Location and growth
Nolina sits just off Ronald Reagan with a Georgetown address, very close to the edge of town. Ronald Reagan is the extension of Parmer Lane, and it runs straight down to the Domain and Apple's campus. 183 takes you into Cedar Park.
The area is changing fast. As of my March 2025 tour, Ronald Reagan was being widened into a four-lane boulevard just south of here, and a brand-new HEB was about to open just north, in a complex with restaurants, gyms and professional offices.
Why consider Nolina over Santa Rita Ranch
A lot of buyers looking out here are also looking at Santa Rita Ranch. On my March 2025 tour, homes from builders like Perry and Westin in Nolina were generally cheaper than their counterparts in Santa Rita Ranch.
The HOA is lower too. Nolina's was $55 a month as of March 2025. For comparison, Santa Rita Ranch's base HOA is $95 a month as of September 2026. Part of why Nolina's fee is low is that it has one amenity center instead of several.
Tax rates change and vary by section, so we'll compare the current rates for any two homes you're deciding between.
The amenity center
If you're looking for amenities, you're not shorted out here just because this isn't Santa Rita Ranch. Especially for $55 a month, the amenity center is solid:
- A real fitness center, not a throwaway apartment gym
- Pools
- Hosting areas
- A really nice coffee bar
Homes, builders and lots
As of March 2025, prices started in the mid-$300s, and some of the larger Perry and Westin homes could touch $700,000 at the very top.
The four builders are Perry, Westin, Chesmar and Taylor Morrison, each with different floor plans and levels of customization. I had a client build a Perry home here, and Perry was super open to custom options (in their case, a standalone tub) at very reasonable prices. You'll find wider lot options, 3-car garages, greenbelts, hills and some views.
The master plan will eventually be over 500 acres, and newer phases were being prepped when I filmed. Most of the really good lots, even some with views, are in the earlier phases. It gets flatter as you move back toward the newer parts of the neighborhood.
As a bonus, there were some concrete houses with metal frames going up nearby. I didn't know who was building them at the time.
Taxes, HOA and the honest downside
As of March 2025 the tax rate was 2.55%, which is pretty competitive, and the HOA was $55 a month.
The biggest con for anyone who works in Austin proper is the commute. It can be a little long. The Ronald Reagan widening should totally transform that drive, but go in with realistic expectations.
Who Nolina fits
Nolina fits buyers who want new construction from well-known builders, care about carrying costs as much as purchase price, and still want a good amenity center. It's less ideal if you have a daily commute into central Austin.
