Boerne Homes with a Garage Apartment

This page shows every house for sale in Boerne and Fair Oaks Ranch, ZIP codes 78006 and 78015, that the listing agent marked in the MLS as having a garage apartment: a finished living space built over or attached to a garage, sometimes called a carriage house or apartment over the garage. The list updates automatically every day.

Garage apartments are rare here. On any given day there are usually only a handful for sale, so if you are looking for one, it pays to watch this page or set up an alert so you hear about a new one the day it lists.

Garage Apartment, Casita or Guest House?

• Garage apartment: living space above or beside the garage, usually with its own entry by an outside stair. It shares a building with the garage, so it often costs less to build than a stand-alone casita and leaves more of the yard open.
• Casita or guest house: a separate building on its own. See Boerne homes with a mother-in-law suite or casita.
• Second primary suite: both suites inside the main house. See homes with two primary suites.

Why Buyers Look for a Garage Apartment

• A place for family: an adult child, college student or parent gets their own door and space a few steps from the main house.
• Guests: visitors stay comfortably without sharing the main house's bathrooms and routine.
• A home office or studio: a quiet workspace, gym or hobby room away from the house.
• Possible rental income: some owners rent a garage apartment long term. Check city zoning, HOA deed restrictions and short-term rental rules for the specific property before you count on that income.

What to Check Before You Buy

• What is really up there: "garage apartment" can mean anything from a finished bonus room to a full apartment with a kitchen, bath and laundry. Tour it in person.
• Permits and tax records: ask whether the apartment was permitted and whether its square footage is counted in the appraisal district record. It is often not included in the home's listed living area.
• Stairs and access: an outside stair is fine for a college student but may not suit an aging parent. Look at the climb and the entry.
• Utilities: find out whether it has its own HVAC and water heater, and on acreage, whether the septic system was sized for it.
• Insurance: tell your insurance agent about the living space so it is covered.
