Residents enjoy Gracywood's suburban feel and access to city amenities
Gracywoods is a calm North Austin neighborhood, near shopping hubs and tech employers. Built in the second half of the 20th century, the community feels suburban, with its ranch-style homes and wooded cul-de-sacs. Walnut Creek Metropolitan Park is next to the neighborhood and helps contribute to its calm atmosphere. But Interstate 35 and the MoPac Expressway are each still nearby for the 12-mile drive to downtown Austin, and a popular mixed-use development known as the Domain is close as well. Residents love Gracywoods’ combination of suburban charm and convenience to the city.
Those looking for renovated homes can search in the Gracywoods neighborhood of Austin, Texas.

Prices for condos range between the upper $100,000s and the low $300,000s. Ranch-style and bi-level homes often sell between the low $300,000s and the upper $400,000s.

Gracywoods is more expensive than some nearby neighborhoods, including North Austin. But prices are lower than in areas closer to downtown. “It’s higher price-per-square-foot than surrounding areas, definitely,” says Lalo Herrera, founder and Realtor of the H Squared Real Estate Team of Keller Williams and a native Austinite. “But as far as overall bang for your buck when you’re comparing it to the other neighborhoods you’re not far from, definitely a great value.”

Austin's secondary downtown, the Domain, is just a couple miles away
While Gracywoods offers a suburban feel, the neighborhood is close to some of Austin’s biggest shopping and dining destinations. The Domain, an upscale mixed-use development, is just 2 miles away and features retail shops like Urban Outfitters and American Eagle. The area also hosts a weekly farmers market, held each Sunday. Q2 Stadium, the home of the Austin FC soccer team, is located just across the street from the Domain. “The secondary downtown, which is the Domain, is definitely a big draw,” Herrera says. “There are complete office buildings, there are apartments. Dining, shopping, movies. Anything you can think of that would be in any downtown central area, you’re likely going to find at the Domain.”
For dining, people often head the other direction to Lamar Boulevard, a corridor with plenty of popular options:
• Usta Kababgy, featuring a fusion of halal and Mexican cuisine • Maudie’s Tex-Mex, known for fajitas and margaritas • Tropicana Cuban Restaurant, serving favorites straight from Havana
Several international markets are also located on Lamar, and there are three H-E-Bs within 2 miles of the neighborhood.

If you want a quick walk or jog close to home, the North Star Greenbelt is about a mile and a half through the center of the neighborhood. “Austin’s a pretty outdoorsy city, so people are definitely walking their dogs and using the trails they have there,” Herrera says.
