About this property

Some streets in Austin carry a different kind of weight. Kent Lane is one of them, a quiet, tree-lined enclave in the heart of Tarrytown where the homes are lived in and the neighbors know each other's names. Set on a generous 0.412-acre lot, this two-story Tarrytown home offers 3,511 sq ft with five beds, three full baths, and one-half bath, and the kind of proportions that simply do not exist in new construction. Built in 1939, the home carries an authenticity and permanence that only comes with time: gracious rooms, thoughtful bones, and a sense of place that is immediately felt. Inside, multiple living areas afford real flexibility for family life, guests, or working from home. The floor plan is designed for the way people actually live, connected but not cramped, generous without being impractical. A primary suite offers a private retreat, while the additional bedrooms provide true separation and space. Hardwood floors, period details, and the natural light that pours through the windows give the home its warmth. The attached two-car garage includes an EV charger. Outside, the lot is the headline. At nearly half an acre in Tarrytown, the backyard offers exceptional depth and privacy, room for a pool, a garden, or simply the mature oaks that have kept this property shaded for generations. The 0.412-acre footprint is rare, and in this neighborhood, it will not be replicated. The location speaks for itself. Casis Elementary, O. Henry Middle School, and Austin High School as well as access to the Lady Bird Lake Hike and Bike Trail are blocks away. Lake Austin and Westenfield Park, with its tennis & pickleball courts, playground, and dog park, are minutes away on foot or by bicycle. Clarksville, the University of Texas, Lake Austin HEB, and downtown Austin are all within easy reach. Tarrytown properties of this scale, on this street, with this lot, do not come available often. 1311 Kent Lane is one of them.
