Pools designed for Caliza Reserve's Hill Country lots.
Caliza Reserve is a new, tree-lined luxury community off Boerne Stage Road, built by Toll Brothers and Chesmar Homes on generous half-acre, 100-foot-wide homesites — a rarer combination of new construction and real elbow room.
Every Caliza Reserve pool we build is engineered to its exact half-acre lot, submitted through the community's design review the right way the first time, and finished in durable PebbleTec.
Built by two brothers and career firefighters, J. Oliver Pools brings the same accountability to every Caliza Reserve project. Most custom gunite pools here run between $70,000 and $140,000, matching the scale of Caliza Reserve's half-acre homesites.
Caliza Reserve's half-acre lots give real design room for a pool, spa, and outdoor kitchen without crowding the tree-lined setting the community is known for.
Life on Boerne's newest half-acre homesites.
Caliza Reserve sits off Boerne Stage Road in one of the most scenic corners of Boerne, minutes from Fair Oaks Ranch and San Antonio. Toll Brothers and Chesmar Homes are building here on generous half-acre, 100-foot-wide homesites — a tree-lined, serene setting rare for new construction this close to the city.
Boerne ISD zones Caliza Reserve to Viola Wilson Elementary, Boerne Middle School South, and Champion High School. Half-acre lots give families room for the pool most subdivisions can't fit, without leaving the newer-construction convenience most Caliza Reserve buyers are looking for.
Caliza Reserve's lots sit on the thin, rocky soil typical of the Edwards Plateau. We run a geotechnical soil study on every project before design begins, engineering the gunite shell for the limestone and clay actually under your yard.
As a newer community, Caliza Reserve carries builder design guidelines for pools and outdoor structures. We confirm current requirements and manage the submittal so approval doesn't stall a build timeline.
The half-acre lot size means most Caliza Reserve homeowners have real room for a pool plus a separate spa and outdoor kitchen — we design the whole backyard as one plan rather than adding pieces one at a time.
A well-built custom pool suits Caliza Reserve's luxury new-construction positioning well — buyers here expect finished outdoor living, and a properly permitted, design-approved gunite pool supports that value at resale.
