Hondo, TX 78850 (Medina County)
About this property
Welcome to God’s Country. The locals here have sometimes gently, sometimes more aggressively, resisted change for hundreds of years. They don’t want data centers or distribution centers. They want peace and quiet, they even ask you not to drive like Hell through their town. This 21.7 acres is just a mile away from HWY 90 for easy access to Uvalde to the West, Hondo/Castroville to the East or that real big city even further past there. But out here on your property you don’t have to think about things like traffic, crime rates or even other people if you don’t want to. There is a 2400 square foot custom pavilion already in place and connected to water. Plan for events, parties or rentals. Maybe put an RV there and stay the weekend under cover. Possibilities are endless. The second structure is a metal garage/barn on the Western side of the property. Squirrel Creek runs to down your Western border and cuts East behind your property. You’ll enjoy the greenery and the natural barrier that your water feature creates. And so do the wildlife that congregate around it. This property is not only big enough to hunt on, it’s rural enough that you’ll actually see animals. If you’re a dove hunter, this is where you want to be opening day of South Zone. Yes, there are light deed restrictions preventing your neighbors from single wide mobile homes, concert venues or tiny subdivisions. Your investment is protected. Your family is protected. Your way of life is protected. The secret to living well is living intentionally. Out here you don’t have city taxes or city rules governing your choices. You don’t need permission to build, to put up a fence or to discharge your firearms. You can live your life the way you want at the pace you want. You can live intentionally. And I really think you should.
