South Manchaca is one of the quieter South Austin neighborhoods I show buyers who want mature trees and a real neighborhood feel but don’t want to give up easy access to the rest of the city. It sits along Manchaca Road with Ben White Boulevard just to the north, and it’s close enough to Westgate, Garrison Park, and South Lamar that you’re never far from shopping or restaurants. Search the current South Manchaca listings below, and reach out anytime if you want my take on a specific property.
I’m Robbie English, Managing Broker for Uncommon Realty, and I’d love to help you find the right property.
Living in South Manchaca
South Manchaca is a neighborhood of roughly 6,000 residents in the 78745 zip code, bordered by Manchaca Road to the east and Highway 71 to the north. That highway access means you’re minutes from grocery stores, chain restaurants, and shopping along the corridor, while the interior streets stay quiet and residential. Schools in the area include Odom Elementary, Joslin Elementary, St. Elmo Elementary, and Bedichek Middle School, feeding into Crockett High School in Austin ISD.
Homes in South Manchaca
The neighborhood has a mix of home ages typical of South Austin — original mid-century single-family homes alongside newer infill construction, most on established lots with mature trees. If you’re looking for older Austin character with room to update, or a newer build that still feels like a real neighborhood, South Manchaca has both.
