Why move to Leon Springs Tx?

Leon Springs Texas is an unincorporated community partially within the city of San Antonio Tx. It offers old time charm with homes that vary from a moderate price well into the millions. This area was settled in the mid nineteenth century by German immigrants, and there has been tremendous growth in the area over the past three years. Be careful driving off of IH 10 by the Boerne Stage Rd exit, you might miss it if you blink! Back in the day, Leon Springs served as a Stagecoach stop between San Antonio Texas and San Diego California.

Leon Springs boasts the original Rudy’s Country store and Bar-B-Q which was opened by Rudolph Aue, the son of the town’s founder, Max Aue. The original home of the founding Aue family still stands and the area now has two elementary schools; Leon Springs and Julia Newton Aue Elementary (named after the wife of Rudolph Aue Jr.) This little community borders Camp Bullis, a military training facility still in use today. It is also nested between stately homes, Leon Springs Creek, multiple communities that are acreage home sites, gated communities, and custom homes. Home prices around this area can range anywhere from the mid $200’s to multimillion dollars. The Dominion, with its own country club; is a coveted gated/guarded exclusive community of custom homes known for its wealthy inhabitants, including some well known singers, actors, athletes, and community leaders. Crownridge is another well established community of homes that can also vary in price and style from garden homes in the mid $100’s to Million dollar homes at the top of the exclusive hills with gorgeous views of the hill country. Some areas can even enjoy the evening fireworks display at the Fiesta Texas theme park from their balconies. There are gated communities such as Stonewall Ranch, Stonewall Ranch Estates, and Steeple Brook across the IH 10 Corridor, just across the Dominion. Communities such as Stage Run, Two Creeks, and many more surround this small community and offer homes for people of all lifestyles.

With the recent growth around the Leon Springs area, one just has to drive minutes for shopping, fine dining, movies, and entertainment. The Rim and La Cantera Shops are but 3-5 minutes away, and Fiesta Texas is but 2-3 miles, golf courses, four star hotels and medical facilities are all within a short drive as well. Leon Springs is just about a five minute drive to Fair Oaks, and ten minutes to Boerne. If you are moving to San Antonio, this area in the Northwest is ideal for anyone wishing to enjoy a hill country feel that is close to major employers, universities, and highways.
