Description

This lovely raised home is in the East End Historic District of Galveston and architecturally, it represents the transition between High Victorian and Queen Anne styles. There is some uncertainty around when it was built the Galveston Central Appraisal District has it built in 1896, previous sellers and references claim 1907. The Thomas Bollinger family maintained ownership until 1948, when they sold to Alice A. Mullen who owned the property until 1987. Because the property has so few owners, the house has managed to stay largely intact and retains most of its original design. The many highlights include double galleries, lots of light walk-thru windows, and artistically crafted wood floors that add to its charm. The home boasts three bedrooms and two bathrooms (one newly renovated) along with an updated kitchen. The sellers have just added a shower in downstairs bathroom, making it a full bath. An anomaly in a historic home is that the all windows open! Appliances and rug in upstairs bedroom conveys. Fenced in yard. Walkable to most of the Island finest attractions! All bedrooms are upstairs. This is a charming home.
