La Cima San Marcos: New Homes in the Texas Hill Country

If you thought San Marcos was just a college town, think again. Tucked into the rolling foothills of the Texas Hill Country, the La Cima master-planned community offers stunning scenery, award-winning builders, and a lifestyle designed for families who want both convenience and connection. Whether you work in Austin, San Antonio, or right here in San Marcos, La Cima puts you perfectly in the middle of it all.

Why Choose La Cima

La Cima spans over 2,400 acres, with nearly 800 acres dedicated to open parkland. Once completed, the community will feature 2,500 new homes from some of the most trusted names in homebuilding:

Homes are being built on 50-foot and 70-foot lots, with starting prices in the low $500s. Whether you’re looking for your first home, a family-friendly upgrade, or a Hill Country retreat, there’s a floor plan to match.

Resort-Style Amenities

La Cima is more than a neighborhood — it’s a lifestyle. Current and future amenities include:

  • Amenity center with splash pad, playground, and gathering space
  • Central Park-inspired community hub(coming soon) with two pools — one for quiet relaxation and one for family fun
  • Clubhouse, fitness center, and lounges
  • 10+ miles of scenic trails for walking, jogging, or biking
  • Acres of green space for picnics, play, and outdoor fun

Whether you’re raising kids, working remotely, or simply enjoying Texas sunsets, La Cima offers something for everyone.

Location, Schools & Everyday Convenience

Located off Ranch Road 12, La Cima keeps you close to everything that makes Central Texas special:

  • Schools: Zoned to San Marcos CISD (Hernandez Elementary, Miller Middle, San Marcos High).
  • Shopping: HEB, Target, Walmart Supercenter, and the popular Tanger Outlets are just minutes away.
  • Healthcare: Nearby urgent care centers and hospitals.
  • Lifestyle: San Marcos is known for outdoor recreation, from river tubing to Hill Country hiking.

And if one partner works in Austin and the other in San Antonio? La Cima is right in the middle, saving time (and sanity) on your commute.

Why Work With a Realtor on New Construction?

One of the biggest myths about buying a new build is that you don’t need a real estate agent. The truth? The builder pays the buyer’s agent compensation, which means you get expert guidance at no cost to you. From negotiating upgrades to explaining contracts, your agent is your advocate through the entire process.

At Holley Homes Realty, we’ve helped hundreds of Central Texans buy, build, and move into their dream homes. Our role is to make the process smoother, smarter, and less stressful.
