Accessibly priced in sought-after southeast Amarillo
Southeast Amarillo has grown rapidly in the past two decades, largely due to new housing developments and highly rated schools in the Amarillo Independent School District. “There are a lot of newer homes and newer neighborhoods; it’s just really popular,” says Cyndal Ashlock, an Amarillo native and a Realtor with EXP Realty. “Any time we have available listings, we have a lot of eyeballs on this area, and really anywhere in south Amarillo.” Windmill Acres provides both manufactured and single-family housing options at a lower price point than other neighborhoods in the southern part of the city. It is a few miles from the major employers in downtown Amarillo and shopping districts on Route 66, but the community is still close to large parks and some of the biggest local event centers.
Family homes and Windmill Acres’ manufactured home subdivision
Windmill Acres has a same-named manufactured home subdivision, which is full of homes between 1,000 and 2,000 square feet that have a price tag of $140,000 to $230,000. By comparison, the median home price for Amarillo is $250,000. There are also a few single-family New Traditional homes, which sell for $200,000 to $300,000. According to Ana Garica, a Realtor with Coldwell Banker First Equity, over 98% of Windmill Acres residents own their homes, with very few renters in the neighborhood. There are wide, well-maintained sidewalks throughout the entire community, and residents have their own fenced-in yards, complete with gardens and a few planted trees. The community has a CAP Index Crime Score of 3, slightly below the national average score of 4 out of 10.
Windmill Acres boasts modern manufactured homes with all the amenities.
Elegant and inviting, Windmill Acre's new traditional homes are perfect for modern families.

Public golf tournaments at Comanche Trail
Amarillo is frequently windy and dry, so on days with good weather, locals take full advantage of the neighborhood parks. “If there’s no wind, you’ll catch everyone outside,” Ashlock says. Southeast Park on Southeast 46th Avenue is within walking distance of Windmill Acres, with multiple paths alongside a large pond. Less than a mile down Osage Street, Southwest Complex is one of the city’s designated athletic facilities, with baseball and softball fields. Nearby Comanche Trail Golf Course on South Grand Street is open for public tee times every week and hosts charity and professional championships annually. Community churches like Church of Christ Commanche Trail and Amarillo for Christ Church are both on East 34th Street, halfway between the golf course and Southwest Complex.
