1904 Morrow St, Austin, TX 78757

Set in the heart of Crestview, this home has the kind of presence that feels right at home in one of Central Austin’s most beloved neighborhoods. The classic exterior has a familiar, welcoming feel, and inside, the home opens up to bright, updated spaces that feel easy, comfortable, and lived-in in the best way. Wide plank floors add warmth, plantation shutters bring character, and the refreshed kitchen with white cabinetry, granite counters, subway tile, and stainless appliances keeps the look clean and timeless. The layout offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with a comfortable flow that works well for both everyday living and having people over. The spacious living room is especially flexible, with enough room to function as one large gathering space or closed off to create 2 separate living areas if that better fits your needs. The primary suite is set apart from the other bedrooms for a little extra privacy and includes its own ensuite bath and walk-in closet. Out back, the yard gives you plenty of room to spread out and enjoy it from day one. Multiple patio areas create space for lounging, grilling, or casual get-togethers, while the storage shed adds practicality and the playground is already in place and ready for fun. It is the kind of backyard that feels usable, versatile, and easy to make your own. One of the highlights of this property is its prime location with standout walkability. Just steps from local favorites like Violet Crown Wine Bar & Coffee Shop, the iconic Little Deli & Pizzeria, and the infamous Top Notch Burgers, you’re right in the middle of Crestview’s best-known spots. You will feel right at home in this welcoming community, where neighbors become friends and local hangouts start to feel like part of your everyday routine. Brentwood Elem. is nearby, and with Crestview’s own light rail station close by, getting to UT and downtown Austin is easy. It is a great fit for anyone looking for a warm, connected neighborhood with real Austin character.

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.
