Central Austin Real Estate

Everything that's great about Austin can be found in the Central district. This is where people come first for entertainment, shopping, business, and a comfortable place to call home amid the big city. Other downtowns may have more concrete, crowds, and high-rises, but Central Austin has livability, and more fun places you can take the time to enjoy. Many of Austin's annual festivals are based in the central district, including the huge South By Southwest Music Festival, which helped the city become known as the "Live Music Capital of the World." Central Austin is also a hotbed of economic activity and high-tech innovation, with major employers such as 3M, Motorolla, Dell, and IBM operating here.

Urban excitement blends nicely with old fashioned charm in the Central district, where much of Austin's heritage has been preseved. Central Austin is home to many beautiful historic sites, such as West Austin Park, and old neighborhoods such as Allandale, Pemberton Heights, and Brykerwoods. These areas feature some of Austin's finest character homes, built mainly between the 1920s and 1960s. Many older Central Austin homes are surrounded by large, carefully manicured properties dotted with mature oak and cottonwood trees, affording luxurious shade and privacy in Austin's busiest district. The University of Texas at Austin provides an additional backdrop of classic architecture and landscaping for many homes between Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd, and E Dean Keaton St.
The Central Austin real estate area also has a wide variety of newer homes, condos, and rental properties in all price ranges. The district is bounded by I-35 on the east, Town Lake on the South, Mopac Expressway on the West, and Anderson Lane on the North.
