Description
Own a piece of New Braunfels history in the heart of downtown! This charming 2/1 Craftsman, currently operating as a successful STR, offers an incredible opportunity to own an income-producing property in one of the most walkable locations in New Braunfels. Rich with original character, the home features original oak hardwood floors, operational historic windows, built-in cabinetry in the bedrooms and bath, and even stairs leading down to the home's original root cellar. The kitchen features granite countertops, while generously sized bedrooms and an abundance of storage make the home as practical as it is charming.
Offered turnkey with furnishings and future bookings, this is an exciting opportunity for an investor, weekend-home buyer, or someone looking for an unforgettable downtown residence.
And the location is hard to beat. Step outside and walk to the best of downtown New Braunfels—Saturday mornings at the farmers market, local restaurants, coffee shops, shopping and nightlife are all nearby, with the Comal River and Schlitterbahn just a short distance away.
The sister property next door is also available for purchase, offering the rare opportunity to own two neighboring properties in the heart of downtown New Braunfels.
