With home prices starting in the $240,000s, not only does D.R. Horton's Montebella bring you everything you'd expect from Hill Country living, the 1.95 percent tax rate and up to 100-by-130-foot wooded lots make this one of the best home buying opportunities you'll find in the Lake Travis ISD. With interest rates so low and a low tax rate, your monthly investment could be as low as $1,800.* Hill Country living and Lake Travis schools have never been so affordable.

Even though you're in the Hill Country, great shopping and restaurants are nearby. The Hill Country Galleria, The Shops at the Galleria, Home Depot, Target, H-E-B, Randalls, Cinemark movie theatre, Chili's, Waterloo Ice House, Iron Cactus, Amy's Ice Creams (just to name a few) and the quaint town of Dripping Springs are only 7 miles away.

If your family enjoys the outdoors, then you're in luck, Hamilton Pool Nature Preserve, Westcave Preserve, Reimer's Ranch Park, the Pedernales River and Founder's Memorial Park and Pool are all just a few minutes away.

Or if you choose to stay close to home, then your family can enjoy fishing and swimming at Deer Creek Lake. Montebella is located to take full advantage of some of the Hill Country's most scenic and active areas.

The schools are very convenient as well. The kids will attend Bee Caves Elementary and Lake Travis middle and high schools.

With six inventory homes available, some with wood floors, tile and stone exteriors and all with energy-efficient features and a solid home warranty, Montebella has the home of your dreams. On top of that, D.R. Horton has been building homes in the Austin area for nearly 50 years. And let's face it, that kind of stability really is an important consideration when one is dealing with a purchase as large as a home.
