About this home
Discover a rare opportunity to own five acres of Texas countryside just minutes outside of San Antonio-where space, privacy, and potential converge. The property includes an older, uninhabitable home that still holds structural integrity. Whether you envision restoring it from the bones up or opting for a complete tear-down and rebuilding, the groundwork is set. The home previously had water and electric service, giving future owners a head starts for utility reconnection. What truly sets this property apart is the land itself. The five acres are naturally beautiful, dotted with mature trees that provide shade, privacy, and a peaceful rural backdrop. The area around the home has already been cleared-perfect for building or expansion-while the remaining acreage invites further discovery, development, or recreational use. Whether you're planning gardens, additional structures, or simply want open space to roam, this land is your blank canvas. Located in the liberty-minded city of Von Ormy, this property is free from city taxes, homeowner's associations, and heavy-handed restrictions-giving you the freedom to build what you want, how you want. It's a rare blend of rural freedom and practical convenience. Despite the tranquil setting, you're just 15-20 minutes from downtown San Antonio with quick access to I-35 and Loop 1604. Nearby employment hubs include Toyota Motor Manufacturing Texas, Southwest General Hospital, Lackland Air Force Base, and major distribution centers like Amazon. Higher education is also easily accessible, with Texas A&M University-San Antonio and Palo Alto College just a short drive away. The home may be viewed by appointment, but please exercise caution. There are no active utilities, so bring a flashlight, watch your step, and enter at your own risk. The property is being sold as-is. Whether you're looking to create a private homestead, build a new residence, or secure land for future investment, this property offers the location, landscape, and flexibility to bring your vision to life.
