If you looked back at when this home was last purchased, it doesn't even come close to what it looks like today. So many improvements! Freshly painted, new deck to sit out on to watch the Ocean Bay. 
It's probably just a matter of weeks before the trees will be in full bloom on the property. Also, corner lot with almost 7,500 square feet.
To the right of the main home, the 20 x 20 garage has been converted into a complete living area. Again, in front, you have the deck. 
Just look at the size of the newly constructed deck to sit out and watch the water. So comforting!!!
Another great view of the home and the beautiful landscaping. 
Spacious downstairs living area with vinyl flooring that looks like wood. High ceiling! Look at the gorgeous wood paneling leading up to the ceiling. 
Another view of the downstairs area, all freshly painted. It also shows the stairs leading up to the loft, which can easily be a third bedroom. 
Open up the curtains and again, have a view of the deck and the bay. Two pretty chandeliers!! Paintings and the sofa remain with the home. 
A good view of the stairs leading up to the loft. 
Just another good view of the living area showing you how much furniture can go in the main home. 
Gas range, refrigerator, double oven, new microwave and new sink in the kitchen. Excellent storage space.
Two bedrooms down with a shower. Again, freshly painted. 
Second bedroom downstairs with separate bathroom with a shower. 
Tub, sink and toilet in this bathroom. 
Just wanted to mention that both bedrooms down have a ceiling fan. 
Loft area upstairs in the main home. Plenty of area to make this a third bedroom. 
Did I mention that the loft area has its own bath area?
Main bath area with a shower, sink, etc. 
Washer and dryer are included. I love "The Laundry Co." sign. 
Now this photo reflects the conversion of the garage into its own complete living area. It is 20 x 20. It comes with a refrigerator, kitchen area with appliances and a separate bathroom with a shower. Rent it out or use it for relatives or friends. Can't hardly wait for you to see everything that has been done. 
The built-out area has a new window unit. It also has a storage area for food. 
Good view of the separate entryway with a code and thee new A/C unit. 
In the converted garage area, you can see there is sufficient area for "stacked" washer and dryer". 
Another great view of the converted garage for the new kitchen area. New gas range, microwave, sink, refrigerator and cabinet space. Great lighting!!!
This photo reflects how it has been equipped for a stacked washer/dryer next to the range. 
Shower and new sink for the newly converted garage area. 
As I mentioned on a previous photo, the converted garage has a covered patio area to sit out on and view the water. 
Side view of the home along with a photo of the A/C unit purchased in 2019. 
Photo of the 11x9 storage area in back of the home. 
Just another view of the storage unit. If you love to fish, I bet a lot of fishing gear is going to be stored in it. 
Gravel area leading to the storage area between the main home and the garage build-out. 
Just another excellent view of the converted garage and the home. You just have to schedule a time to see it. 
Still plenty of area to park your cars or the boat you are bringing down. 
Literally, just across the street (look at the photo of the home), you have an area with a number of covered picnic benches and even a gas cooking device. 
OK, for those who love to fish, walk down to this pier or another photo will reflect an additional pier. 
Look a the back of this photo!! Do you see your new home? Look at the parking area for folks driving down to fish and relax. 
You are saying WHAT???? Yep, again, walking distance from your home you have a fishing pier I estimate to be more than 100 yards out into the bay. It's basically open right now from 6 to 6. During the summer hours, its daylight to dusk. It only costs $4.00 a day to catch plenty of fish. 
Just another view of the pier extending far out into the bay. I didn't measure it, but it looks long.
It all starts here!!! 
Just another view!!
Right next door to the bathroom facilities, you have a place to purchase your bait and even buy snakes. Humm, I even see a Snow Cone place. 
Oh, you asked if friends, family or a big group wanted to come down to fish, what about a restroom? Yes, it has bathrooms for both men and women. How far is it from the home? Maybe at the most 1/4 mile. MAJOR PRICE REDUCTION!! With improvements made, selling AS IS. If you love the Bay and don't want to spend a fortune you will in Galveston, you have to see this remodeled home facing the Bay in La Porte. You won't find a better-priced home than this one. The main home has two bedrooms down and a loft upstairs that can easily be a 3rd bedroom. The garage has been converted into a self-contained home for family, friends, or relatives or it can be rented out for separate income. Corner lot. Minutes from the High School. Just have your agent provide you the list of all of the conversions and amenities. Directly across the street, you have Sylvan Beach Pavillion/Harris County park and boat ramp. During the freeze, the pipes froze and the owner is in the process of replacing them. Sandy beach for swimming. Be sure to look at each photo that describes what a great place for a permanent home, weekend retreat, or place for rental income. Low taxes. No HOA.
