Longhorn Village celebrated the grand opening of its long-awaited expansion. The multimillion-dollar project, which broke ground in January 2023, adds 48 beautifully appointed hybrid homes designed to meet the needs of modern, self-reliant seniors. 

The new residences feature modern kitchens, spacious floor plans and luxurious details like balconies or patios, walk-in closets, built-in pantries and dual-sink bathrooms. The four-story expansion also includes an underground parking facility, a shared landscaped courtyard for outdoor entertainment and a new club room for residents to gather and socialize. 

Austinites aged 65 and older are the fastest-growing group in the city, according to the City of Austin Planning Department. With only six homes per floor, the expansion offers a hybrid of villa-style luxury and the convenience of apartment living where residents can enjoy a maintenance-free lifestyle, indulge in amenities and connect with a vibrant community of neighbors and friends. 

Developed by Greenbrier Development and designed by Perkins Eastman, with construction by White Construction, the 136,000-square-foot space blends style and functionality with the charm of Steiner Ranch's natural beauty.
