On the Bay | Hot Tub | Pet Friendly

Experience the unparalleled beauty of this south-facing canal home, where breathtaking BAY & Canal Views await from both the North and South decks. This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath abode is perfect for an intimate family vacation getaway or a weekend retreat with friends.

Nestled at the tranquil end of the canal, flanked by open water on two sides and no neighboring houses to the east or west, you'll relish the sense of space and serenity. Inside, vaulted ceilings soar above, luxury vinyl plank flooring adds elegance, and quartz countertops grace the kitchen. Soft, natural tones adorn the interior, creating an atmosphere of relaxation and comfort. The open kitchen seamlessly spills into the living and dining area, making entertaining a breeze. A bar top that seats four and a dining table for six provide ample space for meals and gatherings.

The desirable floor plan allocates two bedrooms, one bath, and a utility room on the first level. The first bedroom boasts a queen bed with a twin sleeper, while the second bedroom features full size bunk beds with a twin trundle, perfect for a restful night's sleep. There is also a twin sleeper located in the living room. Upstairs, the primary retreat awaits, offering a king-size bed, a private covered deck with mesmerizing bay views, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath complete with double sinks, a soaking tub, and a separate shower.

The sprawling rooftop deck invites you to relax and unwind in style. There's ample space to spread out, whether you're soaking up the sun's warm embrace, enjoying a leisurely sunbath, or savoring a delightful al fresco meal at the outdoor dining table that seats eight. The expansive deck offers stunning views from either side or try your hand at fishing in the canal downstairs, and relish the convenience of a full bar area.

For those seeking the ultimate relaxation, the hot tub beckons. You can also indulge in fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and crab trapping adding a touch of adventure to the mix. (Equipment is provided.) Entertain your guests in style with the downstairs bar area, lounge area and hot tub. The house also comes with an EV car charger!

Terramar, your coastal haven, offers an array of amenities including a pool, boat ramp, beach access, frisbee golf course, and a pavilion area. Plus, it's just a golf cart ride away from Sea Isle's restaurants, marina, and stores. This home is more than a vacation rental; it's a gateway to a world of relaxation and adventure by the sea.

Darn near perfect

Well designed, lovely property. Even had a Christmas tree set up for our stay - much appreciated. We were all very comfortable. Loved seeing Galveston Bay from the front balconies. Thanks for the great experience.
