About This Home
***Back on market, Buyer failed to qualify without selling another property.*** Located in one of Central Austin’s best neighborhoods, Crestview, this stunning, light filled home boasts 4 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms with a precious covered patio and lush backyard surrounded by trees. The unparalleled decor offers; high end kitchen w/ oversized island, quartz countertops, beautiful cabinets, Thermador appliances and quality finish outs. The main floor offers open concept living with tall ceilings, spacious living & breakfast area, and a spacious laundry room. Also located on the main floor is the Primary suite and another bedroom with a bathroom that could potentially be used as an office. The second-floor features two bedrooms and one bathroom with a living area. The two-car garage is a rare find in Crestview upgraded with dual pane glass doors and outfitted for an electric car charger. You're blocks from the newly renovated Brentwood Elementary, Brentwood Park, Little Deli, Violet Crown Clubhouse, and the new Fresh Plus! Roughly 10 minutes to Downtown and the Domain.
Crestview was Austin's post-war boom neighborhood - built in the early 1950s when GIs came home and needed houses fast. The result is one of the most cohesive mid-century neighborhoods in the city: 1,000-1,500 sqft ranch homes on 6,500-8,500 sqft lots, broad streets, and a layout that predates the cul-de-sac era.
The 78757 zip and the MetroRail station are what set Crestview apart from neighboring Brentwood and Allandale. The Crestview MetroRail stop runs to downtown in 12 minutes and to Leander in 30. Combined with the Lamar/Burnet bus corridor and the bike lanes on Justin Lane, you can live in Crestview without driving most days. That's rare for North Austin.
Original ranches start around $675K. Updated homes with kitchens, baths, and HVAC modernized run $950K-$1.3M. New builds and major renovations push $1.6M-$2.2M. The teardown rate has accelerated since 2020 but the neighborhood association has been active in protecting the streetscape.
Burnet Road is the food and shopping spine: Little Deli & Pizzeria, Texas French Bread, Phoebe's Diner, Yard Bar (with the dog park), and the long-standing Top Notch Hamburgers all sit within a mile. Lamar runs north to the Domain and south to downtown.
Schools serve Austin ISD: Brentwood Elementary, Lamar Middle, and McCallum High School with its Fine Arts Academy program. The Brentwood Park pool and tennis courts are shared with neighboring Brentwood. Wooldridge Square sits at the southern edge.
Best for buyers who want walkable urbanism, transit access, McCallum zoning, and an original 1950s house they can renovate or rebuild.
