Greenshores is a gorgeous community that is in and around the Emma Long Metropolitan Park just to the west of N. Capital of Texas Hwy. (360) and wrapped by Lake Austin almost like a mini peninsula. Greenshores is broken into three sections, each of which offer luxury custom-built homes: The Landing, The Overlook, and The Woods. Each of the sections provides privacy, large lots, quiet streets, and large mature trees. There are also lake front properties offering private boat docks and slips.
The Greenshores communities are slightly off the beaten path with a route of less-traveled, winding roads leading into the neighborhood area. They are surrounded by trees and forestry making the area feel secluded. Living in Greenshores you can enjoy a day of boating out on Lake Austin and then stop off and grab a hamburger at the landmark Ski Shores Cafe just minutes from the Greenshores communities.
Greenshores is part of the Austin Independent School District and young students attend Highland Park Elementary School, which is "exemplary" rated by the Texas Education Agency. Older students attend Lamar Middle School and McCallum High School.
