Great Hills
Great Hills is a great neighborhood for people who like beautiful views, winding roads and living on a cul de sac.

The resulting home sites offer panoramas highlighted by creeks, trees, fairways and other homes in the distance.

Most of the homes were built in the '80s, The price range for homes in Great Hills is $320,000 to $450,000 though you can sometimes finds homes priced at more than $500,000.
