grand entertaining and intimate daily living. The kitchen is intentionally designed for function and presence, seamlessly serving the home’s central gathering spaces. Outside, mature landscaping and a secluded pool create a true estate setting moments from the coast. A rare opportunity to own architectural significance with modern livability.
