Outdoors, the BBQ pit adds another dimension for grilling and outdoor dining, with plenty of potential to create your own backyard oasis. The home is move-in ready and features a two-car garage, with the possibility to add a pool (buyer to verify). Families will love that Casis Elementary, just minutes away, boasts both a GreatSchools ranking and recognition as one of the best elementary schools in Texas by US News. The home is also conveniently close to St. Andrew's private elementary and middle school, The Girls' School, and offers easy access to hike and bike trails for outdoor enthusiasts. The location shines with its excellent walkability, making daily errands and outings to nearby shops, parks, and schools incredibly convenient. Tarrytown Park, known for its playscapes, is a community hub where neighbors mingle, kids play soccer or football, and dogs chase balls—bringing a true neighborhood feel to this quiet yet connected oasis.

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.
