Rarely does a property of this character become available in the heart of Downtown New Braunfels. Set on more than half an acre, this distinctive 1926 residence blends timeless charm with modern improvements, generous living spaces, and an exceptional location. A welcoming wraparound porch opens to expansive interiors featuring hardwood floors, vintage details, built-ins, French doors, and multiple living and entertaining spaces. The kitchen has been opened up with the installation of a steel LVL beam, creating a more modern, spacious layout. The kitchen remodel is currently in progress, giving the next owner the opportunity to complete the space to their own taste and add a personal touch. Existing features include a six-burner gas range with griddle and double ovens, an ice maker, and workspace. Recent improvements include a new roof and gutters, with the roof underlayment replaced with shiplap, removal of remaining knob-and-tube wiring, spray-foam attic insulation, a new basement sump pump, updated lighting, refreshed drywall and texture throughout multiple rooms, and updated bathroom flooring and fixtures. The main-level primary suite offers dual bathrooms and dual walk-in closets, while spacious secondary rooms can serve as bedrooms, offices, media rooms, or guest spaces. A private one-bedroom, one-bath garage apartment includes its own living area and renovated kitchen with butcher-block counters, an oven, and a washer/dryer combination. The grounds are equally impressive, highlighted by a private swimming pool and spa, covered outdoor living areas, treehouse, mature landscaping, and a substantial stone privacy wall. The oversized lot also includes a three-car garage, carport, workshop, original barn, basement, and attic and storage space. With its expansive lot, private pool, versatile guest accommodations, extensive recent improvements, and highly desirable Downtown location, this one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect opportunity to make it your own.
