The Home: Our home began life approximately 70 years ago as a small beach house in this quiet eclectic bayfront community called El Jardin del Mar. Over the years it has evolved into a __ square foot* home with 3 bedrooms, 1.75 baths, a reception/formal living room, family room, dining area, and two office areas. We are located in the highly rated Clear Creek ISD (CCISD). This beachy home along Galveston Bay is truly a lifestyle! *Please see house plans for details, but buyer is to verify all information. About the Home: The home is wood frame construction on blocks and beams (pier and beam). Our home has been added to and updated continuously over the years, including new HVAC 8 years ago (maintained regularly), a 12 year old roof, plumbing updated throughout, electrical panel updated by previous owners, and the entire home was raised 18+ inches in 2010. The original floors are wood, with Berber style carpet in the living room and laminate in newer areas. The outside is vinyl siding, which reduces upkeep. With a home this age there will be loving chores to tend to and changes you may want to make as we have over the last 4 years. We have tried to maintain the vintage beach house charm. Outside: The yard is approx. 10k sq. feet, there is an RV/carport, and a 10’ x 20’ storage shed in the back. There are fruiting avocado, banana, and loquat trees. The yards are not like your typical city lots, and there is a large front patio, covered porch, and supports for a covered outdoor dining/grilling area. The home is about 2 blocks away from Galveston Bay and two beaches (one is a public park, the other is privately accessible to neighborhood residents. The lot is located on one of the highest points in the neighborhood and our home has never been flooded (even during Harvey!); the city is also improving drainage along the main roads (El Jardin and Youpon). The Neighborhood: El Jardin del Mar (“the Garden of the Sea”) was founded in 1924. Neighbors are friendly and look out for each other- it’s not unusual to see children biking around the neighborhood or playing at the park or beach. The optional POA is $50/year, which grants access to the private side of the beach and funds are used to maintain and update the two park areas. FAQ's: * No drop-ins please- we can schedule a showing. * Currently, showings require bank letter of pre-qualification. * No owner finance.
