⭐ SEEN ON TV'S RESTORING GALVESTON — NOW IT COULD BE YOURS
Some homes are admired. Some homes are remembered. Very few become Galveston icons.
Welcome to The 1887 Gustave Mayhoff Cottage, one of Galveston's most recognized homes and a property that people still stop to photograph. Featured on Restoring Galveston (formerly The Big Texas Fix) and lovingly restored by Michael and Ashley Cordray of Save 1900, this home has become one of the island's most recognizable residences.
A 1900 Storm Survivor and cherished by generations of Galveston families, this is more than a house—it's a piece of Galveston's story.
What I love most? The lifestyle.
Imagine morning walks to the beach, sunset strolls along the Seawall, dinner at your favorite local restaurant, or cocktails at Hotel Galvez—all just a short walk from your front door. Then come home to your own private backyard retreat complete with a luxury pool, hot tub, outdoor entertaining spaces, and the kind of charm that simply can't be recreated today.
✨ Highlights:
• Featured on Restoring Galveston
• Built in 1887 | 1900 Storm Survivor
• 6 Bedrooms | 3.5 Baths
• Stunning 15-foot marble kitchen island
• Two spacious primary suites
• Resort-style pool & hot tub
• Whole-home generator
• Massive walk-in closets
• Rare off-street parking with room for vehicles, golf carts, boat, and more
• Walking distance to the beach, Seawall, dining, and entertainment
This is the kind of home people remember long after they've left—and one of the rare opportunities to own one of Galveston's most iconic residences.
