The vibe
The neighborhood still carries the name of the man who built it. Kingsland historians record that ranch owner Shirley Williams developed his ranch a piece at a time and built an airstrip near the Colorado River arm of the lake in 1959. That was less than a decade after the Lower Colorado River Authority's Granite Shoals Dam formed the lake in 1950. The lake was renamed Lake LBJ in 1965. Kingsland itself is older. It grew up where the Llano and Colorado rivers meet, on land Martin D. King bought in 1877, and by 1901 it had a railroad resort hotel, the Antlers. The town's economy came back in the 1960s on lake recreation, and the 2020 Census counted 7,028 people in Kingsland.
On the ground, Shirley Williams looks like the older Lake LBJ shoreline. Lots are mature and treed, and the homes face the water along a winding lakeshore road. Kingsland TX homes here span several eras. Appraisal records show a 768-square-foot cottage built in 1970 a short walk from homes built in 2008 and 2018. A recent listing describes a 3,592-square-foot lakefront home. Exteriors run to stone and wood. Out back you'll find walkways down to covered slips, boat lifts and jet ski racks.
Kingsland is unincorporated, and it runs slower than Marble Falls. The commercial strip is a few blocks along Ranch Road 1431 and the lake road. Days here are set by the water: mornings on the Colorado arm, evenings on the dock, and a short drive into town for supper at the restored Antlers.
Market snapshot
We couldn't find a reliable published figure for Shirley Williams on its own, so these are Kingsland-wide numbers. As of September 2026, Movoto reported a median sale price of $995,000 in Kingsland and an average of 160 days on market, up from 135 days a year earlier. HAR.com's September 2026 profile of active homes for sale in Kingsland TX showed an average asking price of $1,267,660 and an average of $470 per square foot. RealtyTrac's September 2026 figures for the whole 78639 ZIP code were lower: a median list price of $765,000 and a median sold price of about $580,600. That gap shows how much lakefront property pulls the averages up in a market that also includes off-water lots, condos and older cabins.
By October 2026, Movoto showed a Kingsland median list price of $925,000, a median of 157 days on market, and price per square foot down about 5 percent from a year earlier. Put simply, Kingsland TX real estate is moving slowly. Buyers have time to compare shoreline, docks and lot depth, and sellers on the water do best with sharp pricing.

Where is the Shirley Williams subdivision in Kingsland TX?
Shirley Williams is in Kingsland in eastern Llano County, along the Colorado River arm of Lake LBJ. Its main streets include Williams Lakeshore, Ellen Williams Loop and Beckers Point, in the 78639 ZIP code.
Is Shirley Williams on Lake LBJ?
Yes. The subdivision sits on the Colorado River arm of Lake LBJ, and a number of its homes have their own docks, boat lifts and jet ski racks. Not every lot is on the water, so check the shoreline and dock details for each property.
Does Lake LBJ really stay at a constant level?
Lake LBJ is a pass-through lake. LCRA normally holds it between 824.4 and 825 feet above sea level, which is why locals call it constant-level. LCRA itself says none of the Highland Lakes are truly constant-level, and Lake LBJ can rise in a major flood like October 2018, so flood maps and finished-floor elevations are worth checking.
What kind of Kingsland TX homes will I find in Shirley Williams?
You'll find a mix of eras, from small 1970s lake cottages to larger stone-and-wood homes built in the 2000s and later. Lots run from just over a quarter acre to more than an acre.
Are there luxury homes in Kingsland TX neighborhoods like Shirley Williams?
Yes. Some of the newer and larger lakefront homes in Shirley Williams have covered boat docks, lifts and stone exteriors that fit the luxury end of the Lake LBJ market. A luxury real estate agent in Kingsland TX can show you which homes have the best water depth, views and dock setups.
How do I buy a home in Kingsland TX on Lake LBJ?
Start by deciding what you need on the water, such as a deep-water slip, a boat lift or a gentle walk to the shore. Then have an agent pull recent lakefront sales and check each property's dock, flood-zone status and utility service before you make an offer.
Do homes in Shirley Williams have public water and sewer?
At least some Shirley Williams properties are in the Kingsland Municipal Utility District and connect to public water and sewer instead of a septic system. Utility service can vary by lot, so confirm it for each address.
