A Letter from the Owners
Lilla Blackburn Sivek, Frank Hillbolt & Lisa Mayer

As spring settles into Fayette County, we are reminded of just how special this season is.

Wildflowers are beginning to bloom across the countryside, bluebonnets lining the roads and fields coming back to life, and alongside them, we are seeing a renewed energy in the market. Spring has always been a time of fresh starts, and this year is no exception. Activity is picking up, new opportunities are emerging, and there is a sense of momentum that feels both exciting and promising.

To our clients, friends, and community, thank you for continuing to…

A home that knows exactly who it is: layered, collected, and unafraid to let color tell the story.

Every year, the design world pauses to see what Pantone declares as the Color of the Year. This year’s pick, called Cloud Dancer, is a soft, barely-there neutral meant to evoke calm, simplicity, and quiet elegance.

And while we appreciate a peaceful palette…we’ll be honest.

Here in Round Top and across Fayette County, we’re seeing something very different unfold. Homes aren’t whispering. They’re telling stories. And color…think thoughtful, layered, intentional color…is very much having a moment.

Not a trendy one. A timeless one.

Neutral Isn’t New. Personality Is!
