Headwaters
Perched along the scenic hills of Dripping Springs, the Headwaters neighborhood in 78620 is more than just a modern community, it’s a place where the area’s natural beauty and local history come together in meaningful ways. For families considering a move to Dripping Springs, Headwaters offers a glimpse into how thoughtful development can honor the past while creating space for the future.
The land that now makes up Headwaters was once part of a working ranch, typical of the rural roots that shaped much of Hays County. Rolling terrain, native trees, and panoramic views defined the landscape long before homes were built here. When development began, care was taken to preserve those features, protecting greenbelt areas, integrating trails, and keeping the expansive Hill Country feel intact. The result is a neighborhood that feels like it belongs here, not one that was imposed on the land.
For families looking to be close to Dripping Springs schools, enjoy access to trails and parks, and still feel connected to the area's authentic heritage, Headwaters strikes a rare balance between past and present.

Justin assisted us in identifying and purchasing two properties, and we highly recommend working with him. Justin made the process seamless due to his real estate knowledge and experience, communication style, and overall responsiveness. We were out of town during the purchase process, and Justin was in front of every detail. He's relatable, kind, and genuine... the best.
Brittany Sorley
Justin and his team were incredible! They were patient in our search for the perfect home. He was very honest, and informative with each showing and never turned down an opportunity for us to look at a home once or sometimes twice! He found the answers to all of questions about properties and continuously checked in during the process. We cannot recommend Justin and his team enough!
