Exciting Developments in Georgetown: Wolf Ranch Nears Completion
Residents of Georgetown are buzzing with excitement as the neighborhood of Wolf Ranch is gearing up to enter its final phase of development! After almost a decade of hard work, this 1,120-acre master-planned community is set to complete with a grand total of nearly 2,500 homes. This is certainly great news for anyone looking to settle down in a thriving area.
West Bend: The Final Chapter
The third and final phase, known as West Bend, is expected to break ground by summer 2025, with homes starting at the appealing price of the **mid-$400,000 range**. Can you believe it? With 325 acres dedicated to this last phase, West Bend will contribute 671 home sites to the already burgeoning neighborhood. Earlier phases, which were charmingly called Hilltop and Southfork, each also had 671 and 1,121 home sites respectively.
As the area continues to grow, it’s fascinating to see a lineup of homebuilders ready to bring these houses to life. Coventry Homes, David Weekley Homes, and Highland Homes, to name a few, will join forces to create beautiful new residences. Don’t forget the innovative touch brought by Austin-based Icon Technology Inc., which is pioneering the exciting realm of 3D-printed homes right in Wolf Ranch!
Community Spirit Shines Through
As it stands, Wolf Ranch is already a lovely community with over 1,200 residents. The neighborhood has shown impressive growth, ranking as the fourth fastest-growing in the region with 276 new home starts and 207 closings within the last year. Talk about making an impact!
One of the standout attractions in Wolf Ranch is the well-established Wolf Ranch Elementary School. In a deal made back in 2017, Hillwood Communities partnered with the Georgetown Independent School District, allowing for the school’s construction. Although it was completed in 2020, the official opening happened in 2021 due to the disruption caused by the pandemic. The increasing home sales in the community can largely be attributed to the presence of the school, which has been a real game-changer for attracting families. Duke Kerrigan, Austin general manager at Hillwood Communities, mentioned, “It’s a great point of attraction for consumers and residents to live here.”
Award-Winning Design
Wolf Ranch’s success isn’t just in numbers; it’s also been recognized with prestigious awards! The Greater Austin Builders Association honored it as the 2024 Best Master-Planned Community. Additionally, during the 2024 Residential Real Estate Awards, Wolf Ranch snagged the award for Master-Planned Community. These accolades highlight the hard work and thoughtful planning that has gone into creating a vibrant and welcoming space for residents.
A Bright Future Ahead
With its prime location near the intersection of State Highway 29 and I-35, Wolf Ranch is poised for continued growth and development. For anyone on the lookout for an ideal place to call home, this neighborhood is definitely worth considering. The combination of well-planned amenities, award-winning design, and a friendly community spirit makes Wolf Ranch a standout choice in Georgetown.
As we approach 2025 and the rollout of the West Bend phase, it’ll be exciting to see how this thriving community continues to evolve and grow. If you’re thinking about making a move, keep an eye on this vibrant neighborhood where dreams of home and community come together!
