BECOME THE NEXT STEWARD OF ONE OF GALVESTON'S HISTORIC LANDMARKS. Built in 1886 & known as the historic Fox House, this remarkable duplex is believed to have been expanded by renowned architect Nicholas J. Clayton following the Great Fire of 1885. A survivor of the 1900 Storm & proudly situated in Galveston's East End Historic District, this property blends timeless Victorian architecture with thoughtful updates for today's lifestyle. Currently configured as two residences with two full kitchens, the home offers flexibility for owner-occupants, multigenerational living, or an income-producing investment. It is popular as housing for UTMB students, yet could easily be transformed back into the magnificent single-family Fox Mansion. Hardwood floors, granite countertops, spacious living areas, double wraparound porches, & generous outdoor spaces create a home that is as functional as it is memorable. This one-of-a-kind property is rich in history, character, and endless possibilities!
