Rare Guadalupe River frontage spanning 104.6 feet defines this exceptional 1.019-acre mixed-use parcel at 1242 Ervendberg Ave in New Braunfels, where level terrain and improved shoreline create one of the Hill Country's most buildable riverfront homesites. Located less than one mile from Historic Gruene in Comal County ZIP 78130, this property combines direct water access with the structural advantages that separate truly development-ready land from typical river parcels.
The concrete retaining wall already installed along the shoreline eliminates the major site work that plagues most waterfront properties. The land slopes gently from the road to the Guadalupe River, offering rare usability without requiring extensive grading or engineering complications. Mature shade trees frame the property in natural landscaping, creating parklike setting that feels both private and inviting. This combination of open build space, established trees, and river views provides the ideal foundation for a custom home, vacation retreat, or investment property.
The Guadalupe River itself delivers year-round recreation. Kayaking, fishing, tubing, and swimming are accessible directly from your property line. The river corridor attracts both serious outdoor enthusiasts and casual weekend visitors, making this location attractive to hospitality ventures, recreational rental models, or personal retreat use.
Location stacks advantages without compromising tranquility. Gruene Hall and its surrounding restaurants, boutique shops, and live music venues sit minutes away via local roads. River outfitters and tubing launch points cluster nearby. Downtown New Braunfels offers essential services and amenities. Interstate 35 access connects you to San Antonio, Austin, and regional employment centers in manageable drive times. The property captures the recreational energy of Gruene's tourism economy while maintaining genuine river peace.
Waterfront properties offering this precise combination of substantial frontage, genuinely level terrain, improved shoreline infrastructure, mature native trees, and walkable proximity to Gruene have become increasingly scarce. Developers and individual builders recognize that 1.019 acres of Guadalupe River land with minimal site preparation already completed represents genuine investment value. The improved shoreline means you avoid costly retrofitting. The level grade means construction timelines stay predictable. The established vegetation means your property has character from day one, not years down the line.
This is legitimate riverfront land that responds to what buyers actually need: buildable terrain, water access, visual privacy, and location convenience. The Guadalupe River corridor continues attracting serious money and serious development interest. Parcels offering this combination of practical advantages and scenic position define long-term Hill Country value.
