Koontz Corporation Acquires 9.66-Acre Site to Develop The Elle Apartment Homes in Exclusive Far North Central San Antonio
SAN ANTONIO—March 26, 2025. San Antonio-based Koontz Corporation, an award-winning industry leader in the development and construction of commercial and multi-family properties throughout Texas for more than a quarter of a century, today announced it has acquired a prime 9.66-acre site in Far North San Antonio where it will develop a state-of-the-art multi-family community, The Elle Apartment Homes. The 305-unit luxury apartment community is designed to meet the growing demand for high-end living in the region.
“We are thrilled to have acquired this exceptional tract, which sits at the heart of one of San Antonio’s most desirable areas to live, work and play,” said Koontz Corporation President and CEO Bart C. Koontz. “We stay closely attuned to market opportunities and are always poised to act quickly when an opportunity like this becomes available. The community we will create there will be a valuable, attractive addition to the surrounding amenities that are drawing people to this area of our city.”
The Elle Apartment Homes will be situated on one of the preeminent sites in North Central San Antonio between Blanco Road and Bitters Road. Many of the city’s highest-grossing retailers are located along or near this same frontage between Stone Oak Parkway and Northwest Military Drive, and a host of high-end residential subdivisions are located nearby.
The Elle will be a complex of four-story, mid-rise apartments encompassing 264,015 net rentable square feet. It will offer 305 one- and two- bedroom apartment homes with luxe appointments such as wood plank and ceramic tile flooring; kitchens featuring spacious kitchen islands, designer stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry and quartz countertops; garden-style baths; oversized walk-in closets, full-size washers and dryers; and private patios. The Elle will be a gated community where residents will enjoy covered parking, an inviting residence entertainment room, shuffleboard and an advanced fitness center, internet café with coffee bar, business center and conference room, resort-style swimming pool with large sundeck, outdoor grilling areas and dog park.
Koontz Corporation purchased the property from The Concordia Group, which was represented by Lee Jordan of Cavender & Hill Properties. Koontz Corporation represented itself in the sale. Development partners in The Elle Apartment Homes include Garcia + Associates, architects; Pape-Dawson, engineers; Casey Roy Design, interior design; and IBC Bank, financing.
The Elle Apartment Homes are slated to break ground in third quarter 2025, with completion projected for June 2027.
Koontz Corporation has developed major projects throughout both primary and secondary cities across Texas. Since its founding in 1997, Koontz has developed more than nine million square feet of commercial real estate projects, including 23 multi-family projects totaling more than six million square feet and 6000-plus units. In addition to multi-family, the scope of Koontz’s properties includes office, medical office, industrial/flex and retail.
Currently, Koontz has numerous projects under construction and development, including:
- The Moderno Apartments (New Braunfels);
- The Savoy Apartment Homes, located at 12631 Vance Jackson, San Antonio;
- Westport Industrial Park (San Antonio) — a 35-acre industrial project near the corner of South Callaghan Road and Highway 151 on the city’s Near West Side; and
- Frontera Logistics Supersite, a 188-acre master-planned industrial mega-site and one of the largest and last infill sites inside Loop 410 in the San Antonio area.
For 27 years, excellence has been Koontz Corporation’s constant trademark. The company is known widely among tenants and development partners for raising the bar on excellence, delivering projects that feature high-quality construction, exceptional amenities and prime locations.
“We take genuine pride in the projects we build, ensuring they add value to the neighborhoods where we develop and are something we can be proud of many years down the road,” said Koontz. “The Elle will be no different; it will be an exceptional community that fits perfectly with the neighborhood aesthetics and is a comfortable, inviting place people are happy to call home.”
