What is the Cherrywood market doing right now?

Cherrywood prices are lower than a year ago, but it remains one of the fastest markets in central Austin. Over the last 12 months, 43 homes sold at a median of $599,900, down 9.0% from $659,000 the year before, on 51 sales.

Homes are moving faster. The median home went under contract in 20 days, down from 26 days. The typical home sold for 95.0% of its original list price, up from 93.5%. The share of sold homes that had a price cut dropped from 43% to 33%.

With 8 homes for sale and about 3.6 sales a month, Cherrywood has 2.2 months of supply. That is a seller's market by the usual measure, driven by very low inventory: there are only 8 residential listings right now.

What does a home in Cherrywood cost?

The median Cherrywood sale over the last year was $599,900. Almost everything that sells is a house: 41 of the 43 sales were single-family homes, with a median of $599,900. There were 2 condo sales.

The house stock is mostly older: 29 of the 41 houses that sold were built before 1960, and 9 were built in 2010 or later. The median home for sale today is listed at $748,000, and the most expensive active listing is $1,199,900.

How fast do Cherrywood homes sell?

The median Cherrywood home took 20 days from listing to contract over the last 12 months, counted on cumulative days on market so a relisted home is not reset to zero. 33% of the homes that sold had cut their price at least once, and the typical sale closed at 95.0% of the original list price.

With so few listings, homes priced to the recent sales go under contract fast. For sellers, the practical read is that the first price does the work; for buyers, being ready with financing matters more than negotiating room.

Where is Cherrywood?

Cherrywood, which the MLS maps together with French Place, sits east of I-35 in the 78722 ZIP code, between Manor Road and 38th and a Half Street, west of Airport Boulevard. It is about 10 minutes from downtown, with Patterson Park inside the neighborhood and Mueller just to the northeast.

How we read these numbers

These figures are residential closed sales (single-family, condo and townhome) from the ACTRIS MLS whose location falls inside the Cherrywood / French Place boundary. Leases and sales under $40,000 are excluded. The current period is the 12 months ending September 27, 2026, compared with the 12 months before it. Days on market are cumulative. Sale price vs. original list is a median, and active counts include houses, condos and townhomes only, so the live search, which also shows land and multifamily, can list more. We publish neighborhood totals only, never an individual home's sale price.

Cherrywood questions, answered

What is the median home price in Cherrywood, Austin?

The median Cherrywood home sold for $599,900 over the 12 months ending September 2026, across 43 residential sales in the ACTRIS MLS. That is down 9.0% from $659,000 the year before. The median home for sale today is listed at $748,000. Almost every sale here is a house, so the median is a fair starting point, but age, size and condition still move a specific home well above or below it.

What kind of homes sell in Cherrywood?

Mostly older single-family houses. Of the 43 Cherrywood sales over the last 12 months, 41 were houses, with a median of $599,900, and there were just 2 condo sales. Of those 41 houses, 29 were built before 1960 and 9 were built in 2010 or later. There are only 8 residential listings right now, so if you want a house here, a saved search is the way to see new ones the day they list.

Is now a good time to buy in Cherrywood?

Cherrywood is in a seller's market, with about 2.2 months of supply as of September 2026. 33% of homes that sold had cut their price, and the typical home closed at 95.0% of its original list price. With only 8 residential listings and a 20-day median, well-priced homes go fast, and buyers who are pre-approved and ready have the advantage. Negotiating room depends on how the specific home was priced, not on the neighborhood as a whole.

Is Cherrywood cheaper than Mueller or Hyde Park?

Measured the same way over the same 12 months, Cherrywood had a median sale of $599,900 across 43 sales, compared with $870,000 across 109 sales in Mueller and $705,000 across 59 sales in Hyde Park. Comparing houses only, Cherrywood was $599,900, Mueller $998,750 and Hyde Park $833,000. The gap reflects the housing: Mueller is newer construction, while most Cherrywood houses that sold were built before 1960.

How do I buy a home in Cherrywood?

Get pre-approved first, then set up a saved search inside the Cherrywood boundary so new listings reach you the day they list. There are only 8 residential listings right now and the median home goes under contract in 20 days, so there is little time to arrange financing after you find one. About 7 in 10 houses that sold were built before 1960, so budget for foundation, sewer line, electrical and tree inspections.

What is the most common mistake sellers make in Cherrywood?

Launching above the recent sales. Over the last year, 33% of Cherrywood homes that sold had cut their price, and the typical home closed at 95.0% of its original list price. The homes that sold fastest launched in line with comparable sales nearby, of the same type and size. Low inventory tempts sellers to reach, but a third of sold homes still needed a cut. A home that sits and cuts usually ends up below the price a well-set launch would have brought.

Do new houses in Cherrywood sell for much more than older ones?

Some, but less than in many central neighborhoods. Of the 41 Cherrywood houses that sold over the last 12 months, the 29 built before 1960 had a median of $599,900, and the 9 built in 2010 or later had a median of $700,000. With only 9 newer sales, one or two homes can move that number. Size, lot and condition explain much of the spread, so price from sales of similar homes nearby.

How long does it take to sell a house in Cherrywood?

The median Cherrywood home took 20 days to go under contract over the last 12 months, counted on cumulative days on market so relisted homes are not reset. That is faster than the year before, when the median was 26 days. Add roughly 30 to 45 days from contract to closing. A home priced in line with recent sales on launch day usually goes under contract in a few weeks; one that needs a price cut usually takes much longer.

What ZIP code is Cherrywood in?

All 43 Cherrywood sales over the last year were in the 78722 ZIP code. That small ZIP code is mostly Cherrywood and its neighbors, but ZIP-level statistics still blend different streets and housing. The figures on this page are calculated only from sales inside the Cherrywood and French Place boundary used by the MLS: a median of $599,900 across 43 sales.

How do I find out what my Cherrywood home is worth?

Request a home value from us and we will price it against the Cherrywood sales that actually match it: same home type, similar size, age and condition, and nearby streets, from the last 12 months of ACTRIS MLS closings. For context, the neighborhood median was $599,900 across 43 sales, and the typical home closed at 95.0% of its original list price. An online estimate cannot see the age, condition or remodel history of an older house, which drive most of the spread here.
