The Austin metro area continues to rank as one of the top places to live in the country, thanks to its strong job market, rich culture, and unbeatable Hill Country scenery. But with Austin’s rapid growth, many families are looking slightly outside the city for new homes that offer more space, family-friendly communities, and a little extra breathing room.

That’s where the North Austin corridor, which includes Leander, Liberty Hill, and Georgetown, comes in. These fast-growing communities provide the perfect blend of small-town warmth and big-city convenience. Homebuyers get the best of both worlds: easy access to Austin’s opportunities and entertainment, plus welcoming neighborhoods where kids can ride bikes, neighbors know each other’s names, and families thrive.

At Scott Felder Homes, we’re proud to build in these remarkable cities. With award-winning designs and communities planned around real life, our homes are crafted for families who want to live well in Central Texas. Let’s take a closer look at what makes Leander, Liberty Hill, and Georgetown stand out.

Leander: A City on the Rise

Leander has rapidly grown from a quiet suburb into one of the most dynamic cities in the Austin area. Known for its excellent schools, family-focused atmosphere, and expanding amenities, Leander consistently ranks among the best places to buy a home near Austin.

One of its most significant advantages is connectivity. With the Leander MetroRail station, residents can commute to downtown Austin without the stress of traffic. The city is also investing heavily in its future with projects like Northline, a 115-acre mixed-use district that will feature restaurants, shops, offices, and green spaces; essentially creating a new “downtown” for Leander. 

Outdoor recreation is another highlight. Residents are minutes from Lake Travis, offering boating, fishing, and water sports, as well as numerous local parks with trails for hiking and biking. Families appreciate the balance of suburban convenience and natural beauty.

Scott Felder Homes builds thoughtfully designed neighborhoods in Leander that reflect the city’s spirit of growth. Our floor plans offer open-concept living, energy-efficient features, and customizable options to meet every family’s needs. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or moving up to your dream home, Leander offers opportunities to grow with the community.

Liberty Hill: Small-Town Spirit with Hill Country Views

A little further north, Liberty Hill captures the essence of small-town Texas while keeping residents close to Austin’s opportunities. Known for its welcoming atmosphere and strong school district, Liberty Hill is a place where families put down roots and neighbors become friends.

The Liberty Hill Independent School District consistently receives high marks for academic performance, athletics, and extracurricular programs. This makes it especially attractive to families who want an excellent education close to home.

Community pride is everywhere in Liberty Hill. From Friday night football games to local festivals and art shows, residents gather throughout the year to celebrate their town. The scenery is another draw with wide-open spaces, rolling hills, and star-filled skies giving the community its Hill Country character.

Scott Felder Homes offers homes here that fit seamlessly into the landscape, featuring larger homesites, modern amenities, and layouts designed for comfort and connection. Outdoor living is a priority in Liberty Hill, and our homes make it easy to enjoy evenings on the patio, weekend barbecues, and quality time with loved ones.

Georgetown: History and Modern Living in One

Georgetown is often described as where history meets progress. Its historic downtown square has been named one of the most beautiful in Texas, with preserved architecture, boutique shopping, farm-to-table dining, and live music. Events like the Red Poppy Festival and holiday celebrations bring families together year-round.

But Georgetown isn’t just about history; it’s also one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States. With Southwestern University, a vibrant business environment, and new residential and commercial development, Georgetown offers a thriving local economy alongside its small-town charm.

Nature lovers also find plenty to explore here. The San Gabriel River Trail provides miles of scenic paths for walking and biking, while Lake Georgetown is perfect for camping, swimming, and kayaking.

Scott Felder Homes builds communities in Georgetown that give homeowners easy access to both the historic heart of the city and its modern conveniences. Our homes are carefully designed with open layouts, stylish finishes, and the energy efficiency today’s buyers want, making them a perfect fit for this dynamic area.
