Beachfront with views, views, & more views!
Unlike most beach houses on the island, this home's architecture was designed to take advantage of its prime beach front location providing almost every room in the home with abundant light and gorgeous views of the Gulf of Mexico. Whether you're soaking in the master tub, cooking in the kitchen, eating in the dining room, lounging in the family room by the fireplace, working in the bunk room office, relaxing or sunning on one of our sun decks, using the private dune walkover and deck areas, or sleeping in one of the five bedrooms, you will be enjoying deep blue ocean views!

Just a short drive from the Houston area and you've reached Moss Landing on Crystal Beach. As soon as you board the Galveston Island Ferry en route, you'll feel the stress of city life melting away. And then, after the short 15 minute ferry ride (or take the alternate bridge route if you prefer), you soon arrive in Crystal Beach where you'll find this island paradise retreat sitting on almost an acre of prime ocean-front property ready to host you, your family, and friends for an idyllic beach vacation.
