## Property Description
A rare opportunity to own a part of Rockport’s history. The Mathis House is a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark. John M Mathis (1831-1922) had his home built for his family in 1868-69. Instrumental in platting the town of Rockport, he served as its first mayor in 1870. In 1880 he deeded the house to his cousin Thomas H Mathis, a leading rancher, shipper and banker. Exhibiting Italiante, Classical and Greek Revival details, the raised cottage features a center passage plan, arcaded basement and entry portico with paired fluted columns. Elegant formal rooms and abundant country kitchen. Grand master bedroom is ensuite.  12-15 foot ceilings and picture molding. Long Leaf Pine flooring. Current owner has added an inground pool for outdoor enjoyment and restored a portion of the interior to its original shiplap. The 18,500 sf lot next door is also for sale – expanding the footprint and possibilities for this unique estate.

## Local Market Context: Portland, Aransas Pass & Rockport
North of the bay, life shifts between suburban neighborhoods, working fishing harbors and bayfront communities where golf carts and boat slips are part of everyday life.

## Before You Make an Offer in This Area
Ask for windstorm certificates on the roof, windows and any additions; San Patricio and Aransas are coastal windstorm counties. Check the flood zone and ask for an elevation certificate, especially near the bays and canals. On canal and waterfront homes, have the dock, boat lift and shoreline structures inspected, and ask about canal depth at low water. In Rockport, ask for permits and repair records on homes rebuilt after Hurricane Harvey. If you plan to rent the home out, check the city's short-term rental rules and any HOA rules first. Outside city limits, confirm whether the home is on sewer or septic.

*Note: Windstorm insurance and flood zones vary by property; Marci can point you to the right specialist. This isn't insurance or legal advice.*
