Grandview Hills - Austin, TX Area Guide

A lakeside location in the hills

Family-Friendly Lake Wooded Commutes

Living up to its name, Grandview Hills offers spectacular views of the surrounding hills and Lake Travis. Filled with million-dollar mansions and wide-open spaces, rentals here tend to be slightly higher priced than those in other Austin neighborhoods, but the proximity to the lake makes the location unbeatable. Commuters can reach Downtown Austin, located 15 miles to the southeast, in about half an hour.

The northern part of Grandview Hills is undeveloped and forested. Homes and apartments are located to the south and southeast, mostly along 620 and close to Concordia University Texas. This is also where you’ll find a shopping area, the Trails at 620. This plaza offers restaurants, shops, and the Moviehouse & Eatery. The highly-rated Grandview Hills Elementary School is located along Vista Parke Drive.
