Sonterra

Confirmed as Bexar County's first master-planned community, established in 1985 by developer Dan Parman, in the North Central corridor, with multiple named subsections (The Fairways, The Oaks, La Cierra, etc.), built around The Club at Sonterra's 36 holes. Individual Sonterra subdivisions are reported as gated; the club/course grounds' own gated status is unconfirmed.

What to Independently Verify

Corroborated this pass across independent sources (beyond the original discovery-stage source): Sonterra-Stone Oak was established in 1985 by developer Dan Parman as Bexar County's first master-planned community, and the gated Sonterra subdivisions centered on the Club at Sonterra's two courses were among the master plan's earliest built neighborhoods. Membership at the club remains confirmed available-but-separate from homeownership. Real estate marketing frequently bundles 'Sonterra' with the adjacent 'Stone Oak' area -- treat this as a labeling/geographic overlap rather than two separate communities. Re-researched in a targeted San Antonio completion pass on 2026-09-21 with live WebSearch access (the prior pass had exhausted its shared session WebSearch budget). WebFetch remained EGRESS_BLOCKED for HOA/developer domains.
