About 506 2nd St
Extraordinary opportunity to own a treasured piece of Comfort and Texas Hill Country history. Sitting on one of the highest points in Comfort this signature home was built in 1910 for one of Comfort's early entrepreneurs. The founder of the Comfort newspaper and a prominent local bank the original owner engaged the area's most skilled builders and stonemasons to design and build the original house and to redesign and enlarge the extensive porch and roof structure several years later. The lot itself consists of just over an acre of very level yard area with all of the original infrastructure still in regular use. With entrances on both High St. and Second St. the driveway wraps the house on two sides, providing excellent access and plenty of overflow parking. The expansive yard and panoramic views create a special charm. This uniquely designed and cared for home is just waiting for the next stewards to take charge and restore the shine to this elegant property.
