These real estate search maps are always-up-to date showing homes for sale surrounding each MetroRail station. As Austin continues to grow, our first commuter rail will provide convenient and environmentally conscious transportation from downtown to a relatively distant suburban community, Leander.
Please feel free to bookmark these pages so that you can monitor all homes for sale and lease in these select Austin and suburban neighborhoods.
This rail system begins in downtown Austin near the Convention Center, very close to Austin's Lady Bird Lake. On Lady Bird Lake, there are many opportunities for excercise such as rowing in the lake, and the very long hike and bike trails. There are many condos in this area with quick access to Lady Bird' amenities as well as Austin's Sixth Street Entertainment District which is also a protected historical district. Many of Austin's most sophisticated employers are downtown. Wonderful dining is also available in downtown Austin.
The next stop is in the historic, and rapidly developing East Austin Neighborhood at the Plaza Saltillo. Many affordable condos and single family homes are in this area, providing easy access to the North shore of Lady Bird Lake and downtown Austin. Unique dining and cultural opportunities abound.
Austin's first communter rail then takes you to the MLK, Jr MetroRail Station. Here you will find a rich, historic neighborhood providing real estate at the most affordable in Central Austin, as well as quick access to traffic arteries allowing a driver to easily access Austin.
The Highand Mall Metro Station is located in central North Austin, next to one of Austin's best shopping malls as well as very afforable central city homes and duplexes. This area is rapidly improving due to its central Austin location.
Likewise, the next stop on Austin's commuter rail, the Crestview Station, provides access to more affordable homes for sale largely built in the 1950's and 1960's as well as some newer infill homes and condos.
As the MetroRail train goes north from the Crestview Station, it reaches the Kramer Lane and Howard Lane MetroRail stations. These neighborhoods are just beyond what might be considered central Austin, but are located very near major employers. many of these homes were built in the 1970's. These neighborhoods provide very affordable homes.
Then, the MetroRail commuter train turns West to the Lakeline Mall Station near Cedar Park, just after crossing three major highways that provide easy access to many points North, East, West and South, including Leander, Round Rock and Georgetown. A large node of retail stores and employment is centered here.
The final stop for Austin's first commuter rail, heading Northwest, is the Leander Station. Here there are a number of newer homes covering a wide range of size and amenities. Any of these homes offer excellent value for the price.
Perhaps by design, most of the areas served by Austin's MetroRail service are areas that will gain value due to this upgrade to each area's mobility, gaining more value as the costs of fuels inevitably rise and urban congestion increases. These areas all present some of Austin's best real estate investment values both in the near and long terms.
