About this home
A true one-in-a-million offering, this extraordinary estate is a living piece of New Braunfels history, quietly set within one of the city's most exclusive and sought-after enclaves, Landa Park Estates. Designed in 1936 by renowned architect E.B. Flowers and master craftsman Guenther Hoverstadt, the residence stands as a testament to a time when homes were crafted with intention, artistry, and permanence. Positioned on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood and zoned R-2, the property offers a remarkably rare combination of historic significance, architectural pedigree, and future potential. Whether thoughtfully restored to its original grandeur or re-imagined into a custom legacy estate, the possibilities here are as expansive as the land itself. Adding to its exclusivity, the property includes private island access, a coveted and rarely available feature that offers a unique connection to the natural beauty and lifestyle surrounding Landa Park. Inside, the home unfolds as a series of soulful, light-filled spaces, each layered with story and craftsmanship. Original herringbone parquet flooring, Saltillo tile, and exposed brick walls anchor the home in warmth and authenticity, while soaring ceilings and walls of windows invite natural light throughout the day. Reclaimed beams sourced from an early-1800s barn introduce depth and historic texture, seamlessly blending eras of craftsmanship into one cohesive narrative. Lighting throughout the home is a curated experience in itself, featuring custom installations by acclaimed artists Isaac Maxwell and Martha Mood. From statement interior fixtures to handcrafted ceramic lighting that runs the full length of the back patio, each piece adds warmth, artistry, and a museum-level presence rarely found in residential design. Architectural details abound at every turn. Original skeleton key hardware on every door, thoughtfully integrated built-ins and storage niches, and a graceful spiral staircase that creates a sculptural ascent through the home. The split-level primary suite offers a tranquil retreat nestled among the treetops, evoking the feeling of a refined treehouse sanctuary, while an original window roof hatch creates a rare vertical connection from the main living spaces, through the primary suite, and onto the rooftop. Outdoors, a charming penny tile walkway welcomes guests to the front of the home, setting the tone for what lies within, while the expansive grounds offer privacy, scale, and opportunity rarely available in such a storied neighborhood. This is not simply a home, it is a legacy. A rare opportunity to own, preserve, or re-envision one of New Braunfels' most remarkable historic estates, in a location whose character, exclusivity, and natural beauty will forever remain timeless.
