Taylor, Texas Home of the Might Ducks

Taylor, Tx

I passed through Taylor, Texas this weekend and must admit, the town is getting bigger.  More and more businesses are taking advantage of the small town flair, the affordibility of housing, office space and the friendly downhome Texan atmosphere.  When I moved to Austin years ago, Taylor was a six pack away, now, due to the growth of Hutto, Round Rock, Coupland, Manor, Pflugerville...Taylor is just minutes away.  New housing communities are appearing in what was once pastures. Taylor has many new possibilities and opportunities.  Check it out and definately eat at Louis Mueller Barbeque on Hwy 79 while you are there, mmmmmmmm.

It is no wonder that Brodie Springs in southwest Austin has very quickly become a very desirable place to call home. The homesites are large and most if not all have mature trees. Lots of green space gives you that country feeling. The homes range in size from about 2600 sqft to about 4000sqft . Brodie Springs is located just off Brodie Lane less than a mile south of Slaughter Lane. This gives you easy access to either I 35 or Mopac (loop 1). There is so much shopping in the area. Both South Park Meadows and Sunset Valley Malls are only about 5 miles away. There are many things to do in the area like visiting the Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center, the Austin Veloway and much much more.

This venture on her part helps give me the motivation to continue and should do the same for any agent in real estate right now. We are now well represented in the Bastrop Texas real estate market.

Established in the mid 1800's, Wimberley sits on the banks of Cypress Creek and The Blanco River and is surrounded by the Texas Hill Country. Today Wimberly is a resort and retirement community, although there are many active authors and artists that make their homes in and around Wimberley . With the views of the hill country and the river and streams coupled with the laid back atmosphere, it is no wonder Travel Holiday Magazine designated Wimberley as one of America's ten best small towns.
