Castroville Homes for Sale & Real Estate Experts
History and setting
Founded in 1844 by settlers from the Alsace region [verify], Castroville retains steep-roofed stone cottages and a walkable historic district. It's in Medina County, just beyond the Bexar County line.
Homes and land
Historic homes cluster near the town center, with mid-century and newer homes around them. Outside town, acreage and small ranches are common, and new subdivisions continue to grow along US-90 toward San Antonio.
Local places
Castroville Regional Park on the Medina River, the Landmark Inn State Historic Site and Haby's Alsatian Bakery are well-known stops.
Commutes
US-90 is the main route east to Loop 1604, Lackland and downtown. Highway 471 links toward the Alamo Ranch area.
Selling in Castroville
Historic district properties may have preservation guidelines for exterior changes. Acreage sales need surveys, well and septic records, and any ag valuation details. Medina River frontage brings floodplain considerations.
Schools
For school boundaries and information, visit the official district site: Medina Valley ISD. Always confirm the school assignment for a specific address with the district.
