About this property
Welcome to 185 Shimmering Shore Court, where Canyon Lake living meets “yes, everyone can come over — and no, you still don’t have to see them if you don't want to.” Set on over 5.6 wildlife-filled acres and over 200' of lake frontage, this private estate offers room to spread out, unwind, and coexist peacefully with both nature and friends & family. Inside, you’ll find 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms across 5,307 square feet — thoughtfully designed so everyone has space to relax (or retreat, depending on the day). The home has been meticulously maintained and recently upgraded with a brand-new water softener, because luxury is in the details. Pour a glass in your screened-in wine room, unwind in any of the four living areas, or indulge in your personal steam shower. Step outside to more than 1,700 square feet of patio space overlooking a sparkling pool with waterfall, fire features, jacuzzi, and a putting course ideal for golfers and enthusiastic “just-for-fun” putters alike. Meanwhile, deer and other local wildlife wander by as if they pay rent. Guests staying over? The detached guest suite lets them enjoy comfort and privacy — and allows you to maintain yours. A 3-car garage offers room for lake toys, adventure gear, or simply the things you swear you’ll use someday. Located less than an hour from both Austin and San Antonio, the home offers peaceful seclusion without sacrificing convenience. Brand-new appliances included — and the home can even be offered furnished with the right terms.

Welcome to Canyon Lake luxury — charming, effortless, and delightfully livable.

About the Area
185 Shimmering Shore Ct is located in Spring Branch, Texas, in Comal County. Comal County is one of the fastest-growing counties in the United States, anchored by New Braunfels, a city founded by German Prince Carl of Solms-Braunfels in 1845 whose heritage lives on in Wurstfest, historic Gruene, and the Comal and Guadalupe Rivers that draw millions of tubers and kayakers each summer.
The Comal River, the shortest river in Texas at just 2.5 miles, flows entirely within New Braunfels before joining the Guadalupe River. The Guadalupe River canyon through Canyon Lake creates dramatic limestone bluffs and one of the most scenic waterways in Central Texas. Canyon Lake reservoir sits in the northern part of the county.
Spring Branch had an estimated population of 260 as of 2023. The 78070 zip code has a median household income of $115,076, a median home value of $469,500, and a median age of 47.2. The average household size is 2.61 people.
San Antonio and Austin metro growth has made Comal County a premier destination for suburban buyers seeking Hill Country character with urban access. Tourism centered on the rivers, Schlitterbahn waterpark, and historic Gruene Hall, the oldest continually operating dance hall in Texas, generates significant hospitality revenue alongside a booming residential real estate market.
