Property Description

Step into history on Postoffice Street. Built in 1898 and a proud survivor of the Great Storm of 1900, this East End Victorian captures everything we love about Galveston’s historic charm. Heart pine floors, soaring ceilings, pocket doors, transoms, and double front galleries that open to the coastal breeze. The bright and flexible layout adapts to your lifestyle. Improvements include sheetrock, paint inside and out, replaced sills, zoned high-efficiency A/C, and updated electrical. This property blends historic character with modern opportunity. Configure it as a duplex, create one or two short-term rentals, design an in-law suite, or enjoy it as a spacious full-time residence within walking distance of the Strand, UTMB, coffee shops, and more. The large back offers off street parking and garage access. If you have been dreaming of living where history meets possibility, this is your chance to write the next chapter in one of Galveston’s most beloved neighborhoods. Bee Inspired Living
