Directly across the highway from the University of Texas, French Place reigns as East Austin’s most upscale neighborhood, filled with eclectic bungalow style homes from the 1940′s. No cookie cutter homes here, you’ll notice some creative color schemes and beautiful gardens up and down the tree lined streets. Home prices range from the mid $200,000′s to over $400,000. Many are updated and additions are very common as homes are bought and renovated, often adding a master bedroom and bath to the original two or three bedroom, one bath home.
It is an easy bike ride, bus hop, or short walk to the UT campus, but the homes are predominantly owner occupied. Walk to the grocery store on 38th 1/2, access just about everywhere from I-35 and enjoy some of Austin’s hottest restaurants along East Austin’s version of Restaurant Row on Manor Road. El Chile Cafe and Cantina, Vivo, and Mi Madres for Mexican food, Hoover’s Home Cooking, and even fine dining, Austin style, at the vaunted and venerable East Side Café, pioneering locavores who’ve been growing their own for over 20 years. This vibrant community is located east of I-35, north of Manor Road up to 38 ½ Street and to the east by Airport Boulevard.
Schools are Maplewood Elementary, Bedichek Middle and McCallum High School.
