Liberty Hill, TX 78642 路 New-Construction Community
Butler Farms is one of Liberty Hill's most anticipated new-construction communities: a 366-acre master-planned development just off Highway 29 with homes by Saratoga Homes and Meritage Homes, miles of Hill Country nature trails, a resort-style pool, a fishing pond and pier, and Liberty Hill ISD schools. New homes from the $300s.
Overview
Butler Farms is a 366-acre master-planned community on the west side of Liberty Hill, Texas, built on ranch land the Butler family worked for decades. Situated just off Highway 29, it pairs the small-town charm Liberty Hill is known for with a resort-caliber amenity plan: a future pool with a tanning shelf, a stocked fishing pond with a pier, miles of walking and biking trails with fitness stations, and acres of protected greenbelt.
Two quality builders call Butler Farms home: Saratoga Homes and Meritage Homes with its Americana, Boulevard, and Reserve Collections. For families, first-time buyers, and women over 50 planning their best next chapter, Butler Farms delivers new construction in one of the fastest-growing small towns in Central Texas, zoned to Liberty Hill ISD.

The Community
Butler Farms sits on the west side of Liberty Hill, TX 78642, just off Highway 29, the main east-west corridor through the Hill Country. It anchors one of the fastest-growing corners of Williamson County, roughly 15 miles west of Georgetown and about 35 miles northwest of downtown Austin, with 183A an easy drive to Leander and the Austin suburbs.
Butler Farms is a 366-acre master-planned, new-construction community developed by MA Partners, the same team behind the popular MorningStar community. It brings Liberty Hill's small-town charm together with big-city amenities: homes by Saratoga Homes and Meritage Homes, a future resort-style pool, a fishing pond with pier, miles of nature trails, and acres of greenbelt, all inside one thoughtfully planned neighborhood.
The community honors the Butler family, who ranched this land for decades before selling it for development. That heritage carries through the community's design, which keeps the rolling Hill Country character intact with greenbelts, native landscaping, and a farmstead feel that sets Butler Farms apart from denser subdivisions.
The community spans roughly 366 acres, and it is building out in phases. As of mid-2023, more than 200 homes were already completed or under construction, with additional phases releasing as the neighborhood matures. For buyers, that means new inventory comes to market regularly, and early-phase residents get the best lots and the longest runway of appreciation.
Liberty Hill is the fastest-growing city in Williamson County and routinely ranks among the fastest-growing small towns in Texas. People move here for the same reasons families always have: more home for the money, top-rated schools in Liberty Hill ISD, a genuine small-town downtown, and the Hill Country lifestyle, all within reach of the Austin economy. New communities like Butler Farms are the engine of that growth, and they are exactly where the smart money looks first.
Amenities & Outdoor Life
The amenity story at Butler Farms is built on the official community plan: acres of greenbelts, parks, and nature trails today, with the pool, pond, and pavilion amenity center coming online as the community builds out.
Per the official community plan, Butler Farms' amenity package includes a future resort-style pool with a tanning shelf, a covered pavilion, a playground, lawn and sports areas, a stocked catch-and-release fishing pond with a pier, miles of walking and biking nature trails with fitness equipment, and acres of greenbelt and open space. The greenbelts and trail network anchor the community today, while the pool and pond amenities are slated to come online as phases complete.
Yes. The official Butler Farms materials describe a luxurious resident pool coming to the community amenity center, planned with the shallow tanning shelf that buyers in resort communities love for lounging and for little ones. Builders and the developer also reference the swimming pool amenity in phase plans, so expect the full pool experience as the amenity center is constructed. I confirm current amenity status for every buyer, because timing matters when you are choosing between phases.
Yes, it is part of the official plan: a stocked, catch-and-release fishing pond with a pier, marked as a future amenity in the community's own materials. When it lands, families will have a stocked neighborhood lake where kids can learn to fish without leaving home, and the pier gives it that classic Texas pond feel.
