Barrington Oaks in Northwest Austin is an older neighborhood of 653 homes built in eight sections in the mid-1970s to the early 1980s.

Home sizes range from just over 1300 square feet to 2800 square feet with the average home having just under 1800 square feet of living space. A typical lot is just under a quarter of an acre and is mostly flat, which allows for a nice sized yard both front and back. The entire area has many mature trees. Many are still owned by the original homeowners.
