Condos for Sale in Garfield, TX

Garfield, Texas, is a rapidly growing community located less than 20 miles southeast of Austin. This growth is driven by its proximity to the state capital, the Circuit of the Americas racetrack, and the Tesla plant. The area, once relatively undeveloped, has blossomed since the racetrack's construction in 2012 and the subsequent establishment of the Tesla plant. Garfield attracts those seeking the natural surroundings and space of a rural area while remaining close to Austin. The town features farmhouse-style homes on large plots, with real estate prices significantly lower than in Austin, though property values are rising. Garfield is part of the Del Valle Independent School District, which offers access to technology through its 1:1 Chromebook Program and various extracurricular activities. Alternatively, parents can choose St. Stephen’s Episcopal School, a highly rated private school in the Austin area. Residents rely on cars for transportation, as there is no rapid transit and essential amenities are not within walking distance. JD’s Supermarket and Walmart in east Austin are popular for groceries and household necessities. Dining options include El Michoacano Mexican Restaurant, located about 10 minutes away. For outdoor activities, Southeast Metropolitan Park and Barkley Meadows Park offer playgrounds, picnic shelters, hiking trails, and fishing opportunities along the Colorado River.
