About This Home
Nestled on 1.8 beautifully maintained acres along the Guadalupe River near Gruene, this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bath custom home offers a rare blend of luxury, privacy, and natural beauty. Surrounded by towering mature trees and lush, manicured grounds, the property features a thriving garden, expansive green space, and direct river access with a stunning oversized composite Trex deck designed for year-round enjoyment.
Inside, designer-quality finishes shine throughout, highlighted by rich hardwood flooring, an open-concept layout, and a gourmet kitchen with custom cabinetry, oversized island, and premium details. The elegant German schmear brick accents add timeless character, while large windows frame picturesque views of the surrounding landscape.
The primary suite offers a spa-like retreat with a luxurious bath and oversized walk-in closet. Thoughtful features include an exterior cargo elevator for effortless transport of groceries, supplies, and entertaining essentials, as well as extensive covered outdoor living areas beneath the home.
Whether you're relaxing on the riverfront deck, tending the beautifully maintained garden, entertaining guests under the canopy of majestic trees, or simply enjoying the peaceful setting, this one-of-a-kind property delivers the ultimate Hill Country lifestyle just minutes from Gruene, shopping, dining, and all that New Braunfels has to offer. No carpet, premium finishes throughout, and unmatched outdoor amenities make this riverfront retreat truly extraordinary.
The Guadalupe River views from 1238 Sleepy Hollow Lane in New Braunfels command your attention the moment the sun begins its descent toward the Hill Country horizon. This 2,052 square foot home sits on 1.8585 acres along the water in the New Braunfels subdivision, where the layout transforms those golden hours into something unforgettable.
The open floorplan moves naturally from the gourmet kitchen with its oversized island through to the composite Trex deck that overlooks the river. That kitchen island becomes command central during gatherings. The cooktop, premium refrigerator, and generous pantry keep you prepared while guests settle into conversation on the deck. The hardwood and tile flooring throughout eliminates carpet entirely, making cleanup effortless when the party extends into the evening.
This is where the house earns its keep. The deck stretches across the property with mature trees creating a natural canopy above. You're watching the light shift from gold to amber while entertaining, the river providing that constant visual anchor. The primary suite sits positioned to capture those same views, a quiet counterpoint to the social spaces. Two additional bedrooms and two full baths accommodate guests who'll want to stay longer than planned.
Built in 2017, the home features German schmear brick accents and wood siding that age well in the Texas climate. An exterior cargo elevator handles the practical side of entertaining - groceries, supplies, and entertaining essentials travel directly to the deck level. The covered outdoor areas beneath the home provide shelter for overflow seating and storage.
From Sleepy Hollow Lane, Gruene is minutes away for dinner and live music. Downtown New Braunfels sits equally close for shopping and dining. The New Braunfels ISD zone includes Lamar Elementary, Oakrun Middle, and New Braunfels High School. The property priced at $2.10M translates to $1,023 per square foot for direct river access with this level of outdoor entertainment infrastructure already in place.
What matters here is the gathering itself. The view is the backdrop, but the memories happen on that deck, in that kitchen, under those trees as the river slides past below.
