Given the popularity of Austin and its swiftly advancing business centers, it’s no wonder that fabulous new home communities are cropping up in nearly every corner of the city. City professionals, in particular, are searching for upscale, gated communities in Austin and, like the real estate itself, these communities have been designed to impress.

Here are just a few of Austin’s top gated communities:

Avery Ranch

First of all, Avery Ranch has a very desirable location, right between Cedar Park and Round Rock and, second of all, it winds around a stunning golf course. Is there really anything better in Austin?

If you want to know what Avery Ranch has, a better question would be: What doesn’t it have? Tennis courts, five community centers, swimming pools and, of course, the impressive, 18-hole golf course (one of the best in Austin) is just a sample of the wonderful community offerings of Avery Ranch.

The homes of Austin’s Avery Ranch consist of both single-family homes and town homes, most of which were built in 2000 or after. Many of the homes in Avery Ranch also boast fantastic views of the golf course and the beautiful, 60-acre Lake Avery.

Many of Austin’s top professionals seek out Avery Ranch, as this community is near many of the city’s main arteries, including Interstates 183, 620 and 35, thereby allowing for easy travel in and out of the city.

Villas at Canyon Creek

Austin’s Canyon Creek community is a popular one, with many, smaller enclaves comprising it. The Villas at Canyon Creek is a serene, gated Austin community that features luxury properties and a fantastic location.

Many buyers flock to Canyon Creek because of its secluded feeling and its small size. Located just 19 miles northwest of Downtown Austin, the Villas at Canyon Creek also afford city professionals with a seamless drive to and from the city.
