If you have been searching for a master-planned community in Georgetown that combines Hill Country scenery with modern amenities and new construction homes, Parkside Peninsula deserves a close look. Situated along the banks of the San Gabriel River off FM 2243 (Leander Road) in southwestern Georgetown, this 1,500-acre neighborhood is one of the area’s most thoughtfully developed communities. Rolling terrain, mature Texas live oak trees, and wide-open green spaces give the neighborhood a natural, scenic feel that is rare in a new build community.
Two respected homebuilders — Highland Homes and Perry Homes — currently build within Parkside Peninsula, offering a range of single-story and two-story floor plans on 50-, 60-, and 70-foot lots. Prices generally start in the mid-$500,000s and run into the mid-$700,000s, making this a competitive option in today’s Georgetown market.
Parkside Peninsula keeps HOA dues low, about $70 per quarter, because the neighborhood does not have a pool, amenity center, or other shared amenities. And with Leander ISD schools serving the neighborhood, including the highly regarded Tarvin Elementary, it is easy to see why so many buyers are making their move here.
Whether you are relocating to the Austin area, upsizing from a starter home, or exploring Georgetown’s growing western corridor for the first time, this Parkside Peninsula neighborhood guide covers everything you need to know. Scroll down to explore the full guide.

Parkside Peninsula Photos
What Does the Neighborhood Look Like?
Driving into Parkside Peninsula, the first thing you notice is the landscaping at the entrance — a well-maintained monument sign framed by mature plantings that sets a polished tone for what follows. Inside, the streets are wide, lined with sidewalks, and punctuated by a mix of mature live oak trees (preserved during construction) and newly planted street trees that are filling in nicely.
The homes here reflect a range of architectural styles that give the neighborhood visual interest without feeling disjointed. On any given block you might see a classic brick home with arched window details next to a sleek modern farmhouse with dark trim and large picture windows, or a stone craftsman sitting beside a single-story ranch with board-and-batten accents. Two-car garages are standard on most lots, and front yards are consistently maintained.
Because the community is still actively building, you will see pockets of active construction alongside established streets where residents have already put down roots. The rolling terrain of this part of Georgetown adds subtle elevation changes that make the streetscapes more interesting than the typical flat suburban layout. Some lots back up to green space or have greenbelt views, and the San Gabriel River provides a scenic backdrop along the southern edge of the neighborhood.
What's It Like Living in Parkside Peninsula?
Living in Parkside Peninsula means being part of a community that is still in the process of becoming itself, which has its advantages. Many homes here are newer and many owners moved in recently, which creates a natural openness and community spirit that can be harder to find in older, more established neighborhoods. People are out walking the sidewalks and introducing themselves at the mailbox.
The low HOA fee ($70/quarter) is something residents frequently mention as a bonus. For communities in this price range with this level of amenities, it is unusually affordable. Parkside Peninsula is served by Leander ISD schools, including Tarvin Elementary.
One thing to be aware of: the neighborhood is still under active development, which means construction noise and activity are a normal part of daily life for now. Most residents accept this as the trade-off for buying into a community early, and the new amenities and infrastructure improvements that come with ongoing development are viewed as a positive.
How's the Commute to and From Parkside Peninsula?
Parkside Peninsula sits in the western corridor of Georgetown, with quick access to FM 2243 (Leander Road/Hero Way) and TX-183A. Here is a general sense of drive times under normal conditions:
- Downtown Georgetown: 5–10 minutes
- Wolf Ranch Town Center / Cedar Park: 10–15 minutes
- Domain / North Austin tech corridor: 30–35 minutes
- Downtown Austin: 40–50 minutes (longer during peak rush hour on I-35)
- Austin-Bergstrom International Airport: 40–50 minutes
Commuters heading to the Domain or North Austin tech corridor often find that TX-183A is a reliable alternative to I-35, helping avoid the worst of the highway traffic. For trips further south into Austin, TX-130 (a toll road) offers a faster route around the city's eastern edge.
Georgetown also has a CapMetro bus connection and is one of the northernmost stops on the CapMetro MetroRail Red Line, which runs to downtown Austin. The Leander transit center — roughly 10–15 minutes from the neighborhood — provides another rail option for those who commute by train.
Why Do Home Buyers Choose Parkside Peninsula?
There are several reasons buyers keep circling back to Parkside Peninsula in their search:
- New construction quality without sacrificing setting. The community has preserved a significant amount of natural terrain, mature oak trees, and river access — things that are hard to find in most new build neighborhoods.
- Leander ISD schools. The neighborhood is zoned to Tarvin Elementary (10/10), Stiles Middle (10/10), and Rouse High (8/10).
- Two strong builders. The combination of Highland Homes and Perry Homes gives buyers meaningful choices in floor plans, price points, and lot configurations.
- Low HOA dues. With no pool or amenity center to maintain, HOA dues are about $70 per quarter.
- Georgetown location. Georgetown consistently ranks among the fastest-growing and most desirable cities in Texas, with a historic downtown, strong infrastructure, and a well-regarded city government.
- Proximity to Cedar Park and Leander employment and retail. The 1890 Ranch shopping corridor and the Wolf Ranch Town Center are both close by, offering a wide range of dining, shopping, and services.
