Building in Vintage Oaks

Vintage Oaks is one of the neighborhoods we’re asked about most, and one we’ve built in. It sits outside the New Braunfels city limits in Comal County, on rolling Hill Country ground with mature oaks and long views. Most homesites are one to two-plus acres.

That makes it a great place for a custom home, and a neighborhood where the details matter. The POA’s architectural committee reviews every plan, every lot needs its own septic design, and the slope and rock change from one lot to the next. We handle all of it, from the first lot walk to the final walkthrough.

If you own a lot in Vintage Oaks, or you’re choosing between lots, talk to us before you commit. We’ll walk it with you and tell you what it will take to build there.

What building in Vintage Oaks actually involves

Vintage Oaks is a planned community with real standards, built on real Hill Country ground. Each of these shapes a build.

Architectural review comes first

The Vintage Oaks POA reviews plans before construction starts: materials, height, setbacks and siting. We design to the guidelines from the start and plan the submittal into the schedule, so approval isn’t a surprise.

County, not city

Vintage Oaks sits outside New Braunfels city limits. There’s no city plan review here. Septic and floodplain permitting go through Comal County, and the POA’s review does much of the work a city would.

Aerobic septic on every lot

Lots are on septic, typically aerobic systems, permitted through Comal County. Where the system and its spray area go affects where the house can sit, so we design them together.

Central water

Homesites are served by central water rather than private wells. We confirm the tap and meter for your lot early, so it isn’t a question at the end.

Slope and rock

Much of Vintage Oaks is rolling to hilly ground over shallow limestone. Hillside lots need real foundation engineering and a driveway that works in the wet season, and rock excavation belongs in the budget from day one.

Trees and views

Mature live oaks and long Hill Country views are why people buy here. We site the home to keep the best trees and frame the view, and keep clearing to what the build actually needs.

Common questions about building in Vintage Oaks

Have you built in Vintage Oaks?

Yes. We’ve built custom homes in Vintage Oaks and know the architectural review process and the ground well.

Yes. The architectural committee reviews and approves plans before construction starts. We prepare the submittal and design to the guidelines from the start, so the review doesn’t hold up your schedule.

No. Vintage Oaks is in unincorporated Comal County, so septic and floodplain permits go through the county, and there’s no city plan review.

Septic. Lots typically use aerobic septic systems permitted through Comal County, with central water. The septic design affects where the house sits, so we plan the two together.

Yes, and we recommend it. Slope, rock and septic placement vary from lot to lot and can change what it costs to build. A walk-through before you close can save you from a surprise.
