Wiley / Batte Ranch The adjoining property is 541 acres that has approximately 3,100 ft. along the Pedernales River next to Lake Travis. This beautiful property has been in the same family for generations preserved as a wildlife refuge and extends all the way to Old Ferry Road. Overview & Area Highlights Travis Club which is 3.5 miles from Resort Ranch recently announced over $90 million in sales for phase one of their residential homesites, which represents about 75% of the phase. Last month they unveiled the next phase of development, offering 48 new homesites for predevelopment sale within the 1,500-acre master-planned community. Homesites in this new phase range in price from $700,000 to $3.4 million, with sizes varying from 0.43 acres to 3.87 acres. The recent purchase of Castletop (475 acres) and RGK Ranch (1,507 acres) by Travis County reflects a significant reduction in the local market for available land. The purchases, which will transform the properties into a public park, represents a major effort and underscores the limited amount of property left in this region that would allow options to accommodate the demanding need.
