Neighborhood Spotlight: Rio Ancho, Liberty Hill

Discover Liberty Hill’s Hidden Gem
Are you searching for the perfect blend of peaceful country living and modern convenience in the heart of the Texas Hill Country? Look no further than Rio Ancho, a highly sought-after neighborhood in beautiful Liberty Hill, TX. As a local real estate agent, I’m thrilled to share why Rio Ancho is quickly becoming the destination for homebuyers seeking custom homes, spacious lots, and an exceptional community atmosphere.
Why Rio Ancho Stands Out:
Rio Ancho isn’t your typical “cookie-cutter” neighborhood. This master-planned community boasts a unique charm with custom-built homes on generous lots, typically ranging from ¾ of an acre to over 1 acre. Imagine having ample space for outdoor living, a future pool, or simply enjoying the natural beauty that surrounds you.
- Custom Homes & Upscale Finishes: Homes in Rio Ancho feature diverse architectural designs by local builders, with sizes generally ranging from 2,500 to 5,000 square feet. Inside, you’ll discover gourmet kitchens, high-end finishes, and open floor plans perfect for entertaining. Many homes offer private pools and expansive outdoor living areas, ideal for the Texas lifestyle.
- Spacious Acreage Lots: One of the biggest draws to Rio Ancho is the opportunity to own a large lot, providing privacy and room to breathe. This is a significant advantage for those looking for Liberty Hill homes with acreage.
- Gated Community & Enhanced Security: Rio Ancho offers a gated entrance, providing an added layer of security and peace of mind for residents.
- Exceptional Amenities: Residents of Rio Ancho enjoy a fantastic array of amenities designed to enhance their quality of life, including:
- A private Community Clubhouse – perfect for hosting events and gatherings.
- A refreshing Community Pool – a welcome escape during the warm Texas summers. It is rare to find a community pool in acerage neighbroohds!
- Extensive Trail Systems – ideal for walking, running, or biking amidst the scenic Hill Country.
- San Gabriel River Access – enjoy fishing, kayaking, or serene picnics by the water, a unique feature for the neighborhood. While Rio Ancho itself has direct access, nearby River Ranch County Park also offers fantastic river access and trails (learn more here).

Nestled at the western end of Liberty Hill, Rio Ancho offers convenient access to Highway 29, putting you within easy reach of major employers in Austin and nearby suburbs like Cedar Park, with its array of popular restaurants and retail shops (Costco, H-E-B, Walmart).

Top-Rated Schools:
Families in Rio Ancho benefit from being part of the Liberty Hill Independent School District (LHISD), renowned for its quality education.
