San Marcos, TX 78666 (Hays County)
About this property
This is the kind of land that's getting harder to find and easier to love. Part of an exclusive 15-tract estate community, this is for the buyers who value space, privacy, and natural beauty yet want to be close to city services. 2013 Hilliard Rd is +/- 13.89 acres of pristine Hill Country with wildlife exemption, keeping property taxes exceptionally low, with uninterrupted views across a protected conservancy, and only +/-10 minutes from central San Marcos and +/- 15 minutes from Kyle. Beyond the conservancy lies a large tract owned by Texas State University, creating an exceptional layered buffer that preserves the surrounding landscape and the remarkable sense of openness that defines this property for the long term. Cedar has been selectively cleared to reveal the property's natural bones: multiple prime build sites framed by mature oak trees and rolling terrain, each positioned to take full advantage of the views. A cleared driveway running from the front to the rear of the property makes it easy to walk every corner and envision the possibilities. The property is partially fenced, and PEC electricity has been approved and is scheduled for connection by mid to late June. A shared wildlife exemption agreement is a meaningful financial advantage that conveys with the land. This is a great opportunity in Northwest San Marcos — offering long-term view protection, abundant wildlife, and the kind of unspoiled Hill Country setting that is increasingly difficult to find this close to city amenities in both San Marcos and Kyle. Buyer to verify all information.
