Why the Owner Chose North Padre Island
This condominium is really like a large two story duplex. Your parking location is just steps to the front door, not like the larger hotel like condominiums in the area. This unit is very easy to find and is a short boat ride to the Laguna Madre or a short ride to the Whitecap Beach which is very family friendly and patrolled by the Nueces County Sheriff and Corpus Christi PD. You can part your vehicle close to the water which is not possible on most of the beaches in Port Aransas. Most of the popular restaurant and stores are located on South Padre Island Drive which is just down the road. Corpus Christi is a very easy drive from Austin or San Antonio and you won't have to wait in a long ferry line when arriving or departing like you do in Port Aransas.
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
This unit is over 1,500 sq. ft. all on the second floor on the complex with no neighbors above you! This unit is ideal for two or three families to enjoy as the kids can share a large bedroom with their own TV/DVD so the adults can enjoy the deck or living room in the evening in peace. This unit faces south so the deck, balcony and fishing pier are have nice shade in the afternoon. This unit was built in 1999 and was a builder owned unit so it has a lot of nice upgrades such as extensive crown molding and intercom system.
Owner's Map of North Padre Island
My name is Van Swift, I am a banker in Austin. We live in the Lake Travis school district. Go Cavs! My family has owned a vacation home in the Corpus Christi area for many years and we looked around for a long time before deciding to purchase this unit. We really like the location of this home due to it's proximity to great fishing, a great beach and many great restaurants.
