All too often, it seems that suburban areas are characterized by an overwhelming sense of generic. The associations many people have with these neighborhoods include cookie-cutter houses that all look alike and an overt lack of trees. The Garey Park neighborhood of Georgetown is here to buck that stereotype. Featuring a diverse collection of architectural styles on streets with abundant native live oak trees, Garey Park is a suburb only in the sense that it provides residents with easy access to Interstate 35 for the 30-minute drive to Austin. “We see a lot of folks who work in Austin but don’t want to be in the city,” says Georgetown resident Robert Chambers, owner of Chambers & Co. Your Realty, who has been representing sales in the area for more than two decades. Due to the lack of sidewalks in the neighborhood and the fact that there is no rapid transit, residents do need to have their own cars, as most amenities are further away than would be considered a comfortable walk for most people.
Vista Heights homes are set on large, spacious lots.

Variety in home styles
Home styles in the neighborhood range from compact bungalows and ranch-style homes to lavish multi-story houses with amenities like in-ground pools. The median price of real estate in Garey Park is $630,000, and buyers should be prepared to pay just over $250 per square foot on average, though given the recent growth in the area, prices may soon be on their way up. “There’s a lot of new construction in Garey Park,” says Chambers. “The whole city is growing incredibly quickly, and Garey Park is growing right along with it.” A three-bedroom/two-bathroom ranch-style home can sell for about $450,000, and prices can go up to $2.75 million for a sprawling five-bedroom/four-bathroom Tudor on a nearly 3-acre lot.

Shop at the Wolf Ranch Town Center
When it’s time to stock up on groceries, residents of Garey Park head to H-E-B, located approximately 6 miles west on Ranch Road 2243. For home necessities, Walmart Supercenter is a little more than 8 miles northwest of the neighborhood on Interstate 35. For more intensive retail therapy, locals head to Wolf Ranch Town Center in downtown Georgetown, where they can shop ‘til they drop at stores like Kohl’s, Ross and Best Buy. For any unexpected medical emergencies, residents are close to the Scott and White Hospital in Georgetown and the Cedar Park Regional Medical Center, both of which are approximately 7 miles from the neighborhood. And when dining out is on the menu, a local favorite for Tex-Mex is Casamigos, where diners can fill up on their choice of traditional Mexican cuisine or burgers and fries, all served up in a fun and laid-back atmosphere.

Parks for people, dogs, and horses
For outdoor recreation, Garey Park – the park from which the neighborhood takes its name – is a 525-acre parcel that is the former site of residents Jack and Cammy Garey’s ranch. The couple donated the land to the city in 2004, and today it is Georgetown’s premiere recreation site. The park offers visitors access to a playground and splash pad, a dedicated dog park, more than 7 miles of hiking and horseback riding trails, an equestrian arena and picnic shelters. Garey Park is also the site of Garey House, an event facility that can be rented by the public. And the neighborhood’s proximity to Austin means that the array of recreational opportunities afforded by that urban center are within easy driving distance.

Garey Park is the largest park in Georgetown, Texas, at over 500 acres in size!