This is Butler Farms' signature feature right now. The official site headlines acres of greenbelts, parks, and nature trails, with immaculate walking and biking trails winding through the Hill Country landscape, and fitness equipment positioned along the trail network. Morning walks with the dog, sunset bike rides with the kids, and outdoor workouts are all steps from your front door.
Yes, on every level. There is the playground, the lawn and sports areas, the pool with its tanning shelf and splash-friendly shallow zones, and the pond for catch-and-release fishing. The trail network is perfect for bike trains and after-school adventures, and the community sits zoned to Liberty Hill ISD with Liberty Hill High School right around the corner on Highway 29. It is the kind of neighborhood where childhood gets an upgrade.
The homeowners association manages the common areas, greenbelts, trails, parks, and the amenity center that keeps Butler Farms looking its best. Exact HOA dues are set by current management documents and vary by phase, so I pull the precise fee and the rules for the specific home you are considering before you fall in love with it. Never buy on a marketing summary; buy on the actual documents.
Homes & Builders
Butler Farms keeps the builder lineup tight and the quality high: Saratoga Homes and Meritage Homes, with three Meritage collections to choose from.
Two respected builders are active at Butler Farms: Saratoga Homes, a Texas builder known for quality construction and flexible floor plans, and Meritage Homes, one of the nation's largest and most energy-focused production builders. Meritage sells through three collections here: the Americana Collection, the Boulevard Collection, and the Reserve Collection, each with its own size range and price point.
Meritage's Americana Collection is the entry point, with roughly 1,240 to 2,024 square feet in 3 to 4 bedroom plans starting around the mid-$300s. The Boulevard Collection spans roughly 1,828 to 3,016 square feet with 3 to 5 bedrooms, running from around $350,000 to $480,000. The Reserve Collection offers roughly 1,720 to 2,852 square feet with 3 to 5 bedrooms, from about $325,000 to $410,000. Availability shifts as phases sell, so I verify what is actually open in each collection before we tour.
Meritage's floor plans at Butler Farms come with a genuinely modern, functional layout and a strong included-features list: walk-in showers, covered patios, and designer-curated interior packages that save you from piecemeal upgrades. Energy-smart construction is Meritage's calling card, so expect lower utility bills baked into the house from day one. I review the actual spec sheet for each collection, because builder "included" lists are where the real value gets hidden and found.
Saratoga Homes builds at Butler Farms with plans running roughly 1,700 to 2,800 square feet in 3 to 5 bedroom configurations, generally priced from the low $300,000s into the low $400s depending on plan and lot. Saratoga is known in Texas for quality construction and a more personalized, semi-custom feel, so buyers who want to put their own stamp on a new home often land here. Confirm Saratoga's exact feature set and current lot availability with me, since they release inventory in phases too.
Across the community, Butler Farms homes generally start in the $300s and stretch toward the upper $400s depending on builder, collection, square footage, and lot. That places Butler Farms squarely in Liberty Hill's most in-demand price band, and well below comparable new construction inside Austin proper. Because builders reprice phases and run incentives on spec homes, the number on the website is never the whole story; I get you the real price, the lot premium, and the current builder incentives.
Schools
Butler Farms is zoned to Liberty Hill Independent School District (Liberty Hill ISD), one of the fastest-growing and most highly regarded school districts in Texas. The district's reputation for academics, facilities, and community support is a major reason families choose Liberty Hill, and new communities like Butler Farms are feeding that growth with new campuses opening across the district.
Under Liberty Hill ISD's attendance boundaries, Butler Farms homes feed Liberty Hill Elementary, Liberty Hill Middle School, and Liberty Hill High School, and the community sits directly adjacent to Liberty Hill High School along Highway 29, a commute measured in minutes. Attendance zones shift as the district grows, so I verify the current boundary for your exact address and phase before you commit. For official district information, visit Liberty Hill ISD.
Liberty Hill ISD consistently earns strong marks for academic performance, teachers, and facilities, and it has kept pace with explosive growth by opening new campuses and upgrading programs. Families also love that the district stays small-town in feel even as it grows, with involved parents, active booster clubs, and schools close enough that drop-off is part of the neighborhood routine. For buyers with kids, that combination is hard to beat in Central Texas.
