Why they chose this property
We (Greg and Kathleen) feel very blessed to live here! Our neighborhood is a quiet niche very near the Guadalupe River. We named our place River Haven because it has never flooded even though we are so close to the river. There is no public access to the Guadalupe in our neighborhood, which is common to private property areas in our city and county (Comal), however, we are half a mile to the closest public access and 1 mile to Gruene Hall in the heart of Gruene, Texas.
What makes this property unique
Our property is almost an acre in size, just outside the New Braunfels city limits, but only 1 mile from Gruene Hall! The location is close to things we enjoy....walks into Gruene, walks in Landa Park and our neighborhood, sitting by the river, restaurants, live music, church, shopping and grandchildren! We enjoy lots of green grass, trees and wildlife here.
