This low-rise condominium complex in central Austin was completed in 1997 and consists of single-story buildings arranged around shared outdoor space. Units are primarily two- and three-bedroom floorplans with features such as vaulted and high ceilings, open layouts, multiple dining areas, and generous closet storage including walk-in closets and dual primary suites in select homes. Interiors commonly show upgraded finishes—granite or quartz counters, laminate or wood-look flooring, recessed lighting, crown molding, and built-in bookcases—with in-unit laundry hookups and smart thermostat readiness. The community emphasizes easy access: elevator service to select levels, private entrances for some units, balconies overlooking the pool or courtyard, and elevator or step-free options where noted. On-site amenities include a gated underground parking garage with reserved spaces, a small swimming pool, an uncovered courtyard with grills and seating, and controlled access. HOA coverage typically handles trash and sewer; the property is managed for both long-term residents and investors with established rental demand due to its immediate proximity to the University of Texas, The Drag, shops and restaurants. Pet and leasing restrictions vary by unit; some units have been converted or reconfigured to add bedrooms. Overall the complex reads as a compact, well-maintained West Campus community built for convenience and rental viability.
