Rare opportunity to own one of downtown Galveston's most distinctive residencescomplete with a garage, a true island luxury. Built in October 1964 as the Seinsheimer Insurance Agency, the steel-frame building was designed by architect Louis Oliver and constructed by Oliver Construction with impressive 12-inch exterior walls. Creatively reimagined into a one-of-a-kind residence, it blends history, flexibility, and modern comfort. Spacious rooms, oversized bedrooms, and an updated kitchen provide exceptional living, while the expansive upstairs is ideal for additional sleeping space, a home office, artist's studio, or creative workspace. With no HOA and potential short-term rental opportunities, this property offers exceptional flexibility. Surrounded by new residential development and just steps from restaurants, shopping, galleries, entertainment, and the Strand, this is downtown Galveston living at its best.
