RIVER ROCK RANCH

Perched on the Hill Country corridor between San Antonio and small-town Boerne (located off of Boerne Stage Road 8 miles north of Loop 1604 and 10 miles south of Boerne), River Rock Ranch is a coveted gated community with all the perks of both city and countryside. Because of its strategic location, neighborhood residents enjoy a short commute to both popular area employers (Valero, USAA, UTSA, and the South Texas Medical Center), as well as San Antonio’s premier shopping, dining, and entertainment facilities. Browse the upscale Shops at La Cantera and The Rim, enjoy the riotous fun of Six Flags Fiesta Texas, play a game of golf at the Fair Oaks Ranch Golf Club and Palmer Course, or explore the Hill Country’s best vino on the Texas Wine Trail. Alternately, River Rock Ranch provides plenty of fun without ever having to leave the neighborhood. Within the community itself, amenities like a playground, fitness center, resort-style swimming pool (with a lazy river!), and a luxurious clubhouse await. With new homes available from the $490s (and an overall median sale price around $470k), homes in River Rock Ranch are perfect for move-up buyers looking to head north of city limits for some peace and quiet (and generous lot sizes). These properties generally sit on quarter-acre lots and offer high square footage (a minimum of 2,600 square feet and reaching nearly 5,000 on the largest floor plans). Curious about school districts? Children living within River Rock Ranch are zoned to attend schools within the Northside ISD, one of the top districts in the area (and winning spots on lists like “Districts with the Best Teachers in Texas” and “Best School Districts in Texas”). Though exact school zoning may vary slightly, most students attend highly coveted schools like Dr. Sara B. McAndrews Elementary, Rawlinson Middle, and Clark High School.
