Stratus Properties Inc. has secured financing for, and commenced construction of, Holden Hills, a new development comprised of 475 custom residences on 495 acres within the established Barton Creek community in southwest Austin. Stratus considers Holden Hills, which is the last remaining single-family project in the Barton Creek community, to be a crown jewel of its 30-plus years of residential development. Located within the established Barton Creek Community, Holden Hills is designed to promote sustainability, energy conservation, and residents' health and wellness, both inside and outside of the homes.

Stratus' research confirms that buyers want a safe home, built to protect their health, both mind and body, and the natural environment. The Holden Hills property is planned to maximize onsite renewable energy production to meet the community's needs, with any excess energy to be returned to the local electrical grid. Stratus is also committing to use safe construction materials essential to creating a healthy living space.
