Sought-after community in the heart of Leander

“I’ve lived in a lot of places and could’ve lived anywhere in Texas, but I chose here, and I love it.” That’s what Pamela Buske, a Broker with RE/MAX Fine Properties and resident of Oak Creek, a subdivision of Benbrook Ranch, had to say about the neighborhood she’s lived in for six years. “Everyone’s friendly, and you get a great feeling of community by living here.” Benbrook Ranch rests in the heart of Leander, an already up-and-coming city just 30 miles away from Austin. Natural amenities and proximity to Downtown Leander are big draws for potential residents, as well as the availability of contemporary homes that line quiet residential roads.

Spend the day at Benbrook Ranch Park

Neighbors can get some relief during the harsh summer months by taking a dip in the community pool, and there are many more natural amenities nearby. Kids in the Leander Youth Baseball League go at bat on the baseball diamond at Benbrook Ranch Park. The park has a lot going on, with the sound of skaters trying new tricks or grinding on the rail of the skatepark to families having a weekend barbecue on the pavilion. Locals cast a line to see what they can catch at Devine Lake Park or go for an afternoon jog along the loop trail.

Liberty Fest

Devine Lake Park hosts Leander’s annual Liberty Fest during July. Neighbors catch up with old friends or meet new friends while enjoying live music and enjoying food from local vendors. The event culminates with a fireworks show.

Local gathering spots

Locals love the drink specials and deals during the happy hour at Blue Corn Harvest, located along Hero Way. Chain eateries and retail options line Hero Way, and more options are available along US-183. Locals hang out in the extensive outdoor area at 5th Element Brewing, which serves several craft beers on tap. Residents can test their pop culture knowledge on Monday nights during Trivia Night or take part of Art Adventure’s Pint and Paint Night on the last Wednesday of each month.

Contemporary homes

Houses throughout the neighborhood tend to be priced from $350,000 up to $590,000 for a spacious four-bedroom home stretching over 2,800 square feet. Contemporary homes, many with brick accents, are clustered on sidewalk-lined streets, but many houses still have fenced-in backyards and long driveways leading to two-vehicle garages. “There’s been a lot of great development so far, and there are a lot of new projects underway,” Buske says.

Easy access to Austin

Residents are only 30 miles away from Austin by taking US-183, which can connect to the Texas 1 Loop. Public transportation options are also close by, with CapMetro Rail’s Leander station just minutes away.

Leander Independent School District

Kids here can walk to class at Jim Plain Elementary, part of the Leander Independent School District with an A-minus grade on Niche. They will then continue to Danielson Middle School, which received a B-plus grade, followed by B-rated Glenn High School. Glenn High Grizzlies can find their niche in the many organizations and athletic programs, like the Griz Pit whose goal is to increase school spirit.
