If you’re considering making Cedar Park home, Cedar Park Town Center should be at the top of your list. This master-planned community blends small-town charm with urban convenience, offering residents a lively yet relaxed lifestyle just north of Austin.

A Neighborhood With History & Heart
Development in Cedar Park Town Center began in the early 2000s. The neighborhood was developed between approximately 2004 and 2014, with homes constructed as part of a planned residential community that prioritized walkability, curb appeal, and a cohesive streetscape. Most of the homes were built by D.R. Horton, one of the nation’s largest and most trusted homebuilders.
This purposeful build timeframe gave Cedar Park Town Center a consistent architectural style and high-quality finishes that still stand up well today.
Styles, Sizes & Living Options
Cedar Park Town Center features a lovely mix of single-family homes, many in the Craftsman-inspired style that contributes to the community’s inviting streetscape. A few townhome-style properties can also be found in or near the neighborhood, perfect for buyers seeking lower-maintenance living without sacrificing quality.
Homes generally range from about 1,000 to 2,400+ square feet, with most built for comfortable family living. Many feature rear-entry garages accessed via alleyways, which keeps the front of the homes aesthetically pleasing and encourages neighborly interaction on tree-lined streets. Lot sizes tend toward smaller, low-maintenance yards, ideal for those who want outdoor space without the upkeep that comes with larger Texas lots.
Walkability, Commute & Connectivity
One of the biggest draws of Cedar Park Town Center is its walkable feel and proximity to everyday conveniences. The neighborhood was designed with sidewalks and trails that make strolling or biking easy, whether you’re heading to the community pool, a nearby park, or just out for a neighborhood walk.
Right outside your front door is The Parke shopping area, featuring favorites like Whole Foods, Costco, Target, and a diverse selection of restaurants and retailers, all within walking or short biking distance for most residents.
The neighborhood’s central location is just off Whitestone Blvd (FM 1431) and near 183A Toll, making commuting to Austin or other parts of the metro area a breeze.
Events, Recreation & Community Life
Life in Cedar Park Town Center goes beyond your front yard. The Homeowners’ Association fosters community with seasonal events like holiday decoration contests, community garage sales, and neighborhood get-togethers. These traditions help foster that small-town feel that so many residents love.
Adjacent to the neighborhood is the Cedar Park Recreation Center, featuring fitness facilities, multipurpose rooms, and gym space, a hub for staying active and social. The Cedar Park Sculpture Garden and walking trails around local parks add even more ways to get outside and enjoy your community.
