Living in Walsh Ranch

Walsh Ranch is a small west Round Rock neighborhood off Sam Bass Road, close to Behrens Ranch. It was platted from 2006 to 2008 and has about 250 lots, so it feels like a few quiet streets rather than a big master-planned community.

It has a Round Rock address but sits outside Round Rock city limits, in the Walsh Ranch MUD, which owns the neighborhood park.

How I serve Walsh Ranch

In a neighborhood this size, only a few homes sell in a given year, so pricing leans on those few sales plus the bigger neighborhoods around it. I do that comparison carefully, because one odd sale can move the picture a lot.

The park and the neighborhood

The Walsh Ranch MUD owns a neighborhood park on Alexandrite Way. For more trail and pool, Behrens Ranch and Sendero Springs are close by.

Ask for the current HOA dues and the MUD tax rate on any home you're considering, since both are part of the cost of owning here.

Homes and schools

Homes here date from about 2006 on, so roofs and HVAC systems may be among the first big items an original owner has to answer for in a sale.

Walsh Ranch is in Round Rock ISD: Cactus Ranch Elementary, then Walsh Middle School, then Round Rock High School. Confirm the assignment for any address you're considering.

Getting around and everyday life

The way in is off Sam Bass Road. Because Walsh Ranch is outside city limits, compare the full tax rate with homes inside Round Rock, not only the list price.
