Why build in Dripping Springs & Driftwood?

Dripping Springs has earned its reputation as the "Gateway to the Hill Country" — and for good reason. Rolling terrain, larger lots, a strong sense of community, and enough distance from the city to feel like a true escape while staying within 30–40 minutes of downtown Austin.

Driftwood sits just next door with an even more rural character — larger acreage, iconic venues like Salt Lick BBQ, and some of the most beautiful raw land in the region. Both areas are experiencing significant growth as Austin families seek more space without sacrificing quality.

What I love about building here

These communities are ideal for Build On Your Lot projects because lot sizes tend to be generous, there's more flexibility in what you can build, and the land itself — cedar trees, limestone outcroppings, rolling views — makes for stunning homesites.

David Weekley Homes in Hill Country

David Weekley's one and two-story plans work beautifully on Hill Country lots. I'll help you select a plan that takes advantage of your views, works with your topography, and maximizes your outdoor living space — a key feature in this market.

Many of my Dripping Springs clients prioritize large covered patios, outdoor kitchens, and pool-ready backyards. We plan for all of it from day one so there are no surprises during construction.
