Correction, November 1, 2026: An earlier version of this post said the home was well under a "2026 VA loan limit of $832,750." According to VA.gov, a veteran with full entitlement has no VA loan limit; the lender and the appraisal decide the amount, and the county limit only matters for buyers with remaining (partial) entitlement. The VA section and FAQ now say so. We also removed unverified commute times and school-rating details and updated Christopher's credentials.

This historical profile describes 12629 Hellas Ranch, a Perry Homes single-story in the Trails at Westpointe area of far west San Antonio. The original property description listed 3 bedrooms, 2 baths and 2,031 square feet, with an island kitchen, dedicated study with French doors, covered backyard patio and a 2-car garage.

Use the neighborhood information below as background when comparing other homes. Confirm current listing status, property condition, school assignments and costs before making a housing decision.

What Makes This Perry Homes Build Stand Out?

Perry Homes is one of Texas's most established production builders, operating since 1967 with a 95% customer satisfaction rating. Buyers who choose a Perry Homes build get consistent quality: engineered floor plans, energy-efficient construction standards, and features that a resale home often doesn't have out of the box.

The original property profile described the home as built in 2020 and recorded these features. They have not been re-inspected for this status update:

• Open-concept layout — the island kitchen flows directly into the family room, ideal for everyday living and entertaining
• Island kitchen with gas cooking, stainless appliances, corner walk-in pantry, and breakfast area
• Dedicated study with French doors near the entry — usable as a home office, flex room, or 4th sleeping space
• Primary suite with dual vanities, garden tub, separate glass-enclosed shower, and walk-in closet
• Secondary bedrooms positioned away from the primary for privacy
• High ceilings throughout with ceramic tile in main living areas and carpet in bedrooms
• Tankless water heater and programmable thermostat — Perry Homes energy efficiency package
• Double-pane windows and irrigation system
• Covered backyard patio with privacy fence
• Attached 2-car garage

The home sits on a 0.129-acre lot with a slab foundation, composition roof, and central HVAC. Lot size is typical for the community, maximizing usable yard space within the neighborhood footprint.

What Is the Trails at Westpointe Community Like?

Trails at Westpointe is a master-planned community in far west San Antonio near the corner of Wiseman Blvd. and Talley Rd. The community is designed around an active, connected lifestyle, offering:

• Neighborhood pool and clubhouse
• Park and playground
• Walking, jogging, and hike-and-bike trails
• Hill-country adjacent setting with wide streetscapes and green spaces

The HOA is managed by the Westpointe East HOA at $150 per quarter — approximately $600 annually — a reasonable rate for the level of amenities provided. The community continues to attract buyers looking for the quality and consistency of a planned neighborhood without the price tags of more established areas inside Loop 1604.

How Does the Alamo Ranch Corridor Stack Up for Daily Life?

The location in the 78253 zip code puts residents squarely in the Alamo Ranch corridor — one of San Antonio's fastest-growing northwest retail and dining corridors. Just a few minutes from the Westpointe neighborhood, residents have access to:

• Alamo Ranch shopping center — H-E-B, Target, Best Buy, and dozens of chain and local restaurants
• Multiple grocery options close to the neighborhood
• Loop 1604 and Hwy 211 — the two primary arteries giving easy access to all quadrants of San Antonio
• Quick connection to I-10 West toward Boerne and the Texas Hill Country

The area around 78253 has seen substantial commercial growth over the past decade. Whether it's a quick coffee run, a grocery trip, or a night out, much of it is close to Westpointe.

What Schools Serve This Home?

12629 Hellas Ranch is in the Northside Independent School District (NISD), one of the largest school districts in Texas. Assigned schools include:

• Cole Elementary School — located at 13185 Tillman Ridge, San Antonio TX 78253
• William Brennan High School — part of Northside ISD

SABOR MLS lists Cole Elementary and William Brennan High School for this address. Attendance zones can change, so confirm current campuses for the address with Northside ISD.

How Far Is This Home From JBSA-Lackland?

From the 78253 ZIP code, JBSA-Lackland is reached by Loop 1604 and US 90. Commute time depends on traffic, time of day and the gate you use, so drive it at your duty hours before you decide. The Westpointe area sits on the far northwest side of San Antonio, putting it farther from Lackland than communities like Westover Hills or the 78245 zip code.

However, the 78253 corridor is a strong choice for military families who:

• Work at JBSA-Lackland but prefer newer construction and master-planned community amenities
• Have a spouse working on the northwest side (UTSA, medical center area, or corporate offices along 1604)
• Want more square footage and community features for a comparable price

Veterans and active-duty buyers should also check Christopher Beal's Military Relocation resources for BAH rates, commute analysis, and PCS buying strategies for JBSA installations.

How Does VA Financing Work for a Future Home Purchase?

This historical article does not establish that this property is available or approved for a VA-financed purchase. For a future purchase of an available home, VA appraisal requirements and lender approval still apply. There is no VA "loan limit" to clear for a veteran with full entitlement: according to VA.gov, a buyer with full entitlement does not have a loan limit as long as the lender approves the loan and the appraisal supports the price. The county loan limit only matters for buyers with remaining (partial) entitlement, and in that case the lender may ask for a down payment. In most cases, the VA guaranty lets a qualified buyer purchase with no down payment.

General VA loan features for qualifying purchases:

• No down payment required for qualifying buyers
• No private mortgage insurance (PMI)
• Competitive interest rates compared to conventional financing
• Assumable loan potential for future resale value
