Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set on the wetlands of Port Aransas, this house has a tropical yard that earns its keep – a private pool ringed by loungers, a converted boat seating area, and an alfresco kitchen for cooking as the sun goes down. Wrap-around balconies look out over the nature preserve, and the main bedroom opens straight onto one of them. Inside, exposed wood beams give the upstairs living area real character – as do the many kitschy nautical touches dotted around. The whole neighbourhood sits within Port Aransas's golf cart zone, so getting around is a breeze, too.

Home truths
Three of the five bedrooms – bedrooms two, three, and four – are not connected to the main house. Worth bearing in mind if you're travelling with guests who might find that less convenient.
You'll have parking for up to four vehicles on the premises, and boat parking is available too.
The boat on the property is a decorative feature and not available for guest use – it's a great spot for photos, but you won't be taking it out on the water.
You'll need to be 25 years or older to book this home.
