Green space and major employers in a growing Austin suburb

When Nash Phillips/Copus Company unveiled Copperfield as a planned community in 1982, developers described the neighborhood as “reminiscent of the classic story-book village.” Located about 12 miles north of the Texas State Capitol and surrounded by nature, the neighborhood has condos and Victorian-inspired homes at a lower price point than other Austin suburbs. Some of Austin’s biggest employers — including Dell, Apple and Samsung — are mere minutes away. “The location is very good,” says Kyle Odiorne, broker and owner of Owning Texas Real Estate. “It’s close to good shopping, and logistically it’s located in a good part of town for growth.”

Victorian-inspired homes at a fraction of Austin prices

Mature oak trees tower over Copperfield’s gridded streets and cul-de-sacs. Many homes are inspired by Folk Victorian architecture, with patterned wood shingles, asymmetrical roof lines and turned spindles. The area also has split-level and ranch-style homes in a variety of colors. “It still has what I would say are lower-priced homes as compared to the average price in Austin,” Odiorne says, pointing to savings of more than $100,000. Most homes range from $250,000 to $500,000, although bigger homes with extra amenities like a pool can cost more than $700,000. The area also has a smattering of condos, which range from $250,000 to $325,000 for two bedrooms.

Miles of trails close to the Walnut Creek Greenbelt

Starting at Copperfield Park, nature trails abound in nearly every direction. In addition to the playground and picnic tables, locals enjoy walking under tall, shady trees along the Copperfield Nature Trail. The unpaved trail partially encircles the neighborhood and follows Walnut Creek, where hikers can see small waterfalls when the creek is flowing. Hikers who follow the trail can reach the Walnut Creek Greenbelt, a rugged area with miles of paved and unpaved paths that will eventually stretch from Govalle Park up to Balcones District Park thanks to an expansion project.

Mi Casa Market, a large supermarket on the southern edge of the neighborhood, has a taqueria inside. Copperfield is also less than 4 miles from Chinatown Center, a shopping and restaurant complex on North Lamar Boulevard. When it’s time for fun, residents can watch a movie at the AMC Theater or unwind with bowling and a bite to eat at Pinstack. There’s also Holiday and Harvest, a Christmas tree farm and store that hosts year-round holiday events like pick-your-own Christmas trees and a pumpkin patch.
