What makes Cherrywood one of East Austin’s trendiest neighborhoods
Cherrywood packs old Austin charm into a walkable neighborhood of midcentury bungalows, tree-lined streets and local businesses. Just east of Interstate 35 and within 3 miles of downtown and the University of Texas, it's seeing the same wave of new construction reshaping much of East Austin, but it still holds onto its creative roots. Longtime Austinites and newcomers share the sidewalks as they grab coffee at Cherrywood Coffeehouse, walk their dogs around Patterson Park and go out to dinner on Manor Road's restaurant row. It's classic East Austin with room to grow.
Midcentury homes are a big part of the neighborhood's old Austin charm.

Midcentury homes and new construction with a range of prices
Cherrywood's housing stock reflects its post-World War II roots. The streets are lined with an eclectic mix of 1940s and ‘50s bungalows and ranch-style homes, no two of which look the same. Many of the neighborhood’s original homes have been updated, and it’s common to find an accessory dwelling unit tucked behind the main house. “That’s why you have a little more of a neighborhood-y feel in parts of the East Side, where literally every single house has a front house and back house,” says Will Steakley, a lifelong Austinite and co-founder of DEN Property Group. Some of those older homes have been replaced by new construction, so you’ll see a mix of midcentury charm and modern designs.
Midcentury homes typically sell from the mid-$400,000s to the upper $900,000s, though a few top $1 million. Newer construction tends to sell from the upper $500,000s to well above $1 million. Buyers will also find duplexes and small apartment buildings scattered among Cherrywood’s single-family homes. The neighborhood’s median sale price falls in the lower $600,000s, on par with East Austin communities like Rosewood and Chestnut, but more affordable than in master-planned Mueller.
Charming bungalows date back to the 1940s and '50s.

Walk to Manor Road's restaurants and bars from Cherrywood
Neighborhood life revolves around Cherrywood Coffeehouse. The cafe is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, so locals head there for breakfast tacos and coffee in the morning and beer and live music in the evenings. Manor Road is one of East Austin's most talked-about restaurant rows, with award-winning eateries along Cherrywood’s southern edge. You can walk or bike to Manor Road favorites, including:
Dai Due, a farm-to-table restaurant and butcher shop with wood-fired game
Salty Sow, a Southern gastropub with hearty plates and a popular happy hour
Bird Bird Biscuit, a weekend-morning staple for fried chicken biscuits
Este, a Baja-inspired Mexican seafood spot with a raw bar and an outdoor patio
Haymaker, a neighborhood sports bar with sandwiches and craft brews
The nightlife scene here includes low-key neighborhood favorites like Techo Mezcaleria & Agave Bar and School House Pub. Residents can get groceries right in the neighborhood at Fiesta Mart, and H-E-B is just across the interstate in Hancock Center.
Cherrywood Coffeehouse is a favorite hangout spot for residents.
Cherrywood residents love Dai Due for its local, fresh and sustainable meals.

Patterson Neighborhood Park anchors Cherrywood's outdoor scene
Patterson Neighborhood Park is Cherrywood’s biggest green space. It’s a local hub with a public pool, community garden, skate ramp and two playgrounds for younger and older kids. There are also tennis, basketball and sand volleyball courts. The Friends of Patterson Park is a volunteer-run group that hosts events in the park throughout the year, including an Easter egg hunt, fall festival and National Night Out picnic. Beyond Patterson, Cherrywood residents have a couple of smaller green spaces nearby, including:
Willowbrook Reach, a greenbelt on Boggy Creek that’s popular with dog walkers
Cherrywood Green, a small pocket park with picnic tables and an annual plant and book swap
Girard Kinney Park at Mueller, a lakeside green space with a walking loop and a Sunday farmers market
Southwest Greenway, a restored prairie with wildflowers, ponds and public art installations
Cherrywood residents often visit Cherrywood Green for its serene atmosphere.
Patterson Neighborhood Park offers tennis courts.

East Austin living near I-35, downtown and UT
Getting around Cherrywood is convenient thanks to its central East Austin location. I-35 runs along the neighborhood's western edge, and the 3-mile drive downtown usually takes about 10 minutes without traffic. "Austin is pretty small, in my opinion. You'll end up pretty much anywhere in 10 minutes," Steakley says. The University of Texas is even closer to home, with bike lanes connecting Cherrywood’s main streets to campus. U.S. Route 183 is a few miles north for trips to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport or The Domain. A few CapMetro bus routes serve the neighborhood, with connections to UT, downtown and beyond.
The Cherrywood neighborhood has quick access to downtown Austin.
CapMetro buses run frequently through Cherrywood, ensuring reliable transit.
