Livin’ the Highland Life

"The waterfront house is just like it sounds. You can't get any closer to Livin' the high life. Located in a quiet country community, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but still close enough to enjoy the great amenities that Galveston has to offer. Enjoy the country setting with unobstructed views from the kitchen, living room, master bedroom or the patio overlooking the Bayou. Stay a while - there's a desk for working, fish off the pier, or relax under the great oak tree.
