About 4901 Wharton Drive

A true island charmer, this brick cottage delivers coastal living just 5 min from the beach & close to the Seawall, Pleasure Pier, Moody Gardens & Schlitterbahn. Warm hardwood floors, solid wood walls/ceilings, graceful archways throughout & a large open living area w/ a bay window create a bright, welcoming feel enhanced by 21 windows. Enjoy a formal dining room w/ chandelier plus a classic kitchen connected to a cozy breakfast nook w/ built-in storage. Big bedrooms offer comfort after long beach days, while a fully fenced backyard—featuring a new 8-ft cedar fence—adds privacy for grilling, relaxing or storing beach gear. A detached garage w/ carport provides flexibility for bikes, boards & tools, paired w/ peace of mind from roof shingles replaced just 2 years ago. Set on a quiet street in Palm Gardens, this home offers strong rental potential thanks to its prime location, making it an ideal weekend getaway, full-time residence or smart investment opportunity.

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.
