Melissa Laufer Real Estate debuts a historic 1936 E.B. Flowers masterpiece in New Braunfels. This "livable art" estate features museum-grade Isaac Maxwell lighting, private island access, and rare R-2 zoning, offering a unique legacy investment in the heart of Landa Park Estates.
-- Melissa Laufer of Melissa Laufer Real Estate has officially listed one of the most historically significant and architecturally rare properties in Central Texas. Located at 1049 Allen, New Braunfels, TX 78130, this 1936 masterpiece, designed by legendary San Antonio architect E.B. Flowers, offers a lifestyle of "livable art" combined with the extreme rarity of private island access in the heart of the city’s most sought-after neighborhood, Landa Park Estates.
A Convergence of History and Artistry
Crafted during an era of uncompromising intention, the estate is the result of a collaboration between Flowers and master craftsman Guenther Hoverstadt. The home is a tactile narrative of 20th-century design, featuring:
- Artisan Lighting: Museum-grade custom installations by acclaimed artists Isaac Maxwell and Martha Mood, including a full-length handcrafted ceramic installation along the back patio.
- Historic Textures: Original herringbone parquet flooring, Saltillo tile, and reclaimed beams sourced from an early-1800s barn.
- Unique Verticality: A split-level primary suite designed as a "treetop sanctuary" and an original window roof hatch providing a direct connection to the rooftop.
Unrivaled Location and Investment Potential
Situated on one of the largest parcels in Landa Park Estates, the property is uniquely zoned R-2, offering expansive possibilities for future development or the creation of a massive custom legacy estate. The inclusion of private island access grants owners a rare, direct connection to the natural beauty and springs of the Comal River area, a feature virtually non-existent in modern listings.
"This isn't just a home; it's a living piece of New Braunfels history that has been preserved with incredible soul," says Melissa Laufer, Owner of Melissa Laufer Real Estate. "Between the artistic pedigree of the Maxwell lighting and the raw potential of the R-2 zoning on such a massive lot, this is a legacy acquisition for the right buyer."
