Plan A/B/C pricing, video and photos, ads that run until it sells, and an update on your home every Monday.
Selling Your Home in Canyon Creek: what's different here
Selling in Canyon Creek means competing for the buyers who already want this part of Austin. Canyon Creek buyers are comparing newer, larger homes in a preserve setting, so greenbelt lots, updates and the HOA's amenities have to come through in the marketing.
That's why I start with where your home stands against the others a buyer will see, not with a number pulled from a website.
Why Canyon Creek sellers work with me
I've lived in Northwest Austin since 1976, and much of my recent business has been along the Parmer and 183 corridors as buyers follow the jobs north. When I price a home in Canyon Creek, I'm weighing what buyers here actually pay for. Canyon Creek splits between Round Rock ISD (Canyon Creek Elementary, Grisham, Westwood) and Leander ISD (Grandview Hills, Four Points, Vandegrift), so every address gets checked.

Canyon Creek
What selling your home looks like in Canyon Creek
A 1990s and 2000s master-planned community in 78726, with a deep amenity set, a nature trail and two school districts.
- The homes
- A master-planned community of about 2,440 homes in 78726, built mostly from the mid-1990s into the 2000s: the Spicewood/Balcones kind of home, but newer and larger. Even so, many original roofs, AC systems and water heaters are now near the end of their service life. One HOA with tighter architectural rules than the older neighborhoods and a deep amenity set: pools, tennis and pickleball, basketball, a soccer field, playgrounds and trails.
- Schools people ask about
- Split between two districts. Part of Canyon Creek is Round Rock ISD: Canyon Creek Elementary, Grisham Middle School and Westwood High School. Part is Leander ISD: Grandview Hills Elementary, Four Points Middle School and Vandegrift High School. Both are strong pathways, but Leander ISD families should weigh the daily drive down 620 toward the 2222 area. Confirm by address.
- Getting around
- Roughly bounded by 2222, 620, Anderson Mill Road and a tributary of Bull Creek.
- Nearby
- The Canyon Creek nature trail runs through the neighborhood, with Balcones Canyonlands Preserve land and the St. Edward's Park greenbelt loosely behind it.
- The trade-off
- Newer, larger homes in a scenic setting, but farther out and more enclosed, with a longer drive to central Austin. Homes backing to greenbelt carry a premium but bring slope, drainage and tree questions.
