...Lot #8 | THE WATERFORD

This uniquely positioned homesite rests atop a secluded and very private bench overlooking the community fishpond. To the south are long view corridors overlooking the river valley encompassing Bee Creek. This property shares a fence with a large conservation ranch ensuring continued privacy. Views beyond the fishing pond stretch beyond toward the heart of Preservation Ranch, where the horizontal glen rose formations can be seen etched into the distant hillsides. Truly spectacular and one-of-a-kind.

Preservation Ranch is a unique community with only thirty-two individual ranchettes spread over 1,000 +/- acres of private, high-fenced hill country land. With miles of Bee Creek and other unnamed tributaries running throughout this area, you will not find another offering quite like this anywhere else, all within 15 minutes of the Hill Country Galleria, Whole Foods & HEB grocery stores, restaurants, shopping and of course the new Backyard Music Venue.

The most striking benefit of living within Preservation Ranch is the lifestyle: Secluded, Private, and Elegant. Some say this unique area reminds them of Rancho Santa Fe, CA. Preservation Ranch is truly a rare find because of its close proximity to Bee Cave and Dripping Springs, but with an Austin address. This area is located in the Lake Travis ISD with the newest high school and sports facilities and new Travis County parks expansion just around the corner. This is a perfect blend of hill country ranch life with the conveniences of the city just down the road. All of the property in Preservation Ranch is under a wildlife exemption maintained by the HOA. This exemption is challenging to get, but all the work has been done for you and will help significantly reduce the property tax burden for all landowners here.

Every ranch in Preservation Ranch affords unique Texas Hill Country homesites to create the luxury estate and lifestyle you and your family will treasure for many generations to come.
