A neighborhood made for you, not one that owns you: Gabardine is unlike any place you have ever lived . . . In the past, your house owned you - you had to mow the yard, water the grass, take care of the roof and home exterior, and worry whether your neighbor would mow his yard this week.   No more.   Your home's yard maintenance, seasonal plantings and exterior home maintenance are all part of the homeowner association's responsibilities.   You just live.  Lock and leave.  Enjoy golf or UT tailgating on Saturday instead of yard work.  Sip an evening glass of wine in the courtyard and enjoy your neighbors rather than watering the grass.  Live and love the Gabardine lifestyle.

At last. You've reached the tailored little pocket of Shady Hollow.

Tucked in among vintage oaks in south Austin, Gabardine is the newest addition to the Shady Hollow neighborhood. Known for its serene atmosphere, great schools, and eclectic mix of shopping, restaurants, churches, and recreational outlets, Shady Hollow is one of the most sought after areas of town for many home buyers. So hello, home buyer.

Yep, Gabardine is a different kind of community for the Shady Hollow area. It preserves over 13 acres of a lushly treed greenbelt, which graces a gated community of low-maintenance homes. Choose from a variety of 2, 3 and 4 bedroom bungalows and flats, with home prices ranging from the mid-$100s to the low-$200s. Each home includes a fenced, irrigated yard and an all-important garage. And all are well-appointed with strategically-placed windows to take advantage of cross-ventilation and gobs of natural light. Can light be measured in gobs? Anyway, evocative of the Craftsman style, each home features Hardie siding with stone accents, and is surrounded by native landscaping.

And you can't be all about tailored living if you can't choose your own stuff. So Gabardine offers a beautiful range of standard interior design choices. And lots of incredible upgrades as well.

Sound like a place that's been designed just for you? No big surprise. We knew you were coming.

Welcome.
