Steiner Ranch Austin ♦ Neighborhood Features
Steiner Ranch is a very nice, largely upscale neighborhood in the Hill Country west of Austin. The original development of this beautiful 4,600 acres of Hill Country real estate began in 1988. Building of new homes is continuing by several builders in May 2011, but the number of new homes left to build in early 2011 was less than 200. Steiner Ranch is referred to by developer Taylor Woodrow (now Taylor Morrison) as “The Land between the Lakes,” i.e., Lake Travis and Lake Austin. It is a great master-planned community which has become home to many families.
