| Don't
tell anyone, but Briarcliff Texas is one of the best kept
secrets and best places to live in central Texas. I should know,
I live there. With affordable housing, great lake and hill
country views and a
peaceful laidback lifestyle, Briarcliff has it all. Located just
minutes from Austin Texas, Briarcliff is a short commute, and is
just 20 minutes from the new
Hill Country Galleria Mall.
The area is rich with wildlife, fun in the Sun, and don't forget
Paleface Park. Briarcliff, Texas is located in
Travis County, 30 miles west of Austin on the south shore of
Lake Travis. The Briarcliff Subdivision was developed in the
late 1960s. From the 1960s to 1984, the only governing body of the
subdivision was the Briarcliff Property Owners Association, Inc. (BPOA). In
1984 residents approved incorporation of the Village of Briarcliff, to
include the Briarcliff subdivision and two subdivisions on the north side of Cat Hollow, Cat Hollow
Club and Perry's White Cliff. The BPOA Board and the
Village Council work together to maintain a country atmosphere for the over
1200 residents of Briarcliff.
Amenities that are available to the residents of the Briarcliff
Subdivision are the BPOA's Community Center, tennis courts, and a central
park with play ground, basketball courts, pavilion, and picnic areas. Also
available to the residents of all three subdivisions that make up the
Village of Briarcliff are the privately owned Pedernales Country Club Golf
Course (Willie Nelson's course), the Briarcliff Marina, the Lakehouse Cafe,
and for casual dining, Lee's Almost By The Lake is located just outside the
front entrance.
Electricity is provided by Pedernales Electric Cooperative;
cable television service from Time Warner Cable; fire and medical services
by the Pedernales Emergency Services. Postal service is provided by the
Spicewood Post Office in Burnet County (zip code 78669). The Lake Travis
Independent School District operates bus service in Briarcliff. |
