57 gated homesites across 675 acres between Wimberley and Dripping Springs, with 40-mile views from above 1,400 feet.
RanchesAt Driftwood is a 675-acre gated community with 57 homesites of 10 to 17 acres, centered on Lone Woman Mountain, where the high point rises above 1,400 feet and opens up 40-mile Hill Country views.
The community includes miles of trails, a community pond, a private hilltop park, and wildlife management, and every homesite was positioned to preserve privacy and the natural landscape.
The property sits at 19631 Ranch Road 12, between Wimberley and Dripping Springs, minutes from dining, shopping, wineries, and breweries, with Austin-Bergstrom International Airport about 35 miles away.
That location is the thing to think hardest about. Wimberley and Dripping Springs are two different towns with two different feels and two different school districts, and RM 12 between them is a road you will drive every single day. Take the drive at 7:45 on a Tuesday morning before you decide, not on a Saturday afternoon.
On elevated ranchette lots, the questions that decide your real cost are rarely on the marketing page. Where does the driveway go, and what does it cost to cut it? Where does the water come from? What does the septic system need on that soil? What do the architectural guidelines require, and how long is the approval process?
I ask those questions for my buyers before they go under contract, because the answers can swing your all-in number by six figures on a hilltop lot.
Setting: Rolling ridgelines, mature oak forest, and limestone outcroppings.
Access: Gated, with private tours available by appointment.
Best fit: Buyers who want a view lot and real acreage within reach of Austin.
Also looking at the sister community west of town? Read my page on Ranches At Dripping Springs, or reach out and I will compare the two for you side by side.
Tours here are private and by appointment. I can set one up, come with you, and make sure the questions that actually matter on a hilltop lot get asked while we are standing on it.
