Balcones Creek
Gated Hill Country living where established charm, resort-style amenities, and a true sense of community come together in one of Boerne's most beloved neighborhoods.
Welcome to Balcones Creek
Balcones Creek is one of Boerne's most established and sought-after gated communities. Tucked into the Texas Hill Country just off IH-10, this neighborhood offers the kind of lifestyle that's hard to find: quiet, tree-lined streets, resort-style amenities, and a community that genuinely knows its neighbors.
Built by some of the Hill Country's most respected builders — Highland Homes, Perry Homes, and Sitterle Homes — Balcones Creek offers a diverse mix of home styles and price points, all within the highly sought-after Boerne ISD attendance zone. From the community pool to the historic on-site farmhouse and the charming community garden, this neighborhood has character that sets it apart.
One of the most unique features of Balcones Creek is its proximity to the Boerne Stage Field private air station, offering a rare and memorable backdrop that you won't find in any other Boerne neighborhood.

A few things that make this neighborhood unlike anywhere else in the Hill Country.
Only in Boerne
Your Backyard Has a Runway
Balcones Creek backs directly up to Boerne Stage Airfield (FAA code 5C1) — a public-use general aviation airport that has been operating since 1986. Residents get front-row views of small planes, gliders, and the occasional aerial tour taking off over the Hill Country. There is truly no other neighborhood in the area where you can watch a sunset and a Cessna at the same time.
Living History
A Farmhouse That Predates the Neighborhood by Decades
When the land was developed, builders made the choice to preserve the original farmhouse that stood on the property. That historic structure still sits within the community today, a quiet nod to the working ranch land this neighborhood was built on. Not many master-planned communities can say their history is literally still standing.
Established Community
Over a Decade in the Making
Balcones Creek broke ground in 2014 and was developed across multiple phases — which means the earliest residents have watched this community grow from the ground up. Today it is one of the most mature master-planned neighborhoods in the Boerne corridor, with established trees, finished amenities, and a community that actually knows its neighbors.
Resort-Level Amenities
A Junior Olympic Pool. In a Neighborhood.
The community pool is not a standard subdivision splash zone. Balcones Creek features a junior Olympic-sized pool, a separate children's pool, and a splash pad — plus a full amenity center. It is the kind of setup you expect at a resort, not in a residential neighborhood off IH-10.
Rare Find
One of the Only Neighborhoods With a Community Garden
Balcones Creek has its own resident garden with individual planting plots — something you almost never see in a gated Texas subdivision. Whether you are raising tomatoes, herbs, or flowers, there is a plot with your name on it. It has become one of the most beloved and unexpected perks of living here.
By the Numbers
Three Sections. One Community.
Balcones Creek is organized into three distinct sections: The Estates, The Gardens, and The Preserves — each with its own character, lot sizes, and home designs. Five builders shaped the neighborhood: Highland Homes, Perry Homes, Sitterle Homes, M/I Homes, and CalAtlantic Homes. Homes range from roughly 1,773 to nearly 5,000 square feet, meaning there is a right fit for almost every stage of life.
School District Bragging Rights
Six Straight "A" Ratings from the TEA
Boerne ISD — the district that serves Balcones Creek — has earned six consecutive "A" ratings from the Texas Education Agency. That is not a marketing claim. That is a documented track record. For families, it is one of the biggest reasons the resale market here stays consistently active year after year.
Location Win
No City Taxes. All the City Perks.
Balcones Creek sits within Boerne's extraterritorial jurisdiction, which means residents pay no city property taxes while still having quick access to downtown Boerne, La Cantera, The Rim, and the entire San Antonio metro via IH-10. For a neighborhood this well-amenitized, that tax advantage is genuinely rare.
