Bulverde
Neighborhoods close to schools
Houses in the area have come a long way, evolving from oak logs and quarried stone. "Most of the homes are semi-customs, where buyers can pick one of the designs the builders planned out," Burnes remarks. The community consists of several distinct planned neighborhoods, including The Estates at Indian Springs, Bulverde Village and Cibolo Canyon. Once acres of Ashe juniper trees, the neighborhood now features well-maintained streetscapes that wind around hilly and rocky terrain. The area includes medium-sized landscaped lots and homes constructed between 2005 and 2024 in contemporary designs. Residences are built to accentuate their natural surroundings with solar panels, large picture windows and fenced backyards with inground pools. Prices can range from $389,000 for a three-bedroom to $940,000 for a 5-bedroom sprawling over 4,000 square feet. "The prices are higher than other parts of San Antonio; the median is $820,000, but you can find properties in the 300s-500s," Burnes says.
Front row seat to the Texas Valero Open
The neighborhood is next to the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa, popular for its River Bluff Water Experience. "It's not just for tourists," Burnes continues. "Locals come for day trips or date nights at the restaurants." Additionally, TPC San Antonio hosts the Texas Valero Open, a tradition since 1922 that attracts professional players competing for a grand prize.
Summer Fun at Canyon Lake
The appeal of these communities lies in their private recreational amenities, including parks, miles of trails, pools and clubhouses. Cibolo Canyon stands out with its lazy river, where locals lounge on the calm water on floaties. "It's also close to New Braunfels, Canyon Lake and the San Antonio River," Burnes continues. "The river is cool; people like to float it, and companies rent out innertubes and will take you back to your car." The community is next to the Bracken Cave Preserve, which houses over 15 million Mexican free-tailed bats and marks it as the largest bat habitat on the globe. The 8,200-acre Canyon Lake is found just 25 miles north. The lake draws locals during the summer swelter, where marinas, parks and trails accompany rocky cliffs and beaches.
STEM programs at Johnson High School
Families may be a part of the Comal Independent School District or North East ISD. Students within Comal ISD may attend Indian Springs Elementary, rated an A-plus according to Niche and is in the neighborhood. The school feeds into A-rated Pieper Ranch Middle School and Bulverde Middle School, which opened in 2024 and has not yet been rated on Niche. Students may then move on to Pieper High School, another recently built school. It opened in 2021 and earns a 6/10 on GreatSchools. In North East ISD, locals may attend A-rated Cibolo Green Elementary, also in the neighborhood, and advance to A-rated Tejeda Middle and Johnson High School, which earns an A-plus. Students at the high school level can apply for magnet programs centered on agriscience, technology, cybersecurity, and the arts.
Retail at Village at Stone Oak
Bulverde Village is convenient to several shopping centers and grocery places, including Sam's Club and Sprouts Farmers Market on Bulverde Road. Village at Stone Oak, just 2 miles away, features a mix of small boutiques and familiar brands, including Target, Home Goods, and Petco. Aside from the upscale dining in the nearby resort, Los Balito's Taco Shop on TPC Parkway is a food chain specializing in Mexican favorites. A few doors down, Angkor Bistro, serves Thai cuisine, sushi and boba. Nearby is 54th Street Scratch Grill & Bar, filled with nostalgic mementos, and Grimaldi's Pizzeria is firing up Brooklyn-style pies.
Close to U.S. Highway 281
Despite its serene location, Bulverde Village has access to U.S. Highway 281, providing a convenient route to downtown San Antonio in just 30 minutes. The thoroughfare connects to the 1604 Loop to the south and Texas 46 to the north. Additionally, the area is only 13 miles from San Antonio International Airport and 12 miles from Live Oak Medical Center.
