About 1728 Avenue M
Circa 1888, this remarkable Victorian estate is believed to have been built for Charles F. Rhode, a successful cigar manufacturer and prominent Galveston businessman. Rich with history and architectural character, the residence is believed to have ties to renowned architect Alfred Muller and features a dramatic staircase with the original "Four Seasons" stained glass stairwell window, soaring ceilings and exceptional craftsmanship throughout. Situated on two lots, the property offers a pool, two carriage houses and a brick outdoor entertaining area with custom fireplace that has served as the backdrop for countless memorable gatherings. Recent updates include a new roof, full-house Generac generator, renovated primary bath, updated lighting, exterior paint, and renovations to both carriage houses. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Galveston's history in the Lost Bayou Historic District.

School information is generated by the most current available data we have. However, as school boundary maps can change, and schools can get too crowded (whereby students zoned to a school may not be able to attend in a given year if they are not registered in time), you need to independently verify and confirm enrollment and all related information directly with the school.
