Where We Got Our Inspiration
The award-winning house was inspired by Folk Victorian homes in New Braunfels, TX, built from the mid-1800s into the early 1900s.
Project Story
Enamored by the breathtaking landscapes of the Texas Hill Country, our clients knew they wanted to retire there. After securing a unique wooded property in Wimberley, they contacted us to design a home that would accommodate their desire to entertain family and friends.
Located on a small lot in a Traditional Neighborhood Development in New Braunfels, this award-winning house recalls similar Folk Victorian houses in town that were built from the mid-1800s into the early 1900s.
The main body of the house is organized in a 5-bay center hall arrangement. The 1-story parts of the house were designed to appear as if they had been added to the rear of the main house over a period of time.
The house is 2,900 square feet, but appears larger because of the double height front porch. The 20’ tall Douglas Fir porch posts were shipped by railcar from Canada.
