In addition to this, Wolf Ranch is also easily accessible to IH35, which can take you to Waco, Texas, Dallas, 79 miles, and The Silos.
If executed successfully, Wolf Ranch will be one of the largest in Central Texas. Home prices range from $370,000 to over a million dollars, with home sizes ranging from 1,300 square feet to 4,800 square feet. HOA dues start at $200 quarterly and can cost up to $544 quarterly.

Best of all, there is an outdoor grill that overlooks the magnificent San Gabriel River. Aside from these, a dedicated lifestyle director is also in charge of planning all neighborhood fun, including shopping, dining, and entertainment activities, most of which can be found in the Wolf Ranch Town Center. Residents of Wolf Ranch can go to Wolf Ranch Elementary School, James Tippit Middle School, and East View High School.
