The Modern Farmhouse Cottage Style was inspired by a small cottage designed by Dibello Architects in the same neighborhood.
Our clients owned a small home on a lot in Landa Park Estates in New Braunfels and would visit on weekends to enjoy Comal Springs. They loved the location, but they desired a new home that could comfortably accommodate overnight guests.
They enlisted Dibello Architects for the new house because they were intrigued by a small cottage that Dale Dibello designed for a very challenging 25’-wide lot in the same neighborhood.
To help our client gain a larger usable footprint than the current-day Zoning Ordinance would allow within their small lot, we helped them request a building-line setback variance from the City.
The house we designed for them is a light-filled Modern Farmhouse Style cottage with space for entertaining and plenty of space for overnight guests.
