What is for sale at 4402 Zelsky Road in Freeport, TX?
4402 Zelsky Road (MLS# 25208957) is a $268,000 multi-unit investment property in Freeport's Demi-John community: two updated rental homes plus a concrete RV pad on one lot, 0.2 miles from the Demi-John boat ramp.

Here's the real deal on 4402 Zelsky Road: what you get, who it fits, and the one number every buyer should double-check before they write an offer. (Spoiler: it's the taxes. Stick around.)

What You Get: Two Homes, One Lot, Zero Boring
Both homes were updated with the stuff buyers and renters actually care about. Think quartz countertops, laminate floors, and modern fixtures. No carpet to replace every time a tenant moves out. That's a big win for anyone who's ever paid for a make-ready.
- Two separate rental homes on one lot, so you have two streams of income, not one.
- Quartz countertops and laminate flooring in both homes. It looks sharp and it holds up well.
- Appliances included: refrigerator, freestanding oven, microwave, and electric range.
- Shared covered palapa, the spot for fish fries, shade, and "just one more" conversations.
- Concrete RV pad for your own rig, a guest's, or a possible third income stream (check local rules first).
- Composition roof, slab foundation, ceiling fans, back yard, and partial fencing.
- Tenant-occupied, so you're not starting from zero on day one.
Why Demi-John? Location Is the Whole Game on the Coast
On the Texas Gulf Coast, price follows location first: how close you are to the water and how easy it is to get on it. Square footage comes second. Demi-John sits on the Freeport side of Brazoria County, and this lot is just 0.2 miles from the Demi-John boat ramp. That's close enough to hear the boat trailer and far enough that you don't have to.
For anglers and weekend boaters, a short run to the ramp is money in the bank. It also makes the rental easier to fill, because renters who love the water will pay for easy access to it. And you're a short drive from Surfside Beach and Quintana for sand-in-your-toes days.
Who This Property Is Built For
The small investor who wants to start
Two doors on one lot, one roof over your head (so to speak), and one closing. It's a clean way to get into rental property without buying two separate places.
The "live in one, rent the other" buyer
Live in one home and let the other help cover your costs. Park your RV on the pad. This is called house hacking, and it's one of the oldest wealth plays in real estate. Talk to your lender about how rental income may count toward qualifying.
The weekend angler with a plan
Keep one home as your coastal base camp and rent the other. Your boat stays close to the ramp, and your getaway pays part of its own way.
The Smart-Buyer Twist: Don't Budget on Today's Tax Bill
Listed taxes: $401 per year. That number is real on the MLS, but here's the plain-English truth: in Texas, a low tax bill often reflects the current owner's appraisal history or exemptions. After a sale, the appraisal district can reassess the property, and exemptions like a homestead don't transfer to you.
So before you run your rental math, look up the property on the Brazoria County Appraisal District site. Then estimate your taxes using the full market value and current local rates. The Texas Comptroller's property tax guide explains how it all works.
This is where it helps to have a broker who's also a Texas Licensed Property Tax Consultant. Cathy Carter can walk you through a realistic tax estimate before you commit. It's just one part of the Signature Difference.
While you're doing your homework, also check the flood zone on the FEMA Flood Map Service Center and get insurance quotes early. On the coast, insurance is part of the price. For bigger-picture Texas housing data, the Texas Real Estate Research Center at Texas A&M is a great place to start.
