Homes for sale in Timberwood Park, TX

Buying in Timberwood Park and the US-281 corridor

Timberwood Park is a large unincorporated community in north Bexar County, spread along US-281 north of Loop 1604 and about 19 miles from downtown San Antonio. It has no city government of its own, and homes here carry San Antonio mailing addresses, so the figures on this page count listings within about four miles of the community's center. That takes in Timberwood Park itself plus the newer subdivisions toward Bulverde and Stone Oak.

About 380 homes are for sale in and around Timberwood Park. The median asking price is about $525,000, and the middle half runs from roughly $422,000 to $700,000.

What the houses look like

Nearly every listing is a detached single-family home, with a median of about 2,830 square feet on roughly a fifth of an acre. About 7% sit on an acre or more. Three-bedroom homes have a median near $415,000, and four-bedroom-plus homes near $576,000. Townhomes and garden homes are scarce.

Two school districts meet here

The area is split almost evenly between North East ISD and Comal ISD, and the boundary does not follow ZIP codes. Houses in the same ZIP can be zoned to different districts, so confirm schools for the exact address before you fall for a house. Most listings are in 78260, with others in 78258 and 78261.

• Mountain Lodge and Canyon Springs have the most homes listed
• Heights at Stone Oak, Bulverde Village and Kinder Ranch follow
• Mesa Grande, Terra Bella, The Preserve at Indian Springs, Willis Ranch and Summerglen round out the list

Taxes, HOAs and timing

Being outside city limits means no city property tax, but many subdivisions along US-281 have HOA dues, and some may sit in special taxing districts. Ask for the full tax breakdown and HOA documents early. Homes take about 55 days to sell at the median, and about 15% have cut their price, so there is room to negotiate on many listings.

JBSA-Camp Bullis is about five miles away. The Rothrock Realty Team can compare subdivisions on both sides of the school line, review HOA and tax details, and handle your offer.
