About this property
“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately" ? Henry David Thoreau There's a peace that comes from listening to nature. You don't get it from sitting in traffic. Life is better lives on purpose with intention - and there's no better place to do that than under the stars. All 4.8 of your acres will spread out, allowing you to sink in to enjoy life the way it was meant to be lived. Electric is at the street but you'll be off-grid with your shared well and the septic you install. Build a house, a hanger or a home. What you dream will come to life with the sweeping views of trees, prairies and wildlife that surround you. And just wait until you see the sun come up or slowly go down out here. It's something special and you're never going back to city life after seeing it. Your new homestead is just a few minutes to groceries in Luling, barbecue in Lockhart or river tubing in San Marcos. Live your life deliberately on your terms....on your land.

About the Area
261 Engelke Rd is located in Kingsbury, Texas, in Guadalupe County. Guadalupe County anchors the fast-growing corridor between San Antonio and Austin, centered on Seguin, one of the oldest Anglo settlements in Texas, founded in 1838 and named for Juan Seguín, the Tejano hero of the Texas Revolution. The county blends deep Texas history with explosive modern growth driven by its position between two of America's largest metro economies.
The Guadalupe River flows through the heart of Guadalupe County, providing river frontage properties and water recreation within easy reach of San Antonio. Lake Gonzales and Meadow Lake provide additional water amenities. The terrain transitions from the limestone hills of the western county to the rich blackland prairie soils of the east, which have supported agriculture since the earliest Anglo settlements.
Kingsbury had an estimated population of 186 as of 2023. The 78638 zip code has a median household income of $82,760, a median home value of $301,500, and a median age of 43.9. The average household size is 2.75 people.
Guadalupe County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Texas, driven by San Antonio and Austin metro expansion, major manufacturing including the massive Toyota truck plant in nearby San Antonio, and a surging residential real estate market. Seguin's industrial base includes significant advanced manufacturing alongside the growing bedroom community residential sector serving both metro areas.
