About 511 17th Street

Welcome to the 1899 Isaac Heffron Estate, a landmark in Galveston’s East End Historic District and a proven income-producing opportunity. Currently operating as a successful short-term rental, the home offers seven spacious guest suites, each with its own en-suite bath—an exceptionally valuable rental configuration. Beautifully preserved, the estate features original woodwork, a grand central staircase, marble and tile fireplaces, original flooring, and expansive wraparound porches. Major exterior updates include a new roof and fresh exterior paint in 2023. Set on nearly three full lots, the property includes an oversized garage and ample space for a future pool, further enhancing future revenue opportunities. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a historically significant, turn-key income property in one of Galveston’s most desirable districts. The home may also be easily converted to a stunning single-family residence if preferred.

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.
