Blanco River District offers Austin-area growth potential with Hill Country scenery
West of Interstate 35 between San Marcos and Kyle, Blanco River District is a centrally located Hays County community offering easy interstate access to both Austin and San Antonio while still retaining a laidback Texas Hill Country feel. “It’s affordable with natural beauty and a good location, and it’s appealing for people who want a balance between suburban and urban accessibility,” says Realtor Summer Carter with eXp Realty. “There is a lot of growth potential there. Over time, the greater Austin area has proven to be one of the more stable markets, even during a recession, so the growth potential for somewhere like Kyle is still there for someone who has a long-term vision.”
Northshore Austin offers luxurious apartments with stunning downtown views.
