About This Home

As of May 2023

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 4 bedrooms, 3 full and 2 half baths as well as a formal library, drawing room, sitting 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.
