Cross Mountain gives a blend of natural views with urban convenience

Bordering Leon Springs and Interstate 10, the rolling landscape of Cross Mountain covers two nature parks and several subdivisions, northwest of Downtown San Antonio. It’s across the highway from upscale living at The Dominion, a well-known gated community. “Cross Mountain is in the heart of Texas Hill Country. It’s close to the city, and less than 3 miles from Fiesta Texas and shopping at The Rim,” says Phillip Lopez, Realtor/leader of the Lopez Group with Real Broker. “There are several spacious communities and lots of acreage-type properties. Many of the neighborhoods don’t have an HOA.” Some subdivisions in the area include Cresta Bella, Terra Falls, Stonewall Ranch, Steeplebrook, Cross Mountain Ranch, Walnut Pass, Crownridge and parts of Leon Springs.

Lopez explains that Leon Springs has a lot of traditional Hill Country homes, typically ranch-style houses on large lots. The average price point for homes in Leon Springs is $490,000. He adds, “Some of the properties have great views overlooking the Hill Country.” The price point for homes in Cross Mountain is higher, with recent closing sale prices ranging from $400,000 for a single-story, stone New Traditional Tudor with 2,300 square feet of living space in the Walnut Pass subdivision, to $2.3 million for an estate-like property with 8,900 square feet of living space in the Crownridge subdivision.

“Walnut Pass offers an attractive opportunity to homebuyers for affordable housing within proximity to some of San Antonio’s most affluent neighborhoods, and access to Northside Independent schools known for their commitment to academic excellence,” says Heather Hart, Realtor with JPAR. “It appeals to educated professionals seeking a blend of suburban tranquility and career opportunities, since it offers convenient access to both Boerne and San Antonio.” She explains that homes in the community are priced approximately in the $375,000 to $490,000 range, and follow a traditional architectural style with stone, brick and cement siding. The neighborhood has recreational amenities, including a park and basketball court, further enhancing its appeal to families seeking community involvement.
