The Guadalupe River defines this 0.73-acre riverfront parcel in New Braunfels, New Braunfels. This is land where the water is the primary asset - crystal-clear depths that support tubing, kayaking, fishing, and swimming directly from your property line. The river's presence isn't theoretical here; it's immediate, usable, and permanent.
The horizon stretches across rolling terrain anchored by native pecan and oak trees that have stood for decades. A 360 square foot fully powered outdoor bar sits beneath these canopies, surrounded by three terraced grassy areas lined with dry-stacked limestone salvaged from Devil's Backbone. This isn't manicured landscaping - it's raw land shaped for function and entertaining. Cypress trees tower along the riverfront, creating natural corridors for shade and privacy. Two RV spots are already developed and ready for use, meaning the infrastructure for a multi-generational gathering space already exists.
The property's practical foundation is solid. A new well installed in February 2025 provides full water operations independent of municipal systems. Steel frame front gate and asphalt driveway establish clear entry. The land sits within New Braunfels ISD, serving students through Carl Schurz Elementary, Oakrun Middle School, and New Braunfels High School. The location offers genuine proximity to town amenities - Koozie's Icehouse is within walking distance for live music and food - while maintaining that essential separation from suburban density.
This parcel represents the rarest Austin-area asset: riverfront land in an established community with development-ready infrastructure. At $850,000, the value sits in the land itself and what it enables. Owner financing is available, which suggests flexibility for serious buyers. The listing has absorbed market time (327 days), but that reflects the specificity of the offer, not the quality of the position. This property demands an owner who understands that the river, the sky, and the freedom to build something unconventional on this terrain are the actual purchase.
