6 New Braunfels Neighborhoods That Should Be on Your Radar

As New Braunfels, Texas has continued to evolve and diversify (recently ranking as the second fastest growing city in the country!), so has its local neighborhood selection. From cozy cottages to waterfront estates, we’re willing to reckon our little “river city” has something for pretty much anyone. 

But just which neighborhoods are really making strides in New Braunfels’ explosive market? Below are several neighborhoods, both new and established, that seem to be gaining popularity among buyers.

226 Legacy Hills: River Chase (SOLD)

1. River Chase

By far the most popular community on our list, River Chase (located several miles north of New Braunfels proper) boasts that rustic sort of elegance Hill Country buyers love. Besides beautiful homes and an idyllic location, this neighborhood offers residents a community clubhouse, swimming pools, sports courts, and walking paths. But what really sets River Chase apart? The neighborhood preserves a 58-acre community park (aptly named “River Park”) that provides residents with private access to the Guadalupe River. Homes for sale in River Chase generally start in the mid-$300,000s and go up to about $1 Million.
