“Ridgetop has everything I need right where I need it. And I never have far to go for work or play!”
True diversity abounds in this enclave bordered by Airport Blvd to the west and IH 35 to the east. Families, downtown travelers, and a sprinkling of students enjoy true urban living but with the luxury of lawns and trees surrounding cozy homes. Find any amenity imaginable along Airport Blvd including a chance to shop local AND historic at Lammes Candies – established in 1885, don’t miss their Signature Longhorns and “Texas Chewie” Pecan Pralines or chocolate covered strawberries for Valentines Day. Quality Seafood and Burger Tex are two more Airport Blvd. staples that you shouldn’t miss. Hancock shopping center complete with HEB and 24 hour fitness is just around the corner and South of Ridgetop. Utilize the 290/IH 35 cross over to zip across town or out of the city as needed.
State of the art homes, parks, and shopping have just erupted across the highway at Mueller Development (also home to Dell Children’s Medical Center). In Ridgetop you will find that moving to Austin is a breeze with easy access to everything you need at home, work, and play but with a price tag you can live with.
