AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Mill Creek Residential, a leading developer, owner-operator and investment manager specializing in premier rental housing across the U.S., today announced it has broken ground on Amavi Northwest Austin, a single-family, build-to-rent community in the Northwest Austin/Round Rock metropolitan area.

The community, which will feature 144 three- and four-bedroom townhomes, is situated less than five minutes from Apple Park—Austin's new 133-acre Apple campus—and within 20 minutes of Downtown Austin. The community is also immediately adjacent to the 95-acre Town and Country Park. First move-ins are anticipated for early 2027.

"Northwest Austin has always stood out to us as an exceptional and highly desirable part of the region," said Zach Summers, vice president of land acquisition for the Austin division of single-family rentals for Mill Creek. "Amavi Northwest Austin gives us a unique chance to bring a purpose-built single-family rental community to a highly sought-after location. We're excited to begin this development and introduce a one-of-a-kind offering to the area."

Situated at 13220 Morris Road, Amavi Northwest Austin is within a short commute of the key north-south thoroughfare U.S. Route 183, which provides connectivity to many of the area's primary employment centers. Dell's corporate headquarters is within 15 minutes of the community, which is home to approximately 13,000 jobs. The community is also conveniently located within a short drive of The Domain and offers numerous retail, grocery and recreational options, including an Anytime Fitness and a Life Time Fitness nearby.

Amavi Northwest Austin's townhomes will range from 1,457 to 2,060 square feet and offer private garages, select den layouts and live/work homes. Homes at the gated, pet-friendly community will feature nine-foot ceilings, wood-style plank flooring, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, in-home washers and dryers, smart thermostats, oversized primary bedrooms with large closets and private patios or balconies.
