About this property

Charming Historic Stunner w/Covered Deck + Views!

  • Step into a little piece of Texas Gulf Coast history at this charming 2-bedroom coastal home in Surfside Beach on Follets Island, just minutes from the beach. Elevated on piers to take advantage of the coastal setting, the home offers beautiful views, abundant natural light, and a covered deck that may quickly become your favorite place to watch the sunset.

    The home also comes with a story. According to local history passed down over the years, the original shiplap structure dates back to the 1800s, when it was located near the mouth of the Brazos River and used to help flag ships traveling in and out of the river. When the mouth of the Brazos was later relocated and the ship channel widened, the structure was moved to its current location and eventually transformed into the unique coastal home you see today.

    Inside, the main living spaces are open and welcoming, making it easy for everyone to spend time together. Cook dinner in the kitchen, settle in for a movie, bring out the games, or simply relax after a day at the beach. Large windows throughout the home fill the space with natural light and add to its easygoing coastal feel.

    Just off the living room is a cozybunk room with two twin beds. It's a fun, tucked-away space that's especially great for kids or friends traveling together. Next door is a full bathroom with a shower, along with a convenient stacked washer and dryer.

    At the opposite end of the living area, the primary suite features a king bed, plenty of windows, an ensuite bathroom, and direct access to the covered deck.

    The covered deck

    This is where you'll want to linger. Because the home is elevated, the deck catches wonderful coastal views and breezes while giving you a front-row seat for the evening sky. Grab a drink, settle into a chair, and watch the colors change as the sun goes down.

    Sleeping arrangements

    Primary Bedroom: King bed + ensuite bathroom + deck access
    Bunk Room: Two twin beds
    Sofa: queen sleeper
    Maximum occupancy: 6 guests

    Location

    You'll be just a couple of minutes from the beach, making it easy to spend the day along the Gulf and return home whenever you want a break from the sun. The location is ideal for beach weekends, fishing trips, small families, couples, and friends looking for a relaxed Surfside Beach getaway without giving up the character of a truly unique home.

    Historic character, Gulf Coast scenery, beautiful sunsets, and the beach just minutes away make this much more than a typical beach house. It's a special little piece of the Texas coast with a story all its own.
