An established neighborhood close to everything
Most homes in Round Rock West were built in the late 1970s and early 1980s, as reported. Decades later the trees have grown tall, the yards have filled in, and the neighborhood has the settled feel that newer communities take years to earn, while I-35, SH 45 and downtown Round Rock are all minutes away.
Room for a yard
Lots are generally larger than in newer neighborhoods, with many around a quarter acre or more, as reported, along with mature trees and established landscaping.
Not cookie cutter

Remodeled or original
Some homes have been fully updated with new kitchens and baths, while others remain closer to their original condition, a good fit for buyers who want to make a home their own.
