Heritage Houses for Sale

Heritage, a neighborhood in Austin, is located just over a mile north of the University of Texas campus. Known for its mature live oak and pecan trees, Heritage offers a secluded atmosphere despite its city proximity. The area features a mix of detached single-family homes and condominiums, attracting students, young families, and long-time residents. Architectural styles include Craftsman-style bungalows, farmhouse-style homes, colonial revivals, and new constructions. The median home price is $285,000, with an average cost of $460 per square foot, making it more affordable compared to other parts of Austin, though there is a notable shortage of inventory. The neighborhood is served by the Austin Independent School District, with highly rated schools such as Bryker Woods Elementary, O. Henry Middle, and Austin High School. St. Stephen’s Episcopal School is a top-rated private school nearby. For groceries, residents can visit the Wheatsville Co-op or Target Grocery, both within a mile. Dining options include P. Terry’s Burger Stand #2, Black’s Barbecue, Nori, and Musashino, offering a variety of casual and upscale cuisine. Outdoor recreation is available just outside the neighborhood at Adams-Hemphill Neighborhood Park and Bailey Neighborhood Park, both offering playgrounds, sports courts, and picnic areas. The Shoal Creek Trail, starting at 31st Street, provides a scenic route for walking and biking to Lady Bird Lake. Heritage is bordered by Lamar Boulevard and Guadalupe Street, with multiple Capital Metro bus stops and sidewalks throughout, making it a walkable and commuter-friendly area.
