HISTORY OF THE 1926 SUMMER WIND COTTAGE

The house was built in April 1926 for Richard Stelter. He lived there with his wife, children, and mother for many years.  At one time, this lot was on a multi-acre parcel extending from Avenue Q 1/2 through 31st Street. The garage was added in 1954 and was an automotive repair shop for many years. The house has seen several owners since 1926 but over time, has been restored to its early American design. It has the best of both worlds—the historic home charm but with all of the modern amenities such as a private pool, chef's kitchen, new central air-conditioning, smart TVs and super fast WiFi! This house is a historic Galveston gem that you do not want to miss!
