About
The McKinney-McDonald House is a distinguished Galveston landmark and Victorian masterpiece where rich history and thoughtful restoration converge. Built in 1890, this Eastlake-style Victorian residence is located in the East End Historic District and reflects the craftsmanship and architectural character of its era. Hallmarks of Victorian design, including intricate millwork, decorative wood detailing, ornate hardware, and a dramatic spiral staircase presence, are carried throughout, with Eastlake influence expressed through its refined ornamentation. Steep gabled forms, a distinctive patterned shingle design, and its widow’s walk further define the home’s architectural identity. Classic porches, thoughtfully oriented to capture the Gulf breeze, enhance both function and design, true to the period. Carefully preserved and restored with a clear respect for its original form, the home reflects the current owner’s dedication to honoring its history. Previously featured on the Galveston Historic Homes Tour, the residence stands as a testament to the island’s resilience following the Great Storm of 1900. Spanning approximately 4,100 square feet, major systems, including HVAC, electrical, and plumbing, have been thoughtfully updated and discreetly integrated. Ideally located near the Strand and Seawall, the property also includes 614 10th Street, creating a unique opportunity for expanded living or investment. A storied Galveston landmark, preserved with purpose and ready for its next chapter.
