HILL COUNTRY HOMES

 

The Texas Hill Country has been long pitched as a getaway from daily obligations and invites everyone to unwind in its beautiful surroundings. Beginning on the western edge of Austin, the Texas Hill Country extends past San Antonio to the south and west. Hill Country’s homes tie elegantly into the area’s surrounding natural landscapes, which range from stunning peaks to vast, rolling hills. Live oak and juniper trees wind their way along Hill Country’s residential streets, which provide a home for some of the area’s most affluent homes.

 

Hill Country’s 31 unique cities offer their own amenities, but one thing is true for each one — the atmosphere is peaceful, welcoming, and luxurious. Large estates and sprawling mansions reside in guard-gated communities here and have sought-after access to world-renowned amenities like clubhouses, pools, recreational centers, well-maintained hiking and biking trails, and more.
