Canal-Front Custom Living on Tiki Island — Where Every Day Begins and Ends on the Water

Welcome to 438 Amanda Circle — a 2021-built custom home on one of Tiki Island's most coveted canal-front streets, where direct bay access, effortless boating, and a true island lifestyle converge in one beautifully executed package. Spanning 2,825 square feet across two stories and featuring four bedrooms and three-and-a-half bathrooms, this home delivers the full Tiki Island experience: open water views, a private boat lift, resort-caliber outdoor living, and the kind of quality craftsmanship that only comes from a builder who knows this island intimately. Whether you're searching for a full-time waterfront residence, a private family getaway, or a high-performing short-term rental investment, 438 Amanda Circle is move-in ready and built to impress.

Designed for the Water

From the moment you arrive, this home makes its priorities clear. The two-story layout is oriented to maximize canal and water views from every level, with generous outdoor deck space that invites morning coffee with the pelicans and sunset cocktails over open water. A private boat lift puts JonesBay and Galveston Bay within minutes, making this home a natural base for fishing, boating, and exploring the Texas Gulf Coast. The canal setting on Amanda Circle is one of Tiki Island's most sought-after — quiet enough for a true island retreat, yet perfectly positioned for water access in every direction.

The Residence

Inside, the open-concept floor plan flows naturally between living, dining, and kitchen areas, with high ceilings and an abundance of natural light that reflects the surrounding water throughout the day. The well-appointed kitchen anchors the main living level — designed for gathering, entertaining, and the kind of effortless coastal hospitality that defines life on the island. Four bedrooms provide flexible accommodation for families, guests, or rental visitors, with three full bathrooms and a convenient half bath rounding out a floor plan that balances privacy with shared living space. The primary suite offers a genuine retreat, finished with the attention to detail that defines Jimmy Garner's work throughout.

Outdoor Living at Its Finest

Tiki Island living happens outside, and this home delivers. Multiple deck levels give you front-row seats to canal traffic, bird life, and the ever-changing light of Galveston Bay. The private boat slip makes departure as easy as stepping aboard, and the outdoor spaces are purpose-built for the way people actually vacation and live at the water — with room to fish, entertain, relax, and simply take it all in. The oversized garage adds a practical island touch, providing an abudance of posabilities from an added pool, spa, outdoor living area, gameroom, etc. A clean canvas to build to suit your wishes!

Tiki Island — One of the Texas Coast's Best-Kept Secrets

Tiki Island is a small, incorporated waterfront village tucked between Galveston Bay and the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway — just minutes from Galveston Island and less than an hour from Houston. With a series of peaceful canals winding through the community, most homes here include waterfront privileges and private docks, creating a boater's paradise unlike anything else on the upper Texas Gulf Coast. The island's low-density, residential character means wide open water views, easy navigation, and a genuine sense of escape — without sacrificing proximity to Galveston's restaurants, entertainment, and amenities. Short-term rental is not allowed on Tiki Island. Rentals must be 31 days or longer.

Quality and Craftsmanship by Jimmy Garner — Tiki Island's Trusted Custom Builder

This home was built by Jimmy Garner, one of Tiki Island's most prominent and established local custom home builders, with a long track record of constructing luxury and canal-front residences throughout the community. Jimmy Garner's name is synonymous with quality on Tiki Island — a builder who knows every street, every canal, every engineering consideration, and every nuance of what it takes to build a home that performs beautifully in a coastal waterfront environment.

Unlike production builders or outside contractors unfamiliar with the island's unique demands, Jimmy Garner brings decades of local expertise to every project — from elevated foundation systems and hurricane-resistant construction to finish selections that hold up to salt air, humidity, and the rigors of coastal life. His homes are built to last, built to look exceptional, and built to serve their owners well whether as a primary residence, a seasonal retreat, or an income-producing rental property.

The result at 438 Amanda Circle is a home that reflects genuine craftsmanship at every level — thoughtfully designed, precisely executed, and maintained to a standard that makes it truly move-in ready. On an island where build quality varies widely, a Jimmy Garner home stands apart.
