AUCTION: Bidder registration deadline: 2 December. Starting bids expected between $2M–$3M. Spanning more than 20 acres on the shores of Galveston Bay, this historic waterfront estate offers rare scale, privacy, and separation from surrounding parcels within the greater Houston area. Gated and approached beneath a porte-cochère, the traditional residence dates to circa 1912 and pairs timeless character with brick and wood floors, two wood-burning fireplaces, a wet bar and two staircases. Expansive living and gathering rooms take in views of the bay, while a large guest house and additional poolside bedrooms provide separate accommodations. Outdoors, a pool and spa, bulkheaded frontage, tennis court, and two private boat docks with two long piers invite life on the water. Suited to a private estate, long-term land holding, or low-density waterfront concept, subject to approvals, the property offers uncommon flexibility.
