Local Insight
At nearly $2,000 per square foot for a 1962 cottage on less than half an acre, you're paying a significant premium purely for the waterfront location on Midnight Pass Road—a desirable but narrow strip with serious flood exposure (AE zone means you'll need flood insurance). Before committing, verify the actual water quality and boat access situation, since this tight lot and older structure mean you're really buying the address and water views rather than getting value on the home itself. The 2-bed/2-bath layout is tight for the price point, so this only makes sense if direct water access and that specific location are non-negotiable for you.
