Custom Home Builder in New Braunfels, TX
Texas Highlands Custom Homes & Remodel builds custom homes in New Braunfels, where German heritage, the Guadalupe and Comal rivers, and steady growth between San Antonio and Austin shape what gets built here. Lots range from established in-town streets to riverfront properties to newer acreage developments on the edges of town, and each one calls for a plan built around the specific site. Every project runs through one team and one fixed price, from the first design conversation to the final walkthrough.
Building Across New Braunfels
New Braunfels covers a lot of ground, from the historic downtown and Gruene neighborhoods to lake and river access near Canyon Lake, out to acreage developments like Vintage Oaks and Mystic Shores. Texas Highlands Custom Homes & Remodel designs each home for its specific lot rather than reusing a stock plan, so an in-town build fits its streetscape and a riverfront or acreage build makes the most of the land, the views, and the way the owners want to live.
Riverfront and Lot-Specific Design
Properties along the Guadalupe or Comal rivers, or on Canyon Lake, come with their own considerations. Floodplain requirements, grade, access, and how to orient the home for views and privacy all shape the design. The team walks the land first, understands what the lot allows, and plans the home around those realities instead of fighting them.

Comal County Permitting and Site Work
New Braunfels is largely in Comal County, with some neighborhoods crossing into Guadalupe or Hays, and each has its own permitting process. Acreage lots outside city limits often need well and septic design, longer utility runs, and county permits rather than city ones. Texas Highlands Custom Homes & Remodel handles the paperwork and coordinates the infrastructure as part of the plan, confirming what applies to a specific address before construction begins.
How Each Project Runs
Pricing is settled before construction starts. The proposal is detailed, and the number agreed on is the number that holds. Each build is led by an in-house team rather than handed off, which keeps standards and communication consistent from the first design meeting to the final walkthrough. Homeowners see the home through selections and 3D renderings before it is built, then get regular updates as construction progresses.
Other Areas the Team Builds
Along with New Braunfels, Texas Highlands Custom Homes & Remodel builds custom homes in Bulverde, Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch, Comfort, Kerrville, Fredericksburg, Bandera, and the greater San Antonio area, along with guest houses and casitas on many of these properties.
New Braunfels Custom Home Questions
Do you build on riverfront or lake lots?
Yes. The team plans for floodplain requirements, grade, and views, and designs the home to make the most of a riverfront or lakefront property.
Can you build in Vintage Oaks or other gated communities?
Yes. The team works within architectural guidelines and handles the design review and approvals each community requires.
Will my New Braunfels property need a well and septic?
It depends on the location. Lots inside city limits usually tie into municipal utilities; acreage outside town often needs a well, septic, or both, and that infrastructure is planned as part of the build.
Who handles permitting in New Braunfels?
Texas Highlands Custom Homes & Remodel manages the permits and inspections each project requires and confirms which jurisdiction and rules apply to the specific address.
Do I bring my own plans, or do you design the home?
Either works. Existing plans are welcome, or the team can guide the design and 3D renderings before construction begins.
