About the host

Hosted by Rich Martin

Host profile image

I am a semi-retired Realtor in Houston Heights. I previously owned an old beach house in nearby Jamaica beach years ago. It was on a canal, and I loved the solitude of the area. It was the only place I could truly relax. I say "relax" but being old, it was all I could do to keep up with repairs.
Still, I kicked myself ever since selling it.

Why they chose this property

I finally bought another house; a newer house, a bigger house. Blue Pearl is newer (2016 vs 1970), Hardiplank instead of wood, 2 baths instead of one, central heat and air. It is bright, open, lots of outdoor spaces with both sun and shade.
I picked this location because I don't have to get in car to go to beach. I don't have to cross the highway to get to it. And best of all, it is a no-cars beach, so my grandson can run around and I don't have to keep looking for cars.
The beach is nice too. It doesn't get packed in the summer like nearby Jamaica Beach, or the beaches along the seawall.

What makes this property unique

5 minute walk to beach (about 400 steps) , pulling all your stuff in a wagon.
Three decks, so you can pick sun or shade. Shaded, breezy area under house with two picnic tables. This has also served as a remote "office" or classroom for people who "work at home" away from home.
A quiet neighborhood with friendly welcoming neighbors.
About 6 miles or so to Moody Gardens, about the same distance to the seawall, where all the tourist stuff starts.
Very close to Nate's Restaurant, Waterman's, Way West Grill or Mario's Pizza if you don't want to drive toward town. Great food at all 4.
