The front yard boasts beautiful, giant coastal oaks twisted by the wind. It is said that Carnival workers and Gypsies settled in Aransas Pass. There are a few houses with two front doors, ours being one, which meant it was the home of a tarot card reader. Even if this passed-down story isn't 100% accurate, we have grown to love the uniqueness and beauty of this very special, almost 100-year-old home.
The backyard is surrounded by an 8-foot privacy fence, offering a truly private, resort-like experience with tasteful outdoor lighting. The backyard has been fully renovated with a beautiful travertine tile patio and a custom pool. On one side of the pool, there is a covered patio, two two-person hammocks, and gorgeous cabana curtains that blow in the warm coastal winds. The grill is also located in this area. On the other side of the pool is a minimal mulched area with a fire pit, Adirondack chairs, and a fantastic Bijou-Build Mainstay playscape for children and adults alike.
Inside the home, you will find hardwood floors throughout, a deep porcelain tub, and century-old architectural details, alongside new features like granite countertops, a great AC system, custom cabinets, wardrobes throughout, and all the amenities you need, including quality bedding and DreamCloud mattresses. Enjoy the richness of the various textures and subtle details around every corner to make your stay more memorable.
My husband and I have had the privilege of traveling and staying at many short-term rentals all over the world. Through our experiences, we have learned a few valuable lessons. First, invest in good beds, linens, and pillows. Getting good sleep matters. It’s the foundation of enjoying your getaway. Second, we always want to ensure that when you walk in through the door, there is excitement in checking out all the little spaces, the small and big details have all been thought about. Third, good knives! We cook, and we know that chopping an onion with a dull knife is not only the worst but also somewhat dangerous. 😅 Our guests' experience matters, and we love feedback so we can continue to meet this expectation!
Although this is a vacation home, it is also our vacation home. Why, you ask? Well, we chose the Gulf Coast because I’m originally from Texas. Port Aransas was the beach I grew up on. My childhood memories are sprinkled with Gulf Coast magic, and I want to ensure that I pass this on to my children and grandchildren. I also loved the idea of having a home closer to my family and friends in Texas. Aransas Pass met that mark.
After living in the Pacific Northwest on the Puget Sound for 10 years, our dream of returning to create something on the shores of the Gulf Coast came true. Hence, the name ~ Sound to Shore.
We look forward to sharing our dream with you all and hope that you make wonderful family memories here. Unplug, cook, fish, crab, beach in Port A, get candy in Port A, beach in Rockport, come back, and relax by the pool. Sleep in, play, and reconnect.
Well-established, quiet neighborhood in Aransas Pass.
