Upscale Suburban Great Location Convenient Scenic

Shavano is an upscale suburb located about 18 miles north of Downtown San Antonio. As one of San Antonio’s most luxurious communities, Shavano Park features impressive Spanish-style houses, elegant mansions, lavish apartments, medical offices, and small businesses. Since the town is predominantly residential, residents have to travel out of town to get what they need. Luckily, Shavano Park is surrounded by shopping centers, restaurants, and entertainment options — which are all a 15-minute drive or less away. The Rim is a huge shopping plaza with a variety of popular brand-name stores, big-box department stores, diverse eateries, and movie theaters. Across from the Rim is the University of Texas at San Antonio campus and Six Flags Fiesta Texas. If you want even more to do, Midtown is only 20 minutes away and Downtown Shavano is 25 minutes away. Gorgeous architecture and a central location combined with access to high-performing schools and fun community events shape Shavano Park as one of the best suburbs to live in the San Antonio metro area.
