Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Port Aransas
We moved to here because this is the first stop for a clean breath of fresh air that has travelled thousands of miles across the vast ocean. I still can't believe we have such a perfect spot! Beach and channel view from 2nd floor. Hear the surf and feel the ocean breeze. Cozy enough for my single in-laws and large enough for families with children. It's a great beach walk or a quiet stroll thru the historical neighborhood.
The Unique Benefits at this House
It's great to get to a place and know that there will be a fresh coffee and snacks waiting. Then it really feels like home. Ocean sounds lull me to sleep. I wake up walk by the beach every day. The neighborhood is a quiet and interesting place to walk. I love finding the tiny historical chapel tucked away on the highest spot on the island.
Owner's Map of Port Aransas
We've moved several times. This last change involved trading our horses, cow and goats in for surf boards and flip flops. It helped my sick daughter get well. We love Port A. Thought I'd miss the country quiet, but views of the ocean and dunes are a fair trade. We have a sailboat and love sailing here! I'm now a massage therapist, artist and real estate investments. My husband sails and works on restoring a recently acquired classic Hinckley. The girls skate, bike and surf between school assignments.
