1005 Possum Trot St, Austin, TX 78703

The sleek understated curb appeal reveals an interior that wows! This open concept, mid-century home with white oak, wide plank wood and concrete floors, and tons of beautiful windows has a light airy tree-house vibe, with an elegant Scandinavian Euro Modern style. The clean lines and elevated designer features are sure to impress. The gorgeous gourmet kitchen was designed for those who love organization and enjoy cooking and entertaining, with a huge Sub Zero fridge, expansive island, plenty of bar seating, Jenn-air 6 burner gas stove, double wall ovens, warming drawer, and silent Bosch dishwasher. The lush lot with mature trees, backs to a private greenbelt providing a relaxing, peaceful environment to enjoy the sport pool, leuder stone patio, play space and detached home office (not included in square footage). The primary bedroom has an adjoining sitting area and a balcony with lovely views of the backyard and greenbelt. The home was completely gutted and remodeled by previous owners in 2008 with new plumbing and wiring. Current owners have added many upgrades including a new metal roof, siding, HVACs, Tankless Water Heaters, Kanga office/studio, and much more. See list of improvements. Ideally situated, in Deep Eddy/Tarrytown, walking distance (just blocks) to the trail, Lady Bird Lake, Deep Eddy Pool, restaurants, the new HEB grocery store, Lions Golf Course, DT, and so much more. Zoned for exemplary Casis Elementary.

Tarrytown is a historic Central Austin neighborhood in 78703, five minutes from downtown and bordered by Lake Austin to the west. Median home price $1.95M. Austin ISD schools - Casis Elementary, O. Henry Middle, Austin High - and walkability to Deep Eddy Pool, Lady Bird Lake, and Mayfield Park.

The housing stock spans nine decades. Original 1930s-60s colonials, Tudors, and ranch homes sit alongside new construction and gut renovations on lots ranging from 0.15 to 0.3 acres. Lakefront properties on Scenic Drive and streets near Lake Austin command $4M-$15M+. The neighborhood's character has been protected by an engaged neighborhood association and the McMansion Ordinance, which limits building scale.

Daily life here runs on the water and the schools. Morning laps at Deep Eddy Pool (68-degree spring-fed water year-round), school drop-off at Casis, coffee at Tarrytown Pharmacy or Summer Moon, dinner at Jeffrey's or Josephine House without leaving the neighborhood. The Contemporary at Laguna Gloria and Lions Municipal Golf Course are a walk or short bike ride away.

What makes Tarrytown distinct from other luxury Austin neighborhoods: genuine walkability, a 90-year-old neighborhood identity, and Central Austin access that Westlake and Barton Creek cannot match. The tradeoff is Austin ISD instead of Eanes, and smaller lots than you'd find west of MoPac.
