Port Aransas - Beach Property For Sale #7261914

THE SWEETEST LOCATION, SOUL AND HISTORY IN THIS OLD TOWN PORT ARANSAS HOME! Built around 1928 on the Chapman Ranch in South Texas, this home is thought to have originally been a camp or workers' house on the ranch. It is said to have been brought by barge in two sections to 12th Street in about 1949. Undergoing various remodels over the years and fitted with comfortable, modern updates, there are still many very cool original materials in the home that lend to the amazingly soulful beach vibe. Developer/builder Brandon Lafayette purchased its property in 2025 and moved the home just feet from its original location to its current location on a brand new foundation in order to preserve this beautiful piece of island history. Super-sweet location tucked away in a quiet part of Old Town, yet very close to the Chapel in the Dunes, the beach, pier, jetties, shopping, dining, schools & marinas! Walk or golf cart to your favorite restaurants or your favorite surf spot - the Horace Caldwell Pier! While 701 Chapman Cove has a rich island history, its surrounding subdivision, Chapman Cove, is a new addition with 9 additional lots that will mirror the coastal craftsman style of 701 Chapman Cove. Wonderful short-term rental investment and/or personal paradise opportunity! This location cannot be beat! Don't Miss the Boat!
