About this property
Charming Cottage on Rare Double Lot with Studio/Workshop in the Heart of Boerne. A rare opportunity in historic Boerne, this charming cottage-style home sits on an oversized 0.57-acre double lot, offering privacy, flexibility, and exceptional potential just a short stroll from the shops, restaurants, and art scene of Boerne Main Street. One of the most valuable features of this property is the separate, buildable second lot (.203 acres), creating endless possibilities-build a guesthouse, second residence, income-producing rental, or preserve the extra space for a private park-like setting beneath beautiful heritage and live oaks. The property also includes a 1000sq ft two car garage to include 500 sq ft climate-controlled studio ideal for artists, makers, remote professionals, or hobbyists. With ample workspace and privacy from the main home, it's perfectly suited for a creative studio, workshop, home business, or future guest quarters. Inside, the renovated cottage blends warmth and modern design with abundant natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the lush backyard. The open-concept living, dining, and chef's kitchen creates an inviting space for entertainment, featuring a large island with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, designer lighting, and energy-efficient windows. The owner's suite provides a peaceful retreat with a luxurious bath and spacious walk-in closet. Outdoors, enjoy the serenity of the detached screened cedar gazebo and hot tub retreat, surrounded by native landscaping and mature oaks. Additional highlights include RV parking, two storage sheds, lean-to storage, and an oversized detached two-car garage. Major improvements include HVAC, electrical panel, sewer lines, and exterior paint (2022-2024), roof (2021), and RO water filtration system. With city approvals already in place for flexible use, this one-of-a-kind property offers the rare ability to live, create, expand, or invest-all within walking distance of downtown Boerne.

Texas
Living in Texas means access to four of the nation’s most dynamic metro economies — Dallas–Fort Worth’s corporate and logistics powerhouse, Houston’s global energy and medical hub, Austin’s tech-driven and culturally iconic Live Music Capital of the World, and San Antonio’s historic yet steadily expanding military and healthcare center. The state blends economic scale with cultural significance, rooted in independence, entrepreneurship, and a strong sense of place — from Friday night football to world-renowned barbecue and music festivals. For homebuyers, Texas offers comparatively attainable housing, no personal income tax, and master-planned communities built around space and convenience; for investors, continued population growth, business relocation, and diversified industries create sustained demand across urban cores, suburbs, and emerging secondary markets.
