The Real Estate

Homes in Rough Hollow

Rough Hollow is mostly newer construction, with homes built over the past two decades by regional and custom builders. You find a range from move-up family homes to larger estates, many positioned for lake or Hill Country views along the ridgelines above Hurst Creek.

Because it is a planned community, homes tend to share consistent quality and modern layouts, and a homeowners association maintains the amenities and common areas. Will can walk you through the sections, the view lots, and how the amenity access works so you buy with a clear picture.
