About University Hills
University Hills is an established neighborhood in East Austin, located east of I-35 and north of US-290, within easy reach of both the University of Texas campus and the Mueller redevelopment district. The neighborhood was developed primarily in the 1950s and 1960s as one of Austin's early postwar suburban communities, and its tree-lined streets and mid-century homes reflect that era's residential character.
Homes in University Hills typically range from $300,000 to $600,000, featuring a mix of ranch-style homes, bungalows, and updated mid-century residences on generous lots. Many properties have been renovated in recent years as East Austin's popularity has surged, blending original charm with modern kitchens, open floor plans, and energy-efficient upgrades. Lot sizes are generally larger than newer Austin subdivisions, offering mature shade trees and ample yard space.
University Hills is served by the Austin Independent School District (Austin ISD). Students typically attend Andrews Elementary, Pearce Middle School, and LBJ Early College High School. LBJ offers an early college program in partnership with Austin Community College, allowing students to earn college credit during high school.
The neighborhood's central East Austin location provides downtown Austin in approximately 10-15 minutes via I-35 or Airport Boulevard. The Mueller mixed-use development is adjacent, offering H-E-B grocery, restaurants, parks, and retail within minutes. The University of Texas campus is approximately 10 minutes west, and Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is 15-20 minutes south via US-183.
Living in University Hills
University Hills offers mid-century East Austin homes at price points well below central Austin's median, with the kind of lot sizes and mature tree cover that newer developments cannot replicate. The $300K-$600K range attracts a mix of first-time buyers, investors, and families drawn to the neighborhood's proximity to Mueller, UT Austin, and downtown.
The Mueller development next door has transformed the area's amenities — H-E-B, Alamo Drafthouse, restaurants, parks, and the Thinkery children's museum are all within a few minutes. Downtown is 10-15 minutes via I-35, and the East Austin food and entertainment corridor along Manor Road and East 7th Street is immediately accessible. The neighborhood's ongoing renovation trend means buyers can find both move-in-ready updated homes and value-add opportunities.
