La Cima provides hill country living with access to San Marcos
La Cima is a new home community in Texas’ Hill Country, offering buyers a selection of single-family homes and outdoor facilities. While the neighborhood is still undergoing construction, it already has an extensive trail network along with three pools and an amenity center. It is also close to downtown San Marcos’ shopping and dining, Texas State University and Interstate 35.

New builds with stone accents are common
Homes are one or two-story New Traditionals with limestone or brick accents. Multiple builders have been contracted to construct housing, including Ashton Woods, Newmark Homes and David Weekley Homes. Construction is still ongoing, and over 2,000 units are expected to be completed.
“A lot of builders use natural limestone on the exterior. It really agrees with the Hill Country setting,” says Matt Menard, a broker with ERA Real Estate Experts, who has over 20 years of experience. “Interiors are sleek or straight-lined designs that feel modern and not dated.”
Prices range from under $300,000 to $850,000. However, some homes have sold for over $900,000. The neighborhood is overseen by a homeowner’s association. Menard says HOA fees are $180 per quarter, or $60 per month, covering common-area maintenance and amenity access. “For that level of amenity, [the fees] are very competitive,” says Menard.
Properties are typically on winding streets with smaller lots and young trees accenting lawns. Menard also says that La Cima has attracted a mix of young couples and families.