Location & Convenience
Butler Farms wins on location the way it wins on lifestyle: Highway 29 at your frontage, Liberty Hill's downtown minutes away, and the 183A and TX-29 corridors connecting you to the whole Austin metro.
Strong for a Hill Country address. Highway 29 runs along the community's frontage, TX-29 carries you east to Georgetown and I-35, and 183A drops south toward Leander and connects to the Austin tech corridors. Leander runs roughly 10 to 12 minutes, Georgetown about 21 to 27 minutes, Round Rock around 29 to 33 minutes, and Northwest Austin approximately 25 to 30 minutes. It is the small-town commute with big-city reach.
Lake Travis and the Hill Country are your playground. The north shore of the lake sits roughly 20 to 25 miles away, an easy afternoon drive for boating, swimming, and lakeside dining, and the rolling Hill Country roads around Liberty Hill are made for weekend drives and hiking. You get the quiet of small-town living with big-lake recreation a tank of gas away.
Liberty Hill's historic downtown is minutes from Butler Farms, with locally owned restaurants, boutiques, and coffee shops like Dahlia Cafe and Forrest Coffee House, plus drive-through coffee along the Highway 29 corridor including Mojo Coffee. For major retail, Georgetown is roughly 15 minutes east with its square and shopping districts, Round Rock Premium Outlets is about 20 to 25 minutes, and Cedar Park is roughly 25 minutes south. Everyday errands stay local; the big shopping days are an easy drive.
Georgetown is about 15 miles east on TX-29, roughly 21 to 27 minutes. Leander is southeast on 183A, about 9 miles and 10 to 12 minutes. Round Rock runs about 20 to 24 miles via TX-29 and 183A, roughly 29 to 33 minutes. Northwest Austin and the 183A technology corridor land around 25 to 30 minutes. That puts the entire Williamson County job, shopping, dining, and entertainment market within one easy drive.

Buying in Butler Farms
With the full-market view most buyers never get. I know which Meritage collection and which Saratoga plans are actually open, which phases release next, what each builder's included features and incentives are, and what similar homes in Liberty Hill really sell for. I match you to the right floor plan and lot, negotiate the builder contract with your best interests first, and walk you through every step from pre-approval to closing. Lisa Copeland leads a 900+ Agent real estate organization operating across 29 countries that has closed more than 5 billion in sales over the last six years, and that experience shows up in the details.
Liberty Hill is home turf. I have helped families buy and sell across Santa Rita Ranch, Rancho Sienna, Blanco Canyon, and every other neighborhood in the city, and my team of over 900 agents operates across Central Texas with deep relationships at every local builder. I know the attendance zones, the HOA documents, the lot premiums, and the market trends before they hit the news. When you buy with me, you get the entire team's market intelligence behind one decision.
The fundamentals are compelling. Butler Farms is a 366-acre, amenity-rich master-planned community in Liberty Hill, the fastest-growing city in Williamson County, zoned to a top-rated district, with homes entering the market from the $300s when Liberty Hill's overall median sits well above that. Buyers in early phases capture the largest appreciation runway as the pool, pond, and trails come online. You are buying a home you can love and an asset positioned in one of the strongest growth corridors in Texas.
Lisa's Take
Butler Farms is the community I recommend when a buyer tells me they want new construction without giving up character: a Hill Country setting, a real amenity plan, and the small-town heartbeat of Liberty Hill, all behind a builder lineup I trust. It is building out beautifully, and the families already here are getting greenbelts and trails before the pool landings.
For my clients over 50, this community works on a different level: single-level and open floor plans, walk-in showers as a standard feature, covered patios made for morning coffee, and trails that keep you moving. For growing families, it is Liberty Hill ISD with the high school practically next door. For investors, it is the fastest-growing city in Williamson County priced from the $300s.
New phases sell, and the best lots go first. Call me and I will show you what is actually available in Butler Farms right now, what it really costs with upgrades and incentives, and whether it fits the life you are building. It is never too late to become who you were meant to be, and sometimes that starts with the right front door.
