Calling Tarrytown Home
Tarrytown is bordered on the north by West 35th Street, Enfield Road to the south, MoPac to the east, and Lake Austin on the west. A large part of the area’s appeal comes from its one-of-a-kind location, sitting in a position mere minutes from the heart of downtown Austin. At the same time Tarrytown's numerous architectural gems in these quiet and impeccably clean neighborhoods are generously surrounded by the lush foliage from old shade trees, giving off the feel of a secluded, peaceful sanctuary from the nearby urban cityscape.
In a diverse city populated by such distinct groups as college students, struggling musicians and self-described old-school "hippies", Austin is a town that likes to keep it "weird". So it might be odd to think that this city has an "in" crowd. It does, and if they're in Austin's business, cultural or political elite, chances are this is where you’ll find them. Lance Armstrong once called Tarrytown home. Actor Matthew McConaughey famously caused a stir at his residence, in what Austinites now know as the “naked bongo-drum” incident. President George W. Bush and Governor Rick Perry have lived here, as does much of Austin’s political establishment.
Properties in this area are usually nothing short of visually stunning. They range in sizes and styles, from smaller, early-twentieth century cottages to larger, fully updated modern dwellings. If they have one thing in common, it is that they are well maintained and tastefully landscaped, exuding a real pride in ownership. A casual ride up and down the streets reveals any number of continuing home improvement projects and renovations in the works, but they never distract from what is overall a very pleasant impression.
Tarrytown is very family-friendly, with a focus on kids’ sports and activities. Adults in town are actively involved in funding and coaching organized leagues in football, baseball and soccer. Parents are equally dedicated to their schools. Both Casis Elementary and O. Henry Middle School are highly regarded.
Such a lifestyle comes with a significant price tag, however. Tarrytown can lay claim to some of Austin’s most expensive real estate.
Tarrytown residents are known for being fiercely devoted to preserving the integrity of the place they live, and they are not afraid to make their voices heard. Neighborhood groups are highly organized and politically engaged -- perhaps because they know so many elected officials, local media personalities and city leaders live among them. From monitoring the progress of a future commuter rail stop at 35th Street to debating the merits of creating a local historic district, they never hesitate to weigh in on issues that impact the area.
The most famous recent example was the contentious and headline-grabbing fight over the City Council’s “McMansion” ordinance, which imposed restrictions on the size and scope of construction that property owners could undertake. It was meant to curb what some felt were excessive, oversized and garish architectural eyesores that were compromising the spirit of the old and revered neighborhoods. It spawned a highly emotional showdown. Traditionalists sided with the move, citing preservation concerns. Others took the new law as an affront, citing their private property rights, and feared the ordinance could negatively impact their property values.
