Custom homes in Sunset Canyon
One to two and a half acre lots north of US 290 near RR 12, ten minutes from downtown Dripping Springs, with mature trees, wet-weather creeks, greenbelt views and no HOA. Homes here date from 1985 to the last few years, all custom, and lots are still coming up for sale.
Acre lots with mature trees, no HOA, and lots still for sale.
Sunset Canyon is one of the older custom neighborhoods in Dripping Springs, and one of the few with a steady supply of buildable lots; one and two acre parcels have listed in the low to mid $300,000s. There's no HOA. Lots back to greenbelt and seasonal creeks.
Water depends on the lot. Some parts have water service available; others rely on wells, and given the district's curtailment we confirm the source before pricing. Septic is standard. Dripping Springs ISD serves the neighborhood.
Headwaters, next door, is a production community; Sunset Canyon is not.
Building in Sunset Canyon
Sunset Canyon lots are shaped by their creeks and trees, so we walk each one for the floodway and the canopy before placing the house. Our Matthew, John and Timothy plans fit an acre comfortably; on two acres the larger plans work too.
Where a lot has water service we confirm the tap; where it doesn't we budget the well honestly and design rainwater collection into the roof.

The same process we use everywhere, with what's specific to Sunset Canyon handled up front.
We walk the lot first.
Slope, trees, the view corridor, where the driveway can enter, where the utilities come in. We do this before drawing anything so the plan fits the land instead of getting squeezed onto it.
We run the review packet.
Elevations, materials, the site plan, septic where it applies. Where there's an architectural committee we prepare and submit it, and the final contract price waits until it's approved.
One person to call.
