Property Description
Nestled in the heart of New Braunfels, 311 E Torrey Street is a charming blend of historic character, modern comfort, and the relaxed Hill Country lifestyle that makes downtown living so special. This beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home invites you to slow down, settle in, and enjoy everything that makes New Braunfels one of Texas' most beloved communities. From the moment you arrive, the home's vintage charm and welcoming atmosphere stand out. Inside, thoughtfully preserved details including salvaged hardwood floors, a classic clawfoot tub, and warm architectural touches create a space filled with personality and timeless character. Natural light pours through the updated windows, while tasteful renovations and energy-efficient mini splits provide the comfort and convenience today's buyers are looking for. Life here is about more than just the home itself - it's about the lifestyle that comes with the location. Imagine starting your mornings with coffee on the back porch while deer quietly wander nearby, then hopping on a golf cart or bike to grab brunch downtown, spend the afternoon floating the river, or enjoy live music and local festivals just minutes away. Evenings can be spent soaking in the brand-new hot tub, meeting friends in Gruene for dinner and dancing, or taking a sunset stroll through Landa Park. The backyard offers a private retreat with cozy entertaining spaces perfect for hosting family and friends, grilling on warm summer nights, or simply enjoying the peaceful Hill Country surroundings. With no HOA and a flexible layout, the home offers the freedom to truly make the space your own. Adding even more versatility, the property is currently zoned M-1 Light Industrial - a designation that allows for a wide variety of potential uses and opportunities. The property also benefits from a Special Use Permit approved by the city allowing for short-term rental usage, offering added flexibility for future owners while still maintaining the charm and feel of a residential downtown property. Located just minutes from Downtown New Braunfels, Historic Gruene, Schlitterbahn Waterpark New Braunfels, the Comal and Guadalupe Rivers, local restaurants, boutique shopping, coffee shops, farmers markets, and year-round community events, this home places you right in the center of a vibrant yet laid-back lifestyle that people travel from all over to experience. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a weekend escape, or a home filled with charm and walkable convenience, 311 E Torrey Street offers a rare opportunity to experience the very best of downtown New Braunfels living. Sellers are excited to RETIRE looking to hand over the business to the new owner, all offers seriously considered!!!
