A native Austinite, Celeste Quesada knows this town like the back of her hand. As Austin swiftly evolves and grows, Celeste is right there with it, helping her clients navigate the dynamic, fascinating and sometimes challenging currents of its real estate market.
Celeste’s deep experience as a producer, creative director and champion of Austin’s cultural arts scene makes her an ideal real estate agent in this landscape. She’s a project management whiz kid, an architecture-and-design aficionado and a force of positive energy. In fact, the Austin American-Statesman named Quesada one of the city’s “Out and About 500,” which recognizes individuals who are “everywhere, all the time, often doing good and weaving the social fabric of Austin and her community service has been featured by Austin Chronicle, Austin Way, Edible Austin, Austin Monthly’s “I Live Here I Give Here” issue, and Tribeza as a local leader.
A longtime enthusiast of all-things-stylicious—she boasts a monumental collection of Domino and Elle Décor magazines—Celeste is dedicated to helping her clients find their own sense of “home” while making smart investments in their future.
Though she enjoys all her hometown has to offer, Celeste admits her favorite “haunt” is her own South Austin home, which she shares with her husband, Grammy-winning musician/producer Adrian Quesada; their daughters, Amelie and Marcelle; two guinea pigs; two parakeets; and a 100 year old chihuahua named Ana Empanada Quesada.
Deeply committed to all of Austin’s “cultural jewels,” Celeste has proudly served as an advisory board member for the Health Alliance for Austin Musicians, The Nature Conservancy, KLRU and Creative Action. Quesada served as a philanthropic mentor for three consecutive years and is currently on the Board of Directors of I Live Here, I Give Here and serves as the chair of its Marketing and Communications Advisory Council.
