Lisa Van Allen purchased this House in 2013
Why Lisa Van Allen chose North Austin
With a King bed in master, queen guest, double twin guest, and two pull out sofas in living areas this is great for families or a small traveling party or it makes a great quiet spot for a couple getting away. Getting around Austin is all about access to Mopac (Loop One) and I-35 and this house is just 1 mile to either.
What makes this House unique
We think our house offers a great value because its so quiet and relaxed with the pond, pools etc on the trail out the back door and yet with the metro rail less than 2 miles away and both Mopac and I35 two minutes away you can get downtown or to the Domain or Outlet Malls very easy.

Notes
- This neighborhood was rated the best neighborhood in Texas for kids and the 7th best in the US so its obviously a great destination with kids. The way we've furnished it and set it up it also makes a great getaway for a couple or small group. Any questions?...don't hesitate to ask us. The park at the end of the street was raised Austin's 2nd best park.

Like staying at Grandma's - anything you want.
Quite comfortable. Completely stocked and furnished. Not particularly easy to find (take your GPS) but a very good location for outdoor activities. Bunk beds in the "boys" room, huge master bath, updated appliances etc and nicely furnished. Spotless. Toys and distractions everywhere. "Hidden" loft a big hit with the kids. Only miss was the bed in the "girls" room - wasn't really acceptable for 2 adults.
This is a beautiful, quiet place to play or relax.
This is way better than good. The deck overlooking the water and jogging trail makes it feel secluded while being in the middle of Round Rock surrounded by restaurants and shopping. The tennis complex is less than two minutes away and the park and lake are great. The house was clean and totally comfortable. We enjoyed streaming the Final Four and just kicked back and enjoyed just hanging out. I have to mention the antique Indonesian saddle. We do horses and have our share of saddles but nothing quite like this. It has to be at least 300 years old. I really enjoyed handling it. Thanks for a great Easter break.
So cute inside and out!
Loved the back yard and patio. It is just a few steps away from hiking trails and a beautiful park.
The house was comfortable and up to date.
The location was convenient to major routes to any where in Austin.
I would recommend this property to a friend.
An Amazing Stay!!!!
This house was so inviting when you walk through the door. It was more than we expected and we loved everything from the secret room upstairs to the sonos wireless system throughout the house to the deck with the hammock and outdoor fireplace. The trail and running stream behind the house was very beautiful and we were able to have a mini photoshoot. I will definitely be using this house again the next time i visit Austin!
Great Place!!
We really enjoyed our stay... the house is in great shape, very well located and all the amenities in place. We highly recommend it and in fact we are already planning to come back for the next F1 race in Austin!!
High Class and Comfortable
This place was so comfortable! Master bathroom and bedroom were perfect. The house is equipped with a Sonos sound system which easily connects with your phone and has speakers in every room, making for a great time. The backyard was clean and relaxing, and the access to the trail system was great for evening walks with my wife. The trails even lead you to the near-by pool, which was perfect for hot Austin. Also, the neighborhood of this location was excellent and safe. A high class place all around.
Map
There is a heated pool off the trail that is 82 degrees year round and a great seasonal pool the other way on the trail as well as Tennis, and amazing play ground for kids, and a free frisbee golf course at the end of the trail. The domain is 5 minutes away and the Round Rock Outlet malls are 10 minutes away. Downtown is only 15 to 20 minutes away. Great location with super easy access to Mopac and I35.
