72 La Escalera – “The Story”

The change from city to the Hill Country is apparent as you enter Sendero Ranch and pass through the gate. Sendero Ranch is a secure, serene, and secluded area. The natural, preserve-like surroundings of this community offer sightings of White-tailed deer, Axis deer, turkeys, raccoons, foxes, road runners, and even the elusive Texas Ringtail Cat. Sendero Ranch residents also enjoy the benefit of no city property taxes. The tree tunneled driveway welcomes one home to this peaceful wooded nearly three-acre lot. Throughout the property are a variety of mature trees such as the Texas Oak, Live Oak, Red Oak, and Texas Juniper.
