About this property

512 Beach House - Ocean Views from Every Room in this Modern BEACHFRONT Home

'512 Beach House' is a modern, 3 bedroom/2.5 bath, beachfront home with an open floor plan, too many windows to count, and 3 large balconies. The house spreads out across 2 beachfront lots and has 360 degree views of beach and wetlands. The ocean can be seen from every room in the house. As one of our guests said, "Pictures don't do this house justice."

The first floor is a completely open floor plan, perfect for entertaining family and friends. The house is uncluttered and open, allowing for everyone to spread out and find their perfect spot to relax (Personally, I recommend the screen porch). You will enjoy 360 degree views of beach and bay. The house boasts a large modern kitchen with island seating. The kitchen is open to the dining and living areas. There is a large screened in porch off the kitchen with a dining table and couch. It truly is the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee, listen to the ocean, and watch the pelicans fly over the house.

Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The primary bedroom has a king size bed, ensuite bathroom, and large private balcony. As with all the bedrooms, you will enjoy unobstructed ocean views. The guest room also has a king size bed and shares a bathroom with the bunk room. The bunk room has 2 bunk beds (4 twin beds) and a twin daybed that can be pulled out into a king size bed. The bottom bunks are adult tested and approved. To ensure guest comfort, I do not recommend the top bunks for adult guests. The guest room and bunkroom also have doors opening out to their own shared balcony.

'512 Beach House' is conveniently located only minutes from the historic town of Matagorda. Matagorda is a hidden gem that offers visitors many activities, including fishing, bird watching, beachcombing, shelling, swimming, surfing, kayaking, and stargazing. Visitors will find that Matagorda is a much more quiet, natural place than most of the Texas coast.

The house is very spacious and we definitely understand the temptation to invite all your friends to enjoy, but we do have to maintain a strict 8 person maximum on the property at any time. We do not allow parties or gatherings that would have additional persons on property without prior approval in writing. We require a guest registration of names and ages for all guests and a photo ID for guest on the reservation.

You will find that '512 Beach House' is beautifully and completely furnished to ensure that your stay is a comfortable and unforgettable.

Long Weekend

Great getaway for a long holiday weekend. Views from the house are even better in real life. This community is “one with nature” given its close proximity to the dunes and the critters who live there, but still worth it.

Great view & spacious deck(s)

My family and I enjoyed our stay very much. The long open living area made it easy to be together but still do our own things. The mosquitos between the beach and the house were overwhelming, but the beach was always in view due to the many windows and the gulf-facing deck, so we didn't really feel we were missing out.

Perfect

Location is perfect, away from the crowds, house is gorgeous, didn’t have any issues with the walk to the beach. The view from the top balcony is amazing. Kids want to make it a tradition every year to stay at 512. The owners were very kind and helpful, and that made the difference.

Great time in Matagorda

We stayed for 5 nights at this great home on the beach. We spent most days just lounging on the beach. We used our vehicles to drive back and forth to the beach. The home is well furnished and has many great decks for time at the house. There is even a screened in porch for when the bugs are bad. We would definitely recommend this house.

We had a great stay at 512BeachHouse. It was very very clean and stylishly decorated. The kitchen is huge and well-stocked. It had everything we needed. The master bedroom and bath are especially spacious, and the beds are comfortable. The location was perfect - quick walk across the dunes. The host was responsive and accommodating. I hope we get a chance to return! It was a great vacation!

Beautiful location, beautiful home

We rarely take vacations, so, when we do, it needs to be extra special. Our time in Matagorda was wonderful—-amazing sunshine and scenery. We could not have found a better home away from home. Abbey was the perfect hostess, making sure we arrived safely and had everything we needed. We came home tired but full of good memories. I highly recommend this rental and wish you and your family an equally enjoyable vacation!

Great House to share

Booked this with friends and it turned out perfect. Place is better than the pictures show and it was one of the better stocked kitchens for cooking that I’ve seen. Management was very easy to communicate with and very attentive. They even had a new grill delivered to us out first night to replace the one broken by the previous renters just before it. I would definitely book this house again.

Must see to believe!

The photos do not do it justice. The main, dining and kitchen are huge with wonderful lighting (natural and indoor). Main deck as well as both upstair decks are perfect getaways to watch the surf with a glass of wine. Hosts are very attentive and have thought of everything. After 20+ years of going to Matagorda staying at 8 different houses this is definitely the winner. We plan to return for many years to come.

Excellent beach getaway!

We loved our stay at the 512 Beach House. If you're looking for a nice, quiet, secluded beach getaway this is your place. The house was clean, spacious, and comfortable. The outdoor patios and balconies were huge, and made for a wonderful space to enjoy the ocean view. While it was a bit chilly and windy due to the time of year, we enjoyed the private walking trail to the beach, and found the beach to be very clean with beautiful sand and as many seashells as you can collect. Our one wish for the property is that there were more "comfy" spaces to sit in the common areas (another couch or some cozy arm chairs would have been fabulous). Overall, we loved it. Abbey was responsive and helpful with all of our questions. We look forward to coming back again!

About the host

Hosted by Abbey Seidensticker

Host profile image
I am a native Texan and grew up coming to the Texas coast. As a family, we have traveled all over the world, and this little slice holds a special place in our hearts.
Our family fell in love with Matagorda when our son was only 3 months old. We've been frequent visitors ever since and in 2017 we purchased our dream home. Part of that dream is sharing these memories with other families, such as yours. My husband is an avid fisherman and I can't get enough of the beach. We currently live in Austin and make the quick drive down to Matagorda as frequently as possible. We've found our perfect, peaceful, getaway and we hope you'll feel the same way.

Why they chose this property

Matagorda is one of only a handful of places in Texas that have both beach and bay access. Matagorda provides an abundance of fishing opportunities for my husband, and an abundance of quiet, beautiful beach for me.
The town is small and an escape from busy city living.

What makes this property unique

The house is modern, incredibly spacious and open, and has the best views of the beach and the marsh. It spreads out across two beachfront lots. The house has two levels of large balconies to enjoy. It has 42 windows and you can see the ocean from every single room.
