The 1886 James J. Sewall victorian cottage is the oldest house on the block and a survivor of the 1900 Storm. Located in the Lost Bayou Historic District on the east end, this 3-bed, 2-bath home features a 2-car garage, hot tub, and picturesque landscaping. This home inspired the revitalization of the entire neighborhood! Following its debut on the 1999 GHF Homes Tour and a feature on the Galveston Garden Tour, the current owners have continued that legacy with thoughtful updates throughout. The backyard is an entertainer’s dream, boasting an 8x8 wet bar, a large deck, and lush garden with grapefruit and banana trees—perfect for enjoying Galveston's famous bird migration and monarch butterfly seasons. This home is also conveniently located 7 blocks from the beach, .6 miles from the historic downtown, and 1 mile from UTMB.
