A classic, relaxed Austin neighborhood
Situated in north central Austin, Brentwood has a classic neighborhood feel without sacrificing location. “It’s a relaxed neighborhood that has walkable streets and trails, all shaded by mature trees,” says Ryan Gomillion, a Realtor with Copland Property Group who’s been selling in the area since 2016. “You can find many parks and schools in the neighborhood, as well as several restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries and hangouts.” The city of Austin annexed the area's land in the 1940s and many of the pitched-roof bungalows still standing today were built and inhabited by GIs returning from the war.
