Austin's Best-Kept Small Town
Rollingwood is its own little city, with about 2,000 residents, its own city government and its own police department, tucked between Zilker Park and Bee Caves Road. It feels like a quiet small town, yet downtown Austin is only about 5 to 10 minutes away.
Think big trees, bigger lots, friendly neighbors and Eanes ISD schools. People move here and tend to stay a long time. Once you see it, you'll understand why it's on a roll.
Rollingwood sits in 78746, just west of MoPac and Zilker Park, with Bee Caves Road along its edge.
Rollingwood is one of the area's most exclusive markets. The median sale price over the past 12 months was about $3.75M, across roughly 17 closed sales, at around $899 per square foot. With so few homes trading each year, opportunities are limited.
Lots are typically a quarter acre or larger with mature tree canopy. Because Rollingwood has its own zoning and building rules, I'll help you understand what's possible before you buy.
Market figures: trailing 12 months of MLS closed sales as of October 2026. Verify current numbers before publishing.
Rollingwood's location is hard to beat. Zilker Park, Barton Springs Pool and the Zilker Botanical Garden are right next door, and the Barton Creek Greenbelt is close by. In town, Rollingwood Park has a walking loop, playground and community garden, and the city hosts neighborhood events that bring everyone together.
For food, Salt Traders on MoPac is close by, the South Lamar corridor offers favorites like Uchi and Matt's El Rancho, and The Grove Wine Bar and Sway are just up Bee Caves Road. You get the quiet of a small town with the best of Austin a few minutes away.
Most of Rollingwood is in Eanes ISD, one of the most sought-after districts in Texas. Homes are typically zoned to Eanes or Cedar Creek Elementary, Hill Country Middle School and Westlake High School. A smaller section of Rollingwood feeds Austin ISD schools, including Barton Hills Elementary, O. Henry Middle and Austin High. Always confirm school assignments by exact address.
If you want a walkable bar and restaurant scene inside your neighborhood, you'll be driving a few minutes for it. Most Rollingwood residents think that's a fair trade.
With so few homes changing hands each year, buying in Rollingwood takes patience and a good network. I'll keep an eye out for opportunities, including off-market ones, and help you move quickly when the right home comes along.
