Aged oak trees line the streets in Austin's Tarrytown neighborhood
Like the village in Upstate New York from which the neighborhood takes its name, Tarrytown radiates small-town charm. Even though it’s just 3 miles from downtown Austin, the Tarrytown neighborhood feels like a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Quiet streets lined with centuries-old live oaks give rise to the neighborhood’s motto: “Where oak trees charm the eye.” Tarrytown is one of Austin’s oldest and most desirable neighborhoods, offering access to excellent schools, a wide range of amenities and majestic homes that combine to create a uniquely Austin aesthetic.
A wide range of housing options
Given that the neighborhood dates back to 1934, it’s perhaps not surprising that many homes in Tarrytown are historic, including the Walsh house, built in 1926. Many more recently built homes were designed to fit the historic ethos of the neighborhood. There are also plenty of condominiums and townhouses, as well as sleek, contemporary single-family homes available. The median price of real estate in Tarrytown is just over $2 million, and buyers should be prepared to pay an average of $692 per square foot. Condo prices can range from $325,000 for a two-bedroom/one-bathroom up to $1 million for a three-bedroom/three-bathroom. Townhouse prices go from $1.2 million for a four-bedroom/four-bathroom up to $2.25 million for a five-bedroom/seven-bathroom. Single-family home prices start at $1 million for a three-bedroom/two-bath bungalow and go up to $4.7 million for a five-bedroom/six-bathroom Mediterranean-inspired contemporary.
Tarrytown's luxury homes often feature lush, manicured gardens.

Henry Middle and Austin High School. Casis earns an A rating from Niche, O. Henry earns an A-minus and Austin High School gets an A.

An active outdoor community
For residents of Tarrytown, staying active is second nature, no pun intended. With the Colorado River as its western boundary, the neighborhood affords residents easy access to kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, fishing or just relaxing on the riverbank. Golfers can hit the links at Lions Municipal Golf Club, and dog lovers can take their furry family members to explore and socialize at Red Bud Isle, a 13-acre off-leash dog park. There are also multiple community parks within Tarrytown, including Mayfield Park, a tree-shaded urban oasis and home to several peacocks who freely roam the grounds. Parents will also find playgrounds for kids, walking trails and picnic tables at both Reed Park and Tarrytown Neighborhood Park. For cooling off during the hot Austin summer, there’s no better place than Deep Eddy pool, the oldest public swimming pool in Texas and home to a bathhouse built during the Great Depression.

Quintessential Austin dining
Despite the relatively upscale nature of Tarrytown, the dining scene in the neighborhood runs the gamut from riverside casual to more upscale. The restaurants at Oyster Landing Marina – including Mozart’s Coffee Roasters and Hula Hut – feature a range of offerings that highlight fresh seafood and specialty cocktails. For a little more elevated cuisine, The Beer Plant is a perfect neighborhood spot for date night or other special dinners. And because of the neighborhood’s central location and proximity to the MoPac Expressway, the shops and restaurants of downtown Austin are just a short drive away.
