Forest Ridge – Round Rock Texas

Forest Ridge is an established community in Round Rock, Texas.  Located off  CR122, better known as Red Bud Lane, Forest Ridge is on the east side of Round Rock.  Homes in this community were built in the mid to late 1990’s. Resale homes vary in upgrades and price – as long as you like the layout of the home, the upgrades can come later.

The area of Round Rock around CR122 is bustling in growth with home and commercial development. At CR122 and Gattis School Road is a grocery store, video rental, a few fast food eateries and a pharmacy. As this area expands, so does the commercial development up and down Gattis School Road. Shopping in the Round Rock area offers Round Rock Premium Outlets and La Frontera; here you can find everything from Sam’s Club, Lowe’s Home Depot, Target, Hobby Lobby, World Market, Kohl’s, Office Max, Best Buy and the list goes on and on.

Getting around in the Round Rock area has become much easier within the last few years.  With the 130 Toll within 10 miles, accessing south parts of Austin is much easier than in the “old days”.  Traveling down the 45 Extension offers a straight connect to Mopac, (aka Loop 1), which will help your commute to the downtown area. I think having options for a commute other than I35 are always a welcome, I would much rather be moving than sitting in traffic.

If you like to golf, Forest Creek Golf Club is just right down the road. Memberships are open to the public and my golf friends really enjoy this course.  Maybe some day I’ll take up golfing…
