Property Description

Sunrise Vista | City Convenience. Ranchette Freedom.

Opportunity to own 20 acres of elevated Hill Country land in a close-in location just minutes from the conveniences of Cedar Park, Leander, and Austin. Set on a hilltop in Lime Creek Valley across from approximately 10,000 acres of protected preserve land, including the Baker Sanctuary, the property offers a compelling blend of privacy, views, and long-term potential, truly a “ranchette in the city.”
