Homes for sale in Medina, TX

Homes and acreage in and around Medina, Texas

Medina is a small Bandera County town on the Medina River, northwest of Bandera on the road toward Kerrville and roughly 52 miles from downtown San Antonio. It is not in Medina County. Because the town is small and many nearby homes carry other mailing cities, the figures here include listings within about 12 miles of Medina, which pulls in parts of the Bandera and Lakehills areas.

That wider area has about 30 homes for sale. The median asking price is about $427,000, and the middle half spans roughly $286,000 to $744,000, a wide range that reflects how much land comes with each house.

Land is a big part of the price

More than half of these listings, about 53%, sit on an acre or more, and the median property has about 2 acres. Houses are fairly roomy at about 2,100 square feet at the median. Three-bedroom homes ask around $440,000, while four-bedroom homes have a median a little over $1 million, usually on large ranch tracts. Smaller two-bedroom homes come in near $221,000.

Twenty-two of the 30 are site-built houses and eight are manufactured homes, so there is an entry point for buyers who want land on a tighter budget.

Where listings turn up

Listings are spread thin across many places: Lake Medina Shores, Bandera Estates, Exotic Acres, Indian Waters, Legacy Hills, Altamire Hills, Bridlegate and Happy Hollow Ranch each have one to three. Several are outside any named subdivision. Nearly all use the 78003 ZIP code and almost all are zoned to Bandera ISD.

Before you buy out here

Homes have been listed about 62 days at the median, nothing is new this week and about 10% have reduced their price. With so few choices, a good house can still go quickly, while an overpriced one may sit. Ask for a survey, a well report and a septic inspection, and check whether any acreage carries an agricultural or wildlife valuation and what it takes to keep it.
