Barton Hills is one of 78704’s least talked about neighborhoods. But, its also one of the most unique and uniform. Tucked between South Austin’s Zilker neighborhood and Zilker Park, Barton Hills residents don’t see too much traffic. And, with its rolling hills and highly rated schools, Barton Hills residents get more of a Northwest Austin suburban feel than a South Austin neighborhood. You’ll find everything from 1950s homes in original condition to more updated, modern looking homes. Because of the mature landscaping, many of the homes feel like they’re tree houses, a quality residents are attracted to.
