"Brykerwoods is community living in the heart of the city. I know all of my neighbors, some of whom have lived here for 30 years. The dog and I jog to Shoal Creek Park in the evening and the best restraunts are just right around the corner."
Passionate long-time residents and sturdy 1930’s single-family homes are what set Bryker Woods apart. Bordered by 35th street on the North and Westover Lane to the south, this historical area, first settled in 1886, stands as another established and sought-after neighborhood in Central Austin. Live on tucked away streets and lush lots with foliage and unpretentious gardens but find amenities, restaurants, and the medical community moments away. Easy access to the University and downtown areas attract UT faculty and staff and career families to the area. Exemplary schools on all levels plus walking distance to several recreational areas make Bryker Woods an ideal neighborhood for outdoor- loving families. Neighbors are politically and locally active and seek to protect development in the neighborhood and maintain the high standards Bryker Woods is known for.
Homes and quaint shops can be found along “Kerbey Lane” also the name of a favorite local restaurant famous for Austin-style service and mouth watering pancakes. Walk mere blocks to shop at several locally owned retail stores including an Austin original boutique: The Menagerie. Discover one of Austin’s finest flower shops, Austin Flower Shop, stocked with old favorites and new ideas right in your own backyard. Moving to Austin? Find your niche in Bryker Woods!
