The moment you turn onto Morrow Street in Crestview, the Tudor-inspired architecture announces itself with uncompromising presence: dark stucco walls, crisp white trim, and black-framed windows beneath classic gables that speak to old-world craftsmanship meeting contemporary precision. This 2,836-square-foot residence, completed in 2026, occupies 0.1996 acres in the heart of one of Austin's most established neighborhoods, just blocks from the tree-lined streets that define Crestview's character and minutes from downtown via North Lamar Boulevard.

The entry foyer sets an immediate tone of intentional design. An arched threshold opens into light-filled living spaces where wide-plank wood flooring and ceiling-high windows frame views of mature trees. The open floor plan flows naturally between the living room, dining area, and kitchen without feeling fragmented. At the kitchen's heart sits a dramatic stone island anchored by custom cabinetry, quartz counters, and ENERGY STAR-qualified stainless steel appliances including a gas range. The layout supports both daily function and formal entertaining, with a breakfast bar and pantry for storage.

Glass sliding doors dissolve the boundary between interior and exterior. The private yard reveals a resort-caliber pool with cascading water features, covered deck, and lounge areas designed for Austin's outdoor lifestyle. The grounds remain private and enclosed, a retreat within the neighborhood.

The second level contains the primary suite, a spa-like sanctuary with a soaking tub, double vanity, and brass fixtures that evoke quiet luxury. A second primary suite downstairs with dedicated ensuite bath provides flexibility for guests or extended family. Three full baths and one half bath serve the remaining four bedrooms, all filled with natural light from strategic window placement. A second living area upstairs accommodates multiple gathering spaces without sacrificing intimacy.

Details throughout reflect deliberate choices: built-in bookcases, walk-in closets, a bar with secondary refrigeration, bidet-equipped bathrooms, smart thermostat controls, and high-speed internet infrastructure. Stackable washer-dryer connections and extensive storage acknowledge the practical demands of full-time residence.

At $644 per square foot, this residence sits in Crestview's premium segment while the neighborhood's proximity to Brentwood Elementary, Lamar Middle, and McCallum High within Austin ISD reinforces its stability as a family destination. The property's first-day-of-listing status reflects the rare convergence of location, scale, and execution that defines properties with staying power.

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.
