2008 San Antonio Parade Of Homes

By rerockstar • November 20th, 2008

Looking for a high end home?

I went to the Parade of Homes over at The Palacios at Cibolo Canyons this weekend to take a look at the homes on show this year (I missed the Realtor® Day as I was busy working on a contract). Of course, I wanted to show some pictures here and discuss specifics, but they have a “no camera” policy, so I was unable to bring back much more than some mental images.

Overall, I liked the homes. I’m not sure if I liked them for the price though ($1.2 million and up). Having lived in Los Angeles for eight years, I’m used to high end prices, but with so much affordable housing here in San Antonio, I felt that these were a little too pricey without the justifications that an area like Los Angeles would have. Having said that, the homes were all designed with a “green” theme in mind, which of course, tends to cost more to produce. My favorite? The Summit Built Homes house at 24026 Gran Palacios. If you’d like to check out this year’s homes, here’s a link.

The community at Cibolo Canyons isn’t just for millionaires though.  Ventanas at Cibolo Canyons has homes ranging from $250,000 to $350,000 and includes Imagine Homes’ “energy conscious and environmentally responsible” designs.  With Cibolo Canyons containing an amenity center that hosts a lazy river, pool, clubhouse, gym, and more and soon to be home (March 2010) to the JW Marriot San Antonio Hill Country Resort and Spa, its easy to see why Cibolo Canyons’ tagline is “Its all here in Cibolo Canyons.”
