Why you'd want to live in Old Town Georgetown
Welcome to Georgetown! This neighborhood is the heart and soul of the Georgetown lifestyle. Located between the historic downtown square, the San Gabriel River, San Gabriel Park, and Southwestern University, you are never wanting for something to do! Stately Victorian homes, cottages from the early 1900s and mid-century bungalows with mature trees and well-established gardens are what you can expect to find here. Whether you are walking the dog along the San Gabriel River Trail, having lunch at one of the many establishments on or around the square, or people watching from your front porch swing, you can enjoy the convenience of downtown living with all of the perks of a small town vibe. Conveniently located minutes away from I35 and TX130 you are a short commute away from even more shopping, dining, and local area attractions, plus you are no more than an hour away from downtown Austin. With so many styles and sizes of homes, there are plenty of options for everyone. Always wanted a 19th century home with a wrap around porch and a rose garden? Or perhaps you’ve dreamed of making over a mid-century home to perfectly fit your families needs. Known as both eclectic and charming, Old Town is a lesson in dichotomy. By far the neighborhood with the largest range of square footage, this is one of the only places in the area where you can find homes for under 1,000 square feet mingled in with homes above 4,000 square feet. Homes completely updated to mix charm with modern conveniences stand next to homes awaiting your genius to renovate. Classical gardens filled with roses, jasmine, and quaint seating for tea or conversation in the shade stand around the corner from gardens filled with agave and sage and pebble pathways sprinkled with sculptures. There are so many great choices, it’s easy to see why this is such a highly desired community. Homes with endless personality are within walking distance of the historic square, the park, and the river; this neighborhood offers the best of urban and suburban living.
