An expanding Leander community

Leander is an up-and-coming area in Williamson County, and a prime example is the Larkspur community. A newer neighborhood in the area, Larkspur is still growing into its 608 acres to eventually have over 1,500 homes. The neighborhood features some of the best natural amenities in the Texas Hill Country and is just north of the San Gabriel River. The natural beauty in and around the community provides residents with an easy excuse to spend the day outside, but modern amenities are also easily accessible through major roads. The neighborhood is located about 30 miles from Austin, and is near several major roads as well as the Capital Metrorail which heads right to the city.

Community Amenities

“The amenities center is pretty spectacular,” says Tanya Kerr, a Texas native and Associate Broker with T. Kerr Property Group. “The community has a lot of amenities, like a pretty big pool and playgrounds.” Larkspur is an amenity-rich community, one of the big draws for potential residents. The community pavilion is a great place to meet new neighbors, as is the expansive amenities center. Parents take their kids to the pool and splash pad during the summertime for some relief from the heat.

San Gabriel River and more outdoor amenities

Many residents are just a short walk away from spending the day outdoors. Neighbors might bring their pup on a walk through Larkspur Trail, which takes visitors through a forested landscape. Joggers get their exercise for the day at Sienna Park, which features a short looping trail. The neighborhood also sits along the expansive 50-mile San Gabriel River. Devine Lake Park is a prime spot for fishing bass and catfish.

Highways and public transportation

Kerr says, “It’s pretty close to North Austin, where a lot of people work, so it’s good for people who want a little distance from the city.” Larkspur is located about 30 miles from downtown Austin, and Route 183 is a convenient route for commuters. The neighborhood is also located near Highway 29, which can lead to Georgetown. Locals can also get to Austin by taking the CapMetro Rail system, which has a stop in Leander that’s only 4 miles away.
