Property Description
RARE NEW BRAUNFELS RETREAT featuring a successful one-story 4BR/2BA STR plus PRIVATE CASITA on 1/2 ACRE, complete with above-ground pool, massive covered porch, and LOW 1.7 tax rate--minutes from Gruene and river fun! You will be tempted to pinch yourself to make sure this oasis brimming with character is for real! Whether you are looking for a home or an investment, this is the one you should consider first. Situated right off FM 306 and FM 1103, down the road from the famous Buc-ee's, this adorable property sits on a cul-de-sac in a quiet neighborhood with no HOA and backs up to a lush 8 acre property so privacy is at a premium. Step inside to high ceilings and unique architecture that make the home both welcoming and interesting. A game room to the left could also work as a formal dining room should you need one and opens into the spacious living room with its atmospheric fireplace and view of the backyard. Gleaming wood floors and tile offer class and convenience. The dedicated country kitchen invites conversation and cooking with lots of counter space and a breakfast bar. Imagine sitting for hours chatting over coffee in the charming dining space. The primary bedroom sits separate from the secondary bedroom wing for privacy and offers a full ensuite. Spacious enough for a king bed with high ceiling, this room offers the pleasant surprise of a corner window seat that begs you to sit for hours reveling in a book and view of the incredible patio and yard. The updated bathroom -- cute enough for HGTV -- features a beautiful tile glassed in shower, double vanity and modern hardware and fixtures. The largest secondary bedroom sits off by itself so lends well to a guest room. The guest bathroom is down the hallway --Texas themed with fancy tiled walk-in shower and double vanity, leading the way to the last two bedrooms, both generously sized with nice closets. Now outside find more surprises that leave no dispute that this is a party house! The 300-square foot covered porch with its crafted raftered ceiling offers a sweeping view of the 1/2 acre lot, lush with grass and long enough to throw a football or set up soccer goals! At the very back of the lot sits the above ground pool with its deck and covered porch. The privacy of the lot can't be overstated with the acreage property behind and only trees and country view visible. A storage shed near the house itself makes up for the lack of a garage for lawn items and of course, all the toys you'd want for this big a property! Fenced off from the rest of the yard sits a detached guest house/casita with its own front entrance/gate, which offers excellent flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, a home office, or additional rental income. This 384 square foot space awash with natural light feels bigger than it is and offers tiny house living in a big way. Updated and cozy, walk into a living and dining space. A kitchenette in the corner with sink, fridge, counter space and stove leaves nothing to be desired and you even can do laundry here with a washer tucked under the stairs. The bathroom is also fully outfitted with walk-in shower, sink and toilet. Upstairs is a spacious bedroom space with peaked ceiling. Behind this guest house sits another storage area for any other items you want out of the weather. While this package would be a true haven no matter where it was -- this one has a location that cannot be beat! Eight minutes from world famous historic downtown Gruene and the recreation along the river in New Braunfels is ideal -- far enough away to insulate from the bustle of tourism and yet just a hop and skip away from FUN! Add in 30 minutes from Canyon Lake activities, the highly rated Comal ISD schools, and the incredibly low 1.7 property tax rate and you will find yourself asking ... why say no to this recipe for success? Whether you are a owner occupant or investor a deal like this is a no-brainer.
