Ed's Opinion of Value

$231,447 Ed's Estimate: $723,580 $2,400,000
Lowest Comp Recommended List: $702,000 to $745,000 Highest Comp
After reviewing 3 recent transactions in FARM, I estimate this property's value at $723,580. A competitive list price for this home right now would fall in the $702,000 to $745,000 range. This home's position in the current FARM market: below the only comparable home currently on the market among comparable properties. The 1,709 sqft size difference versus comparable sales is reflected in the adjusted values. At 49 years older than typical comps, the 1893 build date influences the valuation. The active market in FARM includes 1 comparable homes priced from $2,400,000 to $2,400,000. Prices in 78155 have risen 8.3% over the last 6 months. A similar home at 216 E Cedar ST, Seguin TX 78155 carries an adjusted comparable value of $453,180, providing a strong data point. With 3 comparable sales in FARM, this estimate carries a reasonable degree of confidence. This estimate is based entirely on market data. An in person evaluation could refine it further.

About This Property

Located within walking distance to Downtown Seguin, Sonka Estate is an exquisite French Country Estate built in 1893 by Joseph Sonka, a local entrepreneur, as his personal residence.
The main house consists of 5 bedrooms,  3 full and 2 half baths as well as a formal library, drawing room and living and dining spaces. The multi-room kitchen recently went through a complete renovation and has an original fireplace and sitting area, Jenn Air and Bosch appliances and a custom-made local Pecan Kitchen Island. Connected to the kitchen is an enclosed steel framed glass breakfast or reading porch overlooking the expansive back yard and gardens. High ceilings, hard wood floors and natural light run throughout the house with a relaxing covered balcony on the second level. 

Downstairs, below street level, is a lockable walk-in Wine Cellar and separate Dining Space with a catering room for storage and prep-space.

The detached late 1800's Carriage House, upon finish out, could provide for additional duplex living space or act as an artist studio or workshop. A small outdoor bar and garden greenhouse as well as a large seated area with outdoor brick fireplace provide for full outdoor living amenities. 

The property rests on almost two acres which includes a separate commercial lot adjacent the main estate. Zoned Residential and Commercial, the House would make an incredible small hotel or B&B or event space as it's been formerly, or simply continuing as a beautiful country home, just an hour from Austin and half an hour from San Antonio.
