About MLS Area 1A - Northwest Hills

Northwest Hills delivers big lots and top-rated schools without the Westlake price tag. Most homes sit on half-acre or larger parcels under mature oaks, with builds ranging from 1960s ranches to recent custom construction. Doss Elementary draws buyers from across Austin. You're 15 minutes to downtown, 10 to the Domain, and the 183/2222 interchange puts you on any major corridor fast. Cat Mountain adds hill country views at the higher end. Great Hills rounds out the area with solid inventory in the $800Ks to $1.5M range.

“MLS areas are how agents actually track micro-markets in Austin. Area 1A covers Northwest Hills, Great Hills, Cat Mountain. Understanding these boundaries gives our clients a pricing edge that general ZIP code data can't match.”

- Joe Keenan, Keenan Group at Compass
