General Description
minimizeThis historic home is situated on Sophienburg Hill, the birthplace of New Braunfels. It offers historic significance and is a short distance from Downtown and the Comal River. Close to Krause's Cafe, Landa Park & Golf Course, and numerous museums and music venues. It is ready to be lovingly restored and updated by its new owners. There is so much potential for a piece of irreplaceable Texas history. The 3rd bedroom and adjacent bath have been remediated following the freeze. The other rooms have some original shiplap, cabinetry, and hardwood floors. This lot backs up to an alley, which allows back door access and is not common to the area. The home is being sold AS IS and is an estate listing.
