A charming enclave north of downtown San Antonio
Live oaks stretch their branches out over the streets in the San Antonio enclave of Terrell Hills. This city is full of Southern charm with Southwest flair in a location that makes it highly desirable for homebuyers. "The location is the main draw. It's almost smack dab in the middle of the city, but not considered downtown," says Robert Elder, a Realtor with Phyllis Browning Co., who has sold homes in the area. "It's very close to the airport. It's close to the zoo and children's museum. There's a ton of stuff to do." Just north of downtown, residents here have easy access to everything San Antonio offers while enjoying the comfort of a serene suburban neighborhood.
Sprawling Spanish-style estates and ranch-style homes
Terrell Hills is a residential city with tree-lined streets home to several types of houses. "There's a broad stroke of styles in Terrell Hills.

Colonial Revival and Italian Renaissance homes with symmetrical facades are commonly found on the city's west side. Buyers will find modest ranch homes and bungalows near the city's east end, many of which have been recently renovated. Ranch-style homes in Terrell Hills can cost anywhere from $300,000 to $500,000.
