“Right before south turns into southwest Austin you can find me in my very own little slice of ‘Keep Austin Weird’.”
Between Ben White to the North and Westgate Blvd. to the South, Western Trails is a quiet neighborhood tucked behind some of the best dining & grocery establishments on the way to Southwest Austin. Central Market, Hyde Park Bar & Grill, Whole Earth Provision (Gear), and Westgate Theater in Gateway Shopping Center are just around the corner from shaded streets and family homes. Manchaca stands as the eastern boundary of Western Trails and the area park, Joslin Park (and school) can be found there.
With quick access to many of the areas major highways, Western Trail offers easy driving to downtown (10-15 minute commute depending on traffic), south Austin living and culture, and a strait shot to Austin Bergstrom Airport. Longtime residents, young families, and professionals seeking proximity to work dwell here and enjoy the established foliage and older homes. Moderately priced homes, select apartment and duplex offerings and access to services bring diversity and convenience to residential living.
Beat the Austin summer heat at the Westgate Theater or spend a chilly evening listening to live music and sipping coffee at the Central Market south cafe. Enjoy the Farmers Market at Tony Burger Center on Saturday mornings or take a Sunday stroll through the Barton Creek green belt nearby. Western Trails keeps old-style Austin affordable and attractive to the first-time home buyer.
