Sustainable Living in a Masterfully Planned Community

Looking for a new home in a Boerne community that prioritize sustainability and green living? Esperanza is a master-planned community in the Texas Hill Country that goes beyond just beautiful homes and landscapes. Committed to environmentally friendly practices, Esperanza leads the way with innovative water conservation methods, sustainable materials, and forward-thinking design. From reclaimed water systems to eco-friendly landscaping, Esperanza ensures that homeowners can enjoy modern amenities while reducing their environmental impact.

Texas Living Fence

Esperanza residents also take part in The Lookout Group’s innovative Texas Living Fence initiative, which combines sustainability with aesthetic appeal. This environmentally-friendly fencing solution for homeowners uses native plants and trees to create natural boundaries along streetscapes and between houses. Ultimately enhancing the community’s beauty while providing long-lasting privacy. Unlike traditional fences that can degrade over time, the Texas Living Fence grows and matures, becoming more lush and dense as the years pass. Not only does this initiative promote greener living by reducing the need for synthetic materials, but it also supports local ecosystems by encouraging biodiversity and providing habitats for native wildlife. The Texas Living Fence perfectly complements Esperanza’s commitment to sustainable development, offering residents a green, visually appealing alternative to traditional fencing that improves with age and requires minimal maintenance.

Reclaimed Water System

In Central Texas, water is a precious resource, not to be squandered on landscaping. So how can you have beautiful lawns and be “water wise”? You use reclaimed water. Throughout Esperanza, all wastewater is piped to Boerne’s treatment plant and then returned via “purple pipe” and metered to each home. It’s cheaper and a non-guilty way to keep your yard, our fountains, and esplanades beautiful. Esperanza is one of few Texas communities that has gone to this great expense. Next time you’re driving along Hwy 46, be sure to look for our Esperanza Water Tower. We take great pride in our partnership with the City of Boerne to construct the city’s first reclaimed water system.

Every Esperanza Households Receives Complimentary Membership

Even though 25% of Esperanza is dedicated to open space, parks, lakes, and nature trails, sometimes you find yourself needing every more of the Great Outdoors. That’s why every new homeowner in Esperanza is gifted a complimentary 2-year membership to Cibolo Nature Center. In support of their mission to promote the conservation of natural resources through education and stewardship, our gift of membership allows Esperanza residents to participate in Cibolo Nature Center events and activities year-round. ⁠
