The Govalle real estate market is an exciting prospect for those looking to be part of one of Austin's most promising up-and-coming neighborhoods. Situated between Webberville Road and Airport Boulevard, just north of the Colorado River and Roy G. Guerrero Colorado River Metro Park, this increasingly hip and sought-after East Austin neighborhood offers an appealing array of real estate opportunities.
The community is on more people's radar as an exceptional place to live, socialize, and explore. Govalle was previously rural and more recently a lower-income neighborhood that's rapidly changing. However, its past has contributed to its richness in culture, architecture, art, and food. Today it is a vibrant mosaic of all its historic and modern influences, making it one of the most unique, quintessentially Austin, and coveted spots for young professionals to enjoy the city.
Govalle real estate itself is a byproduct of the neighborhood's constantly evolving landscape and its incredible heritage. Homes can start as low as the $200,000s and span into the $1,000,000+ range. The properties are incredibly diverse; there are some older cottages, bungalows, and ranchers that represent a highly recognizable wave of residential real estate development in Austin in the 1950s, 1960s, and even the 1970s. These homes are charming and cozy, and although they are on the smaller side, they often have expansive lawns and lush canopies of oak trees providing beautiful shade.

In addition to remodeled and reinvigorated 20th century homes, there are sparkling new condos, townhouses, and row homes.
These spaces are sleek and modern, with light-soaked open-concept floor plans, ultra-polished finishes, and swanky community amenities such as dog parks, courtyards, and outdoor kitchens. Single-family new construction homes can feature everything from diamond polish concrete floors or warm hardwood, granite and quartz kitchen countertops, and European or Japanese appliances, to vaulted ceilings, wet bars, and sweeping al fresco living and dining spaces.
The lifestyle in Govalle is exciting, with plenty of stylish shops, restaurants, and bars that add to the fresh, upbeat atmosphere in the neighborhood. Govalle Neighborhood Park is a beautiful 26-acre city park that includes sports fields, a gorgeous swimming pool, BBQ spots, and picnic tables, as well as a playground for kids.
