Partners in Building picked up at auction a development near Mansfield Dam in the northwest Austin area. With much infrastructure and permitting already in place, the 121 acre site is almost ready for Partners in Building to begin construction of new homes.
Homes to be built will be customizable by buyers and prices will start in the high $400,000 range. Landscaping is being done at the entrance, which is off RR 620 North, and a custom gate will be put in as well.
This development is in a great area. The development is served by Lake Travis ISD schools, which are excellent. The elementary, middle and high schools serving the development are all within 5-15 minutes. Not far northeast on 620 is major shopping with an HEB grocery store, Target, Super Walmart and more just 10 minutes away.
Being so close to Lake Travis and Lake Austin, recreational opportunities abound. Being close to Mansfield Dam, a public boat ramp into Lake Travis is just minutes away. The lake offers boating, water skiing, wakeboarding, swimming, fishing and even scuba diving. A boat ramp for Lake Austin is available at the end of Quinlan Park Rd and the trip 22 miles down the lake to Austin is amazing.
In the other direction are the cities of Lakeway and Bee Cave. Retail, restaurants, medical offices and more are all up and down 620. In Bee Cave, the Hill Country Galleria Mall offers major shopping and the Shops at the Galleria offer another 500,000 square feet of retail. This is all just 10-15 minutes from the new 121 acre community.
In addition, the Lakeway Regional Medical Center is under construction in Lakeway. The medical center will contain a hospital with a Level III Trauma Center, floors for pediatrics, women’s health, surgery and more. In addition, there will be medical office space, a hotel, restaurants and much more at the medical center.
Access from the 121 acres to north, central and downtown Austin is good and drive time isn’t terribly bad in the absence of bad weather. Some of the one-acre home sites will also offer very nice Hill Country views. Overall, this looks like it will turn in to a very nice community.
