Home Details
A true island charmer, this brick cottage delivers coastal living just 5 min from the beach & close to the Seawall, Pleasure Pier, Moody Gardens & Schlitterbahn. Warm hardwood floors, solid wood walls/ceilings, graceful archways throughout & a large open living area w/ a bay window create a bright, welcoming feel enhanced by 21 windows. Enjoy a formal dining room w/ chandelier plus a classic kitchen connected to a cozy breakfast nook w/ built-in storage. Big bedrooms offer comfort after long beach days, while a fully fenced backyard—featuring a new 8-ft cedar fence—adds privacy for grilling, relaxing or storing beach gear. A detached garage w/ carport provides flexibility for bikes, boards & tools, paired w/ peace of mind from roof shingles replaced just 2 years ago. Set on a quiet street in Palm Gardens, this home offers strong rental potential thanks to its prime location, making it an ideal weekend getaway, full-time residence or smart investment opportunity.
