Not long after it was established as a suburb in 1915, Tarrytown was being touted as a picture-perfect place “where oak trees charm the eye.” And so it remains today, with its lush canopy shading high-demand homes tucked along a scenic stretch of Lake Austin.
It’s not unusual for generations of the same family to stick to their Tarrytown roots, which adds to the neighborhood’s small-town spirit. There is no denying residents’ homegrown pride for their area, which is apparent in everything from their neatly kept lawns to their penchant for patronizing longtime local businesses like Tarrytown Pharmacy, opened in 1941.
Landmarks known for their natural beauty and historical appeal are dotted throughout Tarrytown. You can spend an afternoon amid stunning sculptures at the Contemporary Austin’s lakeside Laguna Gloria campus, play a round at Muny, the city’s oldest public golf course, or admire the peacocks that roam the gardens at the 21-acre Mayfield Park.
Decidedly not cookie-cutter in appearance, Tarrytown streets are lined with both traditional estates that have stood the test of time, as well as brand-new commissions by high-profile architects. The latter are often built around majestic mature trees, and homes with a little acreage and/or a pool command a premium.
