North Burnet offers living near employers, shopping and green space

North Burnet is a dense, mixed-use slice of northern Austin, where retail and entertainment options abound by the MoPac Expressway. The area connects directly to The Domain, a large open-air shopping and dining complex nicknamed Austin's second downtown. Modern condos and apartments here sit alongside corporate campuses and Q2 Stadium, home to Major League Soccer’s Austin FC. The sprawling Walnut Creek Metropolitan Park is just outside the neighborhood, giving locals an outdoor escape with extensive trails. The nearby highway is a direct route to the center of the city, which is about 10 miles away.

Luxury brands, local dining and everyday conveniences nearby

The Domain anchors this area’s commercial scene, a roughly 300-acre development with about 100 retailers, including Cartier, Dior, Gucci and Louis Vuitton. The neighboring Domain Northside adds more options, such as Apple, Chanel, J. Crew, Nike and The North Face. "I think what makes The Domain so popular is that North Austin was a major relocation spot during the pandemic, so it reminds a lot of California transplants of the shopping centers in LA or San Diego," says local resident Madison Dodd, who lives in the nearby suburb of Cedar Park. The dining choices at The Domain and Domain Northside are just as diverse as the stores, with options including:

  • North Italia, which serves traditional Italian fare, from chicken parmesan to trottole chicken pesto
  • Blue Sushi Sake Grill, where the happy hour lasts over seven hours Monday through Saturday and all day on Sunday
  • Sweet Paris Crêperie & Cafe, where the sweets include not just crepes but also milkshakes and lattes
  • Velvet Taco, a fast-casual spot for tacos and taco bowls, with red velvet cake available for dessert
  • Ema, which specializes in small-plate Mediterranean dishes
If it’s more of a home-cooked meal kind of night, you can grab groceries at Domain Northside’s Whole Foods. And you might head back over there in the morning if you work at one of the companies with office space at The Domain, a list that includes IBM and Amazon. "It's just a super convenient area where you can live close to work,” says local Realtor Miriam Moorman, who’s with Realty Texas and has over 20 years of industry experience. “You can have everything you possibly want to do within easy, convenient distance."

You can shop at The Domain, which is just around the corner.

Condos and apartments make up most housing options here

North Burnet's housing market consists almost entirely of condominiums and apartments. The Stoneleigh Condominium community is a prominent presence in the area, offering units from one-bedroom layouts to more spacious configurations with access to shared amenities like a pool, fitness center and clubhouse. Stainless steel appliances and hardwood floors are common. Units sell for prices from the lower $100,000s to the lower $200,000s, with HOA fees of $385 per month. Including the neighborhood’s multiple apartment complexes, well over 90% of North Burnet residents are renters.

Entertainment options extend beyond shopping and dining

A day on the town in the North Burnet area doesn’t necessarily have to mean shopping or dining. You can spend some free time visiting the close-by IPIC movie theater and Topgolf locations. Or you can explore the Museum of Illusions Austin, whose exhibits are full of optical illusions. Austin FC’s Q2 Stadium comes to life with games in the neighborhood from spring through fall. The team’s games are regularly sold out, with capacity crowds of over 20,000.

There are also smaller spots to choose from in the North Burnet area, such as:

  • Gracywoods Neighborhood Park, where there’s another paved trail, a playground and multiple picnic tables
  • Domain Central Park, which is by its namesake shopping center and features a dog park
  • North Star Greenbelt, where you’ll find a paved path that winds through green lawns and past flowering trees
