Description

Charming coastal cottage on two lots in the gated resort style community of Cape Carancahua. Move-in ready, recently updated and full of function and style; this home is easy on the eyes and budget. Double paned windows and open concept floor plan create a cozy and light filled living space. The walls and ceilings have been retextured and painted along with new hardware and paint on all cabinets and doors. The kitchen is open to the dining/living area and features newer stainless steel appliances and pantry. Tucked around the corner, you'll find a stackable washer and dryer and utility storage. The partially covered wraparound deck is inviting and creates the perfect space for taking in the coastal breeze while escaping the summer sun. Several fruit trees dot the property, including citrus, fig and loquat. Neighborhood amenities include 2 swimming pools, 2 fishing piers, boat ramp, tennis courts, playground, community center, covered pavilion and relaxed atmosphere.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from September 13, 2023

    "A lot of people in this neighborhood, walk their dogs, but they must be on a leash. There is no dog park here. "
  • Valeriewespesser
    "It's close to the water and there are community pools and a boat ramp as well as community parks. It's also close to Formosa, which is the largest employer in the area. "
  • Justin.duran
    "They like the fact that our dogs bark when drug dealers are doing business at night.. it keeps them aware of people walking down the alley ways late at night"
  • Tsthenam
    "Gated community but people of all walks of life live here. The people arm non-pretentious and ride around on golf carts meeting other neighbors nAmenities are nice. This neighborhood is on Carancahua Bay and it is hard to beat the sunrise and sunsets. Very safe!"
  • Debbiegmorris
    "The area has a top school district which is very competitive academically. and a great public library facility for kids and adults."
  • Minecraft4053
    "Really nothing special about it. Palacios is just one of those small towns where’s there’s nothing to do. sure, there’s the ‘beach’ and everything, but it’s nobody’s dream location to be at. "
  • Carol
    "Very nice quiet fishing village. Lots of cottage homes, great schools with a family oriented appeal. Largest number of bird species sighted in Texas. Abundant number of local stores to support local community.....no shopping malls.. but don't need them here. No fashioistia requirements here. Pretty much a hidden secret. Boat docks for shrimping and fishing community huge. "
