DESCRIPTION

This majestic residence, completely renovated in 2016, is nestled on nearly an acre beneath towering mature trees. The original homestead of Charles Altgelt was taken down to the studs and a farmhouse from Iowa was added to the rear of home preserving Comfort’s longstanding heritage. A custom-cut butter block rock wall and fencing, constructed in 2022, create striking curb appeal and set the tone for what lies beyond.

​

Past the electric gate and two pedestrian iron gates, you'll discover a private compound featuring the main residence, detached guest quarters, temperature-controlled storage rooms and a versatile flex space ideal for a gym or art studio. The home was thoughtfully renovated to blend historic character with modern comfort, and no detail was overlooked. Nearly every element was updated during the renovation, including walls, plumbing, electrical, windows, ceiling treatments, light fixtures, doors, and flooring.

​

Spray foam insulation was added for maximum efficiency, and a new metal roof was installed in 2025. Since the original remodel, the water heater, air conditioners and furnaces have also been replaced and a water softener was added. While the aesthetic reflects the charm of a historic home, nearly every component has been updated or replaced.

Inside, the home showcases exceptional craftsmanship, highlighted by a stunning lodge-style wood-burning fireplace anchoring the main living and dining area. Multiple exterior access points lead to inviting covered porches reminiscent of the home’s original era. The versatile floor plan offers dual living and dining areas, along with a charming parlor.

The island kitchen is designed for both functionality and style, featuring a butcher block island, gas cooking, dual ovens, abundant workspace, and custom cabinetry. Wraparound windows and transoms fill the home with natural light, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout.

​

The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level and includes a private exterior entry, spacious bedroom and spa-inspired bath complete with a seamless glass shower and dual vanities. Also on the main level is a generous guest suite and a partial bath.

​

Upstairs, a third bedroom features an en-suite bath and ample space for a king-sized bed or multiple beds - making it ideal for hosting guests. This flexible space can easily adapt to suit a variety of needs.

​

Outdoor living offers abundant options, from relaxing in rocking chairs on the front porch to entertaining on the oversized back patio. A charming pathway leads to the detached one-bedroom, one-bath guest quarters, currently utilized as a home office. This space features dual entrances, one of which provides access to three climate-controlled storage rooms totaling approximately 500 sq.ft. - perfect for seasonal décor and equipment.

​

An additional air-conditioned flex space includes a pergola sitting area and a balcony overlooking the grounds. This exceptional property offers the very best of Hill Country living, all within walking distance of downtown Comfort’s boutique shopping and local dining.
