Longhorn Village Celebrates the Opening of 136,000-square-foot Expansion May 28

Life Plan Community adds 48 luxury hybrid homes to meet the needs of today's active, independent seniors

AUSTIN, Texas, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Longhorn Village celebrates a new era of retirement living in the Hill Country May 28 with 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 today's 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 top-notch amenities and connect with a vibrant community of neighbors and friends.

"This expansion allows us to continue delivering the impeccable service and experiences the growing population deserve and building upon a higher caliber of life enrichment while evolving to address the needs of a new generation of retirees," said Nichole Ulrich, Executive Director of Longhorn Village. Ulrich also noted that residences are nearly all reserved, in addition to a growing waitlist.

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.

"Many of our residents plan for the future with an eye toward maintaining independence while having access to a full continuum of care," said Deidre Kinsey, Chief Executive Officer of Brazos Presbyterian Homes Holding, Inc. Kinsey previously served as CEO and Executive Director of Longhorn Village for 12 years. "This peace of mind allows them to focus on building friendships, exploring new interests and experiencing a unique brand of retirement living that ultimately enhances and enriches their lifestyles."

Longhorn Village, which welcomed its first residents in 2009, is a not-for-profit Life Plan Community offering independent living, assisted living, memory care, skilled nursing and rehabilitation. The community, located in the Steiner Ranch neighborhood, boasts stunning Hill Country views, enriching educational opportunities, endless activities and attractions, and proximity to the University of Texas from which many residents enjoy the benefits of the official Texas Exes membership, making it a draw for older adults who value location and lifestyle.

Longhorn Village is located at 12501 Longhorn Pkwy. in Austin. For more information, call 512.266.5600 or visit longhornvillage.com.
