TERAVISTA
Located along the I- 35 corridor off
Chandler Road, Teravista is easily
accessible to shopping, and offers a
short commute for those working in
North Austin and homes starting in the
$200s. Gently curving streets, charming
cul-de-sacs and beautiful green areas
en-courage families and children to get
out and explore their community, which
is right in keeping with the spirit of this
Round Rock community.
From the neighborly attitudes to the
natural habitat and walking trails to the
actual high tech connections built within
each home – it’s all here in this master
planned golf course community. Resi-
dents have an opportunity to get to know
each other through regular socials and
other activities, while the information
center provides homebuyers with help and
other services long after getting settled.
Children attend school in the award-win-
ning Round Rock Independent School
District, and the open landscaping here
gives them lots of room to roam. In addi-
tion to an 18-hole championship golf
course and clubhouse, Teravista has a host
of other amenities – including lighted
tennis courts, two community swimming
pools, and hiking paths.
Taylor is a great place to live, work and
raise a family – as well as convenient
and accessible to wherever you might
need to go. Located just 20 minutes east
of IH 35 and 35 minutes from downtown Austin and ABIA, the city is the
crossroad of SH 95 and U. S. Hwy 79
with Amtrak train service, Capital Area
Rural Transit bus service and a general
aviation, municipal airport. It’s easy to
reach from anywhere.
Newcomers to Taylor can’t help but be
charmed by this town that is steeped in
both tradition and family pride. The
turn-of-the-century historic downtown is
listed on the National Register of Historic
Places and is the home of world renowned
Louie Mueller Barbecue, recipient of the
prestigious James Beard Foundation’s
“American Classics” Award. Barbecue
is legendary in Taylor, all different and
all good. Unique shopping may be
found downtown including shabby chic,
antiques and high quality boutiques and
restaurants.
Quality education is a priority for this
community, too – the new, $38 million
Taylor High School opened in 2011. And,
support for the community’s Legacy Early
College High School has helped qualifying students receive associates degrees
from the East Williamson County Higher
Education Center at the same time they
receive their high school diploma.
Taylor is a good place to call home.
Housing from every price point is available including new homes, vintage homes
and historical homes in mature, tree-lined
neighborhoods. Taylor also is home to
many beautiful, historic churches. There
is a strong sense of community with
traditional activities like the Zest Fest
each spring, July 4th celebrations, the
Taylor Rodeo, an International Barbecue
Cook-off, and fun holiday activities.
Taylor is also a city of parks with more
than 311 acres of parkland and open
spaces including nearly 10 miles of hike
and bike trails and sidewalks. The Taylor
Regional Park and Sports Complex is
a state of the art sports facility that is
located adjacent to the East Williamson
County Event Center and draws more
than 100,000 visitors per year. All parks
are Wi-Fi accessible, too.
For outdoor enthusiasts, Lake Granger is
just a short drive away for fishing, boating,
bird watching, camping and swimming –
all of which only add to Taylor’s unique
and charming quality of life.
