Tarrytown is renowned for its impressive homes and illustrious addresses. Right on the edge of Lake Austin, with a golf course, nature preserve and the best of what Central Austin has to offer right next door if you're looking for a neighborhood that has it all, the Tarrytown homes will speak to your senses.

Tarrytown is, some say, Austin's most prestigious address and it certainly is where many of the city's movers and shakers live. Austin's Tarrytown is usually defined as the area bounded by 35th Street in the North, Enfield in the South, MoPac in the East and Lake Austin on the West.

For our purposes, we have expanded the neighborhood boundaries just a little further South to include Lake Austin Boulevard, an area that includes many businesses serving Tarrytown. Running through the middle of Tarrytown is Exposition Boulevard where some of the small businesses serving this Austin neighborhood are located, including a large Randall's grocery store -- there is a second Randall's at the Southern end of Exposition where it meets Lake Austin Boulevard.

Tarrytown has lots of great restaurants like the Nu Age Cafe, Magnolia Cafe and the Hula Hut. There has been a nice juice bar called the Juice Appeal that has opened up on Lake Austin Blvd just across the street from the Magnolia Cafe. I love getting a juice shake after walking around Lady Bird Lake. This is definitely a nice spot to visit.

Reed Park, in the heart of Tarrytown, is where area residents go to swim, hike and bike, relax and picnic. On the Southern edge of the neighborhood is the Lions Municipal, one of Austin's excellent municipal golf courses. Another popular nearby site, South of Lake Austin Boulevard is Deep Eddy Pool in Eilers Park. The swimming pool is a neighborhood gathering point for swimmers from February to October and in summertime Austin locals gather for picnics during movie nights, an activity that seems to match the mood of this neighborhood.
