Corley Farms is a new-construction master-planned community developed by PulteGroup, located just west of I-10 in Boerne, Texas. Three builders — Centex, Pulte Homes, and Perry Homes — offer entry-level through premium pricing in the same community, making it one of the most flexible new-build options in the Hill Country. Prices start from the mid-$300Ks for Centex plans and reach the mid-$600Ks for Perry Homes on larger lots.
Character and Vibe
Corley Farms is a suburban-style new-construction community — not a gated Hill Country estate or a rural acreage development. What it offers is new homes at competitive prices, a amenity center with pool and courts, and access to Boerne ISD schools. The community features curved streets with cul-de-sacs, preserved mature trees in common areas, and Hill Country views from many lots. It is a practical, value-driven choice rather than a luxury play.
Builders and Price Ranges
- Centex Homes (40-foot lots): Starting from ~$335,000 — 3 to 5 bedrooms, 1,501–2,601 sq ft
- Pulte Homes (40-foot lots): Starting from ~$407,000 — 3 to 5 bedrooms, 1,637–3,440 sq ft, with prices up to ~$633,000
- Perry Homes (50-foot lots): Starting from ~$613,000 — 2,099–3,553 sq ft with premium finishes
All builders offer open-concept floor plans with island kitchens, covered patios, and flexible living spaces. The price spread within a single community is unusual — it lets family members or friends relocating together choose different price tiers while living in the same neighborhood.
Lot Sizes
Lot widths range from 40 to 50 feet depending on the builder section. Standard lot sizes are approximately 0.12 to 0.15 acres — smaller than the Hill Country average but typical for new-construction communities at this price point. Perry Homes' 50-foot lot section offers the most outdoor space.
School District
Boerne ISD — A-rated from the Texas Education Agency for six consecutive years. Assigned schools include Kendall Elementary (rated 9/10 by GreatSchools), Boerne Middle School South (8/10), and Samuel V. Champion High School (8/10). These ratings are a significant draw for California families navigating unfamiliar school systems.
Community Amenities
- Resort-style pool and clubhouse
- Basketball and pickleball courts
- Playscape and playground
- Walking trails
- Hill Country views from multiple vantage points throughout the community
Location and Commute
Corley Farms is accessed via Scenic Loop Road / Cascade Caverns Road, approximately 2 miles from I-10 at Exit 543. The drive to downtown San Antonio is roughly 30 to 40 minutes. The community is near The Shops at La Cantera, The Rim Shopping Center, and Six Flags Fiesta Texas. Major San Antonio employers — USAA, UTSA, Valero, NuStar, and the San Antonio Medical Center — are all within commuting range.
HOA and Fees
HOA fees are $300 quarterly (approximately $1,200 per year, as of mid-2026), covering community maintenance, amenity center access, and common area landscaping. Review the CC&Rs and financial statements during your option period for current rates and any pending assessments.
What California Buyers Should Know
- Entry-level pricing is real. Starting in the mid-$300Ks for new construction in an A-rated school district is a price point that simply does not exist in any California metro.
- Smaller lots are the tradeoff. At 0.12–0.15 acres, these lots are smaller than the Hill Country norm. If acreage is a priority, Fair Oaks Ranch or Spring Branch offer more land at higher price points.
- New construction means warranty coverage. Builder warranties, modern energy efficiency, and code-compliant systems reduce near-term maintenance costs.
- Inventory may be available. Move-in-ready homes are sometimes available — no 12–18 month build wait.
Community Characteristics
Corley Farms attracts buyers who want new construction at an accessible price point. First-time buyers relocating from California often evaluate this community for its pricing relative to California markets. Families who prioritize school ratings over lot size may find the school assignments and home prices align with their needs. Buyers who want proximity to I-10 and San Antonio's commercial corridor should verify that the community's location and character match their specific preferences.
Considerations for Different Buyer Profiles
Buyers who want large lots (0.5+ acres) or a rural Hill Country setting should note that standard lot sizes in this community are 0.12 to 0.15 acres. Anyone seeking a gated community with resort-level amenities should research whether the available amenity package meets their expectations. Buyers who prefer established neighborhoods with mature trees and custom architecture over new construction may find other communities better aligned with their priorities. Verify builder pricing, floor plans, and lot availability directly with each builder's sales office.
