About this property

Historic 1930s German rock home in the heart of New Braunfels, just one block from the Comal River and across from Schlitterbahn Waterpark. Situated on a quarter-acre corner lot at Basel and Union Avenue, this property places you within walking and biking distance to downtown restaurants, shopping, river recreation, and local entertainment. Built with the thick native stone walls these homes are known for, the craftsmanship and character are immediately apparent from the moment you arrive. A covered front porch, porte cochere, original stone fencing, wavy glass windows, exposed interior rock walls, original hardwood floors, built-in cabinets, and a cellar all speak to the home’s history and authenticity. Inside, natural light pours through the windows and highlights the warmth of the wood floors and original architectural details. The kitchen showcases exposed stone walls and rustic beams that give the space a distinctly old-world feel rarely found today. Upstairs, the long half-story room offers flexibility for additional sleeping space, an office, studio, playroom, or second living area. The detached 700-square-foot garage-style building continues the same striking stone exterior and offers excellent space for storage, hobbies, workshop use, or future possibilities. Zoned R-2 by the City of New Braunfels, the property may allow for an additional accessory dwelling unit with city approval. Properties with this level of historic character, walkability, and future potential rarely become available in such a central New Braunfels location.
