First developed in the 1970s, the Great Hills neighborhood in Northwest Austin has grown significantly over the decades. While it still has a true neighborhood feel, it is in a great location near multiple major highways and myriad stores and restaurants, yet 20 minutes from Downtown Austin.
The neighborhood of Great Hills is located near the intersection of loop 360 and Highway 183. Loop 360 constitutes the south border of the neighborhood, while Rain Creek Parkway makes the northern boundary. The Great Hills neighborhood’s east border is also Rain Creek Parkway and Yaupon Drive is the west border, though the borders are becoming less clear over time.
The Great Hills neighborhood resides right next to the Arboretum area, which contains dozens upon dozens of shops and restaurants such as Saks 5th Avenue, Williams Sonoma, Barnes and Noble, Cheesecake Factory, PF Chang’s, Serrano’s, Macaroni Grill, Whole Foods, REI, Crate and Barrel, Costco, Sam’s Club, Target and more. Rather than being enclosed in one structure, it is one of Austin’s first outdoor mall configurations, surrounded by big box retail. Kids enjoy the fountain and playing on the life size granite cattle sculptures grazing in the park. The Arboretum area has several coffee shops, such as 360 Primo Coffee Shop, and great BBQ at Poke-e-Jo’s. There are two movie theaters in the Arboretum area as well.
When it comes to the Great Hills neighborhood, custom homes began to be built in this area in the 1970’s, and custom homes are still being built here today on the occasional vacant lot. They come in many shapes and sizes and home prices ranged from the $300,000’s to the $700,000s.

The Holly neighborhood, located just east of Downtown Austin along the shore of Lady Bird Lake, is in a prime location at the heart of the city. Borders are Chicon to the west, East 7th to the north, Lady Bird Lake to the south and Springdale to the east. It’s less than one square mile of space that’s jammed packed with a lot of what makes Austin a great place to live. During festivals like SXSW, the streets and local clubs come alive with bands and people from around the world. As a result, it’s become one of East Austin’s hottest places to live.
Homes in the area are predominantly smaller single family, built from the 20′s to the 40′s. There’s still a good amount of original little 1000 ft or less houses with a mix of gut remodel/additions and new construction mixed in. The average home in this area is typically a “fixer upper” at $150-$200 per sq ft, but some are going for as high as $300 per sq ft. Luckily the homes aren’t so big, so prices tend to cap around $350,000-$400,000.
Austin ISD schools are Metz elementary, Martin Middle and Eastside Memorial High.
Lady Bird Lake neighbors the community with miles of trails for hiking and biking, canoe and kayaking and the all new SUP (stand up paddle) boarding. The shut down Holly Power Plant that ran for over 4 decades in the neighborhood will now be turned into 22 acres of parkland for more green space and outdoor enjoyment. Neighbors are psyched to see it go.

Quaint bungalows, towering oak trees, and down to earth residents, the historic Hyde Park neighborhood is a true Austin treasure. Established in 1890, Hyde Park was Austin’s first official suburb. Hyde Park was also once home to the first state insane asylum, a little known fact.
Hyde Park stretches from 38th Street to 45th (north to south) and Guadalupe to Duval (east to west). Hyde Park is located north of the UT campus and slightly out of the city center
Many of the bungalows were built in the 1920s and 1930s and have a lot of character. Many homes are designated as historic landmarks. The typical home for sale in Hyde Park right now is a classic craftsman style 3 bed / 2 bath built in the ‘30’s with 1400 sq ft. This is a pretty pricey area but the values continue to hold and climb.
The Hyde Park Neighbors Association keeps a great website where you can get info on all that is going on in the area. They also coordinate historical home tours, sponsor holiday events and more. You can also catch up on back issues of the Pecan Press, the neighborhood paper.
Quack’s Bakery is a legendary Austin spot for coffee, sandwiches, and desserts. Other popular coffee shops in the area include Flightpath and Dolce Vita. Mother’s Cafe is a popular vegetarian eatery, ironically rebuilt several years ago after it caught fire because someone was grilling a steak nearby. Hyde Park Bar and Grill is another long time Austin favorite. Fresh Plus, a small grocer and deli that specializes in health food, is another beloved food destination in the neighborhood. Visit the original grocery on Ave B for a little more history and an award winning sandwich.
Depending where you are in Hyde Park depends on the school. Lee and Reilly are the elementary schools, Lamar and Kealing are the Middle and McCallum is the High School.
