About 123 S Academy Avenue
Own a piece of New Braunfels history in the heart of downtown! Built in the 1850s, this charming duplex features two identical 1/1 units, both currently operating as STRs. Completely rehabbed in 2021 by local contractor Ben Davis, every part of this historic property was thoughtfully touched while preserving its original character with wood walls and ceilings. Each unit features quartz countertops, gas cooking, and abundant kitchen storage. A metal roof, modern updates, and thoughtful finishes make this historic property ready for its next chapter. Offered turnkey with furnishings and future bookings included. Walk to downtown restaurants, shopping, the Saturday farmers market, the rivers, and more, with Schlitterbahn just a short distance away. The sister property next door at 147 S Academy is also available, creating a rare opportunity to own neighboring STR properties in the heart of downtown New Braunfels.
