Horseshoe Bay approves cottages

Several new cottages are coming to Horseshoe Bay near the intersection of FM 2147 and Horseshoe Bay North Boulevard.

During an Aug. 25 meeting, the Horseshoe Bay City Council approved a request to allow Sterling Creek Homes Inc. to build nine new cottages at the same time, which exceeded the city’s usual limit of two active permits for speculative single-family or two-family homes.

The development will be Sterling Creek Homes’ first subdivision in Horseshoe Bay. The company demonstrated the financial ability, personnel, and resources needed to complete the homes, citing its previous work in Kingsland, Fredericksburg, and other resort communities as evidence of its ability to complete projects on deadline.

During a previous council meeting, several residents raised concerns about parking near the development, which prompted a response from Sterling Creek Homes before the council’s approval of the subdivision.

“We made promises to the neighbors that we would minimize the impact, both construction and everything,” Jeff Kelly of Sterling Creek Homes told the council. “That’s one of the reasons we come in front of you today to request your approval to honor that promise.”
