Shady Hollow is a leafy pocket of southwest Austin known for wide, quiet streets, mature oaks, and homes on generous lots that invite front-porch conversations and backyard weekends. In Travis County, it sits near Circle C Ranch and Bauerle Ranch, offering a residential feel with quick access to city conveniences. The neighborhood’s strong community spirit shows up in seasonal gatherings, swim team meets, and park playdates that make it easy to plug in.
Families prize the schools. Younger students often attend Baranoff Elementary, continue to Bailey Middle School, and move on to James Bowie High School, all part of Austin ISD. Outdoor time comes naturally here: neighborhood greenbelts thread through shady cul-de-sacs, and the expansive Mary Moore Searight Metropolitan Park brings miles of trails, creekside picnic spots, disc golf, and sports fields just minutes away. The Shady Hollow Homeowners Association maintains a community center, pool, tennis courts, and pocket parks, adding wellness and social options without leaving the neighborhood.
Daily errands are simple along the Brodie Lane corridor, with local cafés, fitness studios, and grocery options, while Southpark Meadows and the museums, music, and eateries of greater Austin are an easy drive. If you’re weighing a move, Shady Hollow offers a balanced lifestyle: suburban calm, respected schools, and practical access to the city.
