Cross Creek: New Homes in Hutto, Tx

Published | Posted by Brandon Holley

Disclosure: Transcribed from video. The wording may be off. 

Hutto is among the top 100 places in major markets to locate your business, making Cross Creek by Meritage Homes the perfect area! 

The legend of the Hutto Hippo dates back to 1915, when a circus train stopped in the city, and a Hippo escaped. Luckily the streets are safe now. So what is going on, everyone? My name is Brandon Holley, and I am the broker at Holley Homes Realty here in Austin, Tx, and your new home expert. We will venture North of Austin today to check out a community built by Meritage Homes. My favorite thing about Meritage Homes is their efficiency in this Texas Heat. We will get to that later, but first, let's jump into some information about the model home and community. 

  • Hutto is 28 miles northeast of Austin and was recently recognized as the top place to raise a family. 
  • Cross Creek has two sections. The meadows are built on 45-foot lots, and The Hills are built on 50-foot lots. 
  • Homes are starting in the high $300's. There are 13-floor plans to choose from, ranging from 1477 SqFt to 2700 SqFt. 
  • Meritage is the only builder in the community. What sets Meritage Homes apart is how efficient their homes are compared to other builders. They are the only builder using spray foam, which creates a tighter seal on the house, saving your electric bills. If you want to learn more about this process, check out the link below. 

Another great thing about Meritage is what you see is what you get. All of these features come standard with the home. So if you have questions about floor plans, pricing, or availability, reach out to me, and I can get you current information. If Hutto is not for you, check out my new community guide for more communities around Central Texas. You can DL that from the link below. Also, if you have not already, hit like and subscribe as I bring you information about new communities each week. Now that we know more about the homes in the community, let's go ahead and check out the amenities.


  • Within the neighborhood, you have a 3.5-acre park, community pool, and covered pavilion. The park has a few disc golf holes and a great open space for sports or leisure activities. 
  • Outside of the community, you have Hutto Lake Park, Old Settlers Park, and the Dell Diamond is close.
  • There is also a splash pad, trails, and this awesome playscape. 

Another great thing about cross creek is you are part of Hutto ISD, which has a student-teacher ratio of 16-1. So let's explore the schools a little more. 

  • As I mentioned, students will attend Hutto ISD and attend Hutto elementary, middle, and High school. 
  • The school district has 8,700 students. 
  • Hutto is still a small town, so all the schools are within 3 miles of the community. 
  • Fun Fact Hutto is the only school with a Hippo as its mascot. 


  • Here are a few key distances for you. Since Hutto is growing rapidly, you can imagine new places will continue to pop up.
  • Hutto is situated right off of the 130 toll, which makes it convenient to travel. If you want to get northwest to Leander or south to the airport, you won't have much trouble. 

This community is one to check out. If you have questions about availability, inventory, or floor plans, reach out to me, and I can forward you the current information. Also, if this community is not for you, there are plenty of others that might fit what you are looking for in a home. DL my new community guide by following the link below.

*Disclaimer - All neighborhoods are different. Please speak to an agent to get all the facts straight. Also, equity is not guaranteed and fluctuates with the real estate market.

If you have questions about new construction, please reach out to me. The builder pays the commission, and it is my job to be knowledgeable about these communities.
