Why Todd chose New Braunfels

New Braunfels is a great small town with that same kind of atmosphere. This house became part of the bakery years ago. Though the years of owning the bakery and numerous offers to stay the night at the Texas landmark, we did some remodeling and opened it up!

What makes this house unique

Staying at a Texas landmark and witness some of the pre 1900 German immigrant construction.
