Custom Home Builder in New Braunfels,Texas
Custom homes between the Comal and Guadalupe rivers — building since 1992.

New Braunfels is one of Texas’s fastest-growing cities — a German-founded Comal County town (1845, Prince Carl of Solms-Braunfels) at the confluence of the Comal and Guadalupe rivers, famous for tubing, Wurstfest, and the Gruene Historic District with Gruene Hall, the oldest continuously operating dance hall in Texas. We’ve built in the New Braunfels area, and our family’s ties here run deeper than most builders’.
“We’ve worked with different developers throughout the city and surrounding counties—Kendall, Comal, Guadalupe, and now Llano. Because of our tenure, credit, and experience, we’ve had no trouble being approved as a qualified builder in those areas.”

Why build in New Braunfels
New Braunfels rewards homeowners who want river-country living with real amenities — established neighborhoods, riverfront and view properties, and new acreage on the growing edges, all between San Antonio and Austin. As a fully custom builder, we design each home around its site and how its owners live, with the craftsmanship that’s earned more Parade of Homes awards than any builder in San Antonio.
