BEST LOCATION in downtown New Braunfels! By Market Plaza and minutes from the town circle, city gazebo, Comal River, shops, nightlife, and Schlitterbahn. Guests will love walking to one of the dozens of restaurants, bars, and cafes that are less than one mile away. Rest easy in the NEW KING MATTRESS in the primary suite.
______________________________

Be charmed by this one-of-a-kind piece of New Braunfels history, dating back to the early German settlers. The home boasts original features, such as the 1800s Fachwerk (traditional infilled brickwork) in the sunroom and additions through the decades. Take in the delightful collection of antiques, unique decor, and the perfectly imperfect layout that delivers the character you won't find in modern homes. FUN FACT: this home was the 16th house in the city to have electricity! See the property history below.

Casual open living area with a wood-burning stove, flatscreen television, and a fully stocked kitchen that the entire group can gather in to prepare and enjoy a meal. Full-sized appliances with all the essentials and even some extras, like a coffee station with a drip coffee maker, Keurig, and a French press.

Perfect basecamp for your authentic German-inspired New Braunfels or Texas Hill Country adventure! You can't beat the convenience of walking to restaurants, bars, Wurstfest, or fall festivals.

Professionally managed by a highly qualified, locally owned Short-Term Rental property management company. New Braunfels STR-092.

PROPERTY HISTORY:

Embrace the living legacy of this perfectly imperfect home's rich history. One of the original German family homesteads, this property dates back to the 1800s and is conveniently located by Market Plaza (the location of settlers' tent shows to buy, sell, and trade produce and wares). Market Plaza is a 0.7-acre park with trees, two benches, and a drinking fountain, and it is the ideal spot to walk your dog or watch the roaming neighborhood deer.

The current owner's connection to the property dates back over 40 years. Their love for New Braunfels and passion for its German roots are evident throughout the home.

Cute house in great location
This house is in a great location- walking distance to cute New Braunfels downtown area with shops and dining. Also walking distance to river tubing. The house is roomy and fit our family of four comfortably. Our only suggestions for improvement are adding more blankets for the beds and the master bath needs a toilet paper holder.

Great stay for thanksgiving!
We stayed in this lovely house to visit family for the holiday. It had a quirky layout with plenty of space and nooks for people to hang out in. It was walking distance to everything we needed, like naeglin’s bakery. Only wish there were some extra warm blankets as New Braunfels gets chilly in November.

Perfect getaway
We had six people including 2 kids. The setup of the house was perfect and spacious enough for everyone. The extra sink in the wash room worked out well so everyone could get ready at the same time. Great quiet location and love seeing the deer in the evening. The house was very clean and ample items in the kitchen. Would highly recommend for your stay!
