    What's special

    Historic fourplex located on one of the East End Historic District’s most established streets. Rich in character, this property showcases original woodwork, soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and preserved architectural details throughout. The downstairs unit features a spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath layout, while the upper levels include three 1-bedroom, 1-bath apartments — two located on the second floor and an additional attic apartment. Utilities are separately metered for each unit with the exception of gas. Currently income-producing, the flexible layout offers the opportunity to continue as an investment property or potentially convert back into a remarkable single-family residence. Recent plumbing, electrical, and roof updates have been completed over the years. Ideally positioned near downtown Galveston, the Strand, restaurants, and entertainment, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Galveston history with endless potential.
