About This Property
Just minutes from legendary Baffin Bay, this exceptional property offers the perfect blend of country living and coastal recreation. Nestled beneath a canopy of mature oak trees and surrounded by South Texas farmland, the approximately 4,100+ square foot home showcases timeless curb appeal with its painted brick exterior, board-and-batten accents, welcoming covered porches, and beautifully maintained grounds. Positioned on a picturesque homesite, the property provides the space and flexibility that are increasingly difficult to find. The versatile floor plan includes a first-floor primary suite, dedicated office/study, multiple living and dining areas, a gathering kitchen, oversized laundry, and five additional upstairs bedrooms. Three full bathrooms, plus a half bath, provide convenience throughout. Recent major improvements are extensive and include updated HVAC system with dehumidification, blown-in insulation, replacement windows, updated roofs, exterior doors, updated kitchen appliances, flooring in multiple areas, and septic systems. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a large covered patio. A detached garage and bonus room provide additional space for storage, hobbies, equipment, workshop use, or recreational needs. Located just minutes from some of the finest fishing waters on the Texas coast, this property offers quick access to boating, fishing, birding, and hunting opportunities while maintaining the peace and privacy of rural living. With its generous accommodations, detached bonus space, and proximity to Baffin Bay, this property would make an outstanding private retreat, corporate getaway, or potential outfitter's lodge. Short-term rentals are common in the area, creating additional flexibility for future ownership opportunities. If you've been searching for a spacious South Texas property that combines recent improvements, room for many, and close proximity to Baffin Bay, this is a rare opportunity worth exploring.
