The Hillside Condos

What The Hillside Condos does

The Hillside is a residential condominium community located at 8110 RM 2222 in northwest Austin, Texas (78730), developed by Austin-based CSGM after a 17-year planning and 9-year design process completed by award-winning architectural firm JZMK Partners and built by Prestige Builders. The community comprises under 300 freestanding and attached modern condominium homes arranged in six floor plans (The Vista, The Ridge, The Preserve, The Mesa, The Canyon, The Bluff) with unit pricing in the $484,900–$500,000 range. The signature 'Urban Hill Country' design language combines Austin White Limestone, rough-sawn Western Red Cedar, and corrugated metal siding, and was honored with four national architecture awards between 2008 and 2010 and the Home Builders Association of Austin's 'Best Community' award under 300 homes in 2009.

The community sits adjacent to 450 acres of the federally protected Balcones Canyonlands Nature Preserve, providing panoramic views of the Hill Country and downtown Austin that are effectively permanent due to the preserve's regulatory status. Homes feature 2–3 bedrooms, 10–14 foot ceilings, 8-foot glass sliders, premium finishes (Dacor appliances, granite countertops, Grohe faucets, hardwood floors, Nest thermostats, GE security), and either deeded or fenced backyards; shared amenities include a gated entrance, resort-style pool, hot tub, and outdoor kitchen. The HOA ($243–$444/month) covers structural and exterior maintenance, repairs, insurance, and landscaping.

New home sales were completed in December 2019 via urbanspace Realtors; the community now operates exclusively as a resale market, with Doug Harrison (urbanspace Realtors, 512-694-1551) serving as the primary contact for resale transactions, buyer/seller representation, and private tours. Two preferred lenders—Fairway Independent Mortgage (Gerald McChesney) and Benchmark Mortgage (Marsha Wiley)—have closed the majority of loans at the property. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via the hillside2222.com website, a Facebook page, and personal outreach; no external investors, private equity, or venture capital are disclosed.
