Rare opportunity to own Galveston Bayfront property in Morgan's Point. The house is on about half an acre with 47' of water frontage. Watch the sun rise from the south east facing backyard. Morgan's Point, located 30 miles east of Houston, is rich in Texas history. The city was established in 1822 and is the "Home of the Yellow Rose of Texas" and has many historic homes and sites. Some of the amenities nearby include a 3 mile paved trail for hiking and biking, parks with a playground and picnic areas, Colonel James Morgan New Washington Prairie which is 52 acres of land including a 5 acre pond with a pavilion overlooking the water. Nearby is the La Porte beach area and fishing pier. Investor special, the house needs work. Lots of potential with some TLC for this amazing place to call home.
