A couple exits south is the Wells Branch area - with some very nice newer neighborhoods tucked away in between 35 and MOPAC (there are some older sections as well). It is land locked, relatively unknown at this point, and some of the realtors here have said it should see much appreciation in the near future because it is all developed, has great local amenities and is so convenient to the major highways and toll roads, (last free exit!) and is close to the proposed train station at Howard lane.

(see my previous question here: What is the trend for 78728?)

AND, IT JUST SO HAPPENS - my house is for sale... $229,900. check out the virtual tour and call your realtor (or the one listed on the tour)... I'm no expert and don't know how this area stacks up against others for investment, but it makes a great home - if I wasn't relocating for work, I'd never leave!

good luck in your search.

BEST ANSWER
I will tell you, my home is for sale on Jewelfish Cove - a big cul de sac, Round Rock ISD, and pretty close to Arboretum, Domain, La Fonterra. And traffic permitting, only about 25 minutes from downtown. Also, just less than a mile is a nice little strip mall with a cool coffee shop, decent local Italian place, and other conveniences. AND, the best part is the 3-4 miles of wooded hike and bike trails. Of course I am biased, but If you're looking for a quiet place with some space for your dogs, family or visiting friends, its perfect... we're relocating to Houston, otherwise we'd never leave. less than $250k: $229,900.

Check out the virtual tour and call the realtor if interested!
