Kissing Tree

Showcased by an Independent Real Estate Expert

Kissing Tree is a gated 55+ community spanning approximately 1,300 acres in the foothills of Texas Hill Country in San Marcos. Developed by Brookfield Residential, this active adult destination combines resort-style living with a convenient location roughly midway between Austin and San Antonio. The community is planned for approximately 3,150 homes at completion, with multiple neighborhoods, hundreds of acres of green space, and 24-hour security with a staffed entry guardhouse and neighborhood patrols.

At the heart of Kissing Tree is The Mix, a 20-acre amenity campus featuring Independence Hall, a two-story fitness center, indoor junior-Olympic lap pool, outdoor resort pool and hot tub, pickleball, bocce, and extensive social spaces. Golfers can play an onsite 18-hole Audubon-rated course professionally managed by Troon, complemented by practice facilities and a putting course. Tarbox & Brown offers onsite dining at the Golf Clubhouse, while Independence Hall includes a bar and Biergarten. Eighteen miles of trails and more than 100 monthly activities provide even more ways to stay active and connected.

New homes by Brookfield Residential and David Weekley Homes include Traditional Homes, Cottages, and Villas, providing options for buyers seeking everything from an efficient, lower-maintenance residence to a more spacious Hill Country home. Single-level designs, flexible living spaces, outdoor living options, and distinctive architectural styles complement the active adult lifestyle. With downtown San Marcos, rivers, shopping, healthcare, and Texas Hill Country recreation nearby, Kissing Tree offers a well-rounded setting for an active next chapter. Request More Information now!
