Square Footage is an estimate only; actual construction may vary.

New construction in central Austin is limited, which is what makes 1806 Princeton Ave stand out in Crestview. Priced at $1.60M, or $510 per square foot, this 3,139 square foot single family residence gives buyers a 2026 build in Austin ISD, with Brentwood, Lamar, and McCallum in the school path.

The layout is straightforward and useful: four bedrooms, three full baths, one half bath, and a two-story plan built for daily function rather than wasted square footage. A two-car detached garage keeps the site organized, and the 0.1855 acre lot is large enough to matter in this part of the city, especially when paired with planned outdoor utility infrastructure. The backyard is already set up with plumbing in place for a future pool and a future outdoor kitchen, which lowers the friction for a buyer who intends to finish the exterior for entertaining or long-term personal use. Inside, upgraded casement windows are designed to bring in more natural light, and the home includes one fireplace plus a separate wood-burning fireplace for year-round outdoor living.

This is also a practical buy for someone who values newer construction standards. The home is being delivered with energy-efficient construction and a David Weekley warranty, and the builder states its EnergySaver homes in Austin average a HERS Index of 60. That matters because carrying costs are shaped by more than purchase price alone. On a new build, buyers are also measuring likely efficiency, maintenance exposure, and how much capital they will need to deploy after closing. Here, the major systems, finishes, and structure are all aligned with a 2026 completion timeline rather than a retrofit story.

Location is the other part of the equation. Crestview continues to hold attention because it offers established neighborhood character with direct access to Burnet Road, Anderson Lane, parks, dining, shopping, major employers, and commuter routes. That combination is hard to replicate. For buyers who want central Austin placement, Austin ISD schools, and a house that is set up for current living instead of future catch-up work, this property is positioned as a long-hold asset with room to improve the outdoor experience over time.

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.
