About Downtown Homes For Sale

Over the last two decades downtown Austin has transformed itself from a small sleepy town to an energetic, creative and lively city with government, business, restaurants, multiple entertainment districts and retail shops that bring residents to downtown.  Unlike many big cities, downtown Austin is where Austinites go to have fun and relax.  The addition of 1.2 million square feet of brand new office, retail, and residential space has made downtown Austin economically viable and socially attractive to singles, young professionals and young families who want to be where the action is. Downtown Austin is one of the most popular residential markets in Texas. You will find over 3,200 unique residential units in downtown.  Home and condo prices in downtown Austin start at $300,000, but most homes sell for between $500,000 and $1,000,000.

Development plans for rapidly expanding Downtown Austin continue to serge. One the greatest assets of downtown Austin is the recreation and beauty offered by Lady Bird Lake. The lake runs through downtown Austin and includes hike and bike trails around the lake shoreline as well as canoeing, rowing, paddle boarding, swimming and fishing.
