Property Description
The residence spans approximately 4,591 sq ft, offering grand yet livable areas with longleaf yellow pine framing milled on-site and prized for its durability. A rare full basement further enhances the home's uniqueness.
Beyond the main residence, the estate features a historic carriage house & garage, a detached guest residence known as the Professor's House, and a wash house with an upper open-air porch, providing flexibility for a variety of uses.
The grounds are park-like, featuring mature pecan trees, some planted to commemorate family milestones, which create a canopy of shad. A thoughtfully placed pool & spa introduce modern luxury without compromising historical integrity.
Ideally located across from the Sophienburg Museum and just minutes from downtown New Braunfels, Landa Park, the Comal River, and Gruene. The estate is deeply embedded in the cultural fabric of the city and has remained in the hands of stewards who understood its importance, including descendants of the original family & a former Mayor of New Braunfels, whom undertook a careful restoration worthy of its legacy.
This is not a home you simply purchase. It is one you inherit, with the responsibility and privilege of carrying its story forward. Certain homes are built. Others are remembered.
