Tarrytown

Welcome to Tarrytown

 
Historic homes nestled in a private, walkable, and charming community
 
 
Touted as one of the most well-known neighborhoods in Austin, Tarrytown exudes history, beauty, and charm. The remarkable story of Tarrytown dates back to 1934 when two founders of the development, Paul Crusemann and Carrie Margaret Graham, felt it was so peaceful they named it after their summer home location in Tarrytown, New York. Formerly acres of farmland, Tarrytown holds a quiet essence while keeping up with today’s sought-after modern amenities. 
 
The neighborhood is known for its boutique shops, incredible dining options, and outdoor activities. Intentionally designed to evoke the charm of Lake Como retreats, the stunning houses perched along Lake Austin offer a beautiful array of architecture and complement the community’s connection to nature. Thanks to early urban planning, today, neighborhood residents enjoy a secluded and walkable community with access to ample amenities.

Local Lifestyle

On the east side of town, residents enjoy easy access to Loop 1, which extends south and connects to downtown Austin. 
 
The area's houses overflow with rich history, and many are canopied by stunning oak trees as old as the town itself. Tarrytown has a Walk Score of 92, the same score as Downtown Austin. That mixture of natural beauty and accessibility is unique and prized by locals. Tarrytown also has incredible restaurants, shopping options, and an abundance of parks and nature preserves. This neighborhood is an exceptional fit for anyone who loves spending time outdoors and enjoys sprawling Texan beauty.
 

Dining, Shopping & Entertainment

 
Tarrytown is filled with hot restaurants and shopping for Austinites. One favorite is Hearth & Soul. This boutique is known for its one-of-a-kind gifts and home goods, as well as its clothing items for men and women. You can even pick up a new toy, leash, or pet shirt for your pup!
 
Highly anticipated since it was first announced, Flo’s Wine Bar and Bottle Shop is opening some time in 2023. Located at 3111 West 35th Street in Tarrytown, this new wine shop will have over 250 labels available — both by the glass and bottle — for drinking at the shop, or to take home.
 
Looking for a top-rated eatery and pub that is already lauded by Tarrytown residents? Look no further than The Beer Plant. Boasting 40 craft beer taps and a delectable menu of vegan fare, this is a must-visit restaurant.
 

Things to Do

 
Located just five miles from downtown, The Contemporary Austin - Laguna Gloria is a unique art museum that displays art from around the world along its natural walking paths for an experience unique to the community.   
 
For a day filled with outdoor fun, locals head to Reed Neighborhood Park. This community gem has a nature trail, barbecue pit, playground, and swimming pool for summer fun. Mayfield Park and Nature Preserve have 21 acres of protected land, with numerous walking trails to observe the wildlife habitat.
 
If you’re looking to hit the links, one of the city’s most popular courses, Lions Municipal Golf Course, is minutes away from the center of Tarrytown. The course hosts the state’s oldest amateur tournament, the Firecracker Open.
 
To prepare for a festive autumn season, residents look forward to the Tarrytown United Methodist Pumpkin Patch every year. A wholesome family event that continues throughout October, the church manages to sell around 3,000 pumpkins a season to the community.
 
The ACL Music Festival at Zilker Park is a can’t-miss yearly event for music lovers. This four-day festival routinely produces an incredible lineup while serving the best bites in town from Austin’s most acclaimed restaurants.
