Early Commitment Has Its Rewards: A Founding Resident’s Perspective on Life at The Belvedere

When longtime Austinite Sherry Smith began thinking about leaving the home she and her husband built in the western hills, she expected the journey to feel overwhelming. Instead, discovering The Belvedere—a boutique condominium community rising quietly in Old West Austin—felt, in her words, like “one of the best-kept secrets in Austin.

After touring other parts of the city, it was an article about The Belvedere that caught her attention.

I thought, whoa… I need to look at this place.

What she found was a rare mix of natural serenity, neighborhood authenticity, and resort-style ease—all minutes from downtown, yet worlds away from the pace of a high-rise corridor.

A Location That Feels Like Home—Not a High-Rise

For Sherry, the difference was immediate.

The biggest plus about this location is we’re close to downtown, but we’re not downtown. It’s a neighborhood—an established neighborhood—and yet new things are happening.

The Belvedere’s setting—surrounded by mature trees with direct access to the Butler Hike & Bike Trail—delivers the quiet comfort of a private retreat rather than a dense urban tower. Nestled in one of Austin’s most beloved neighborhoods, it offers a rare opportunity for those searching for luxury condos Austin or refined residences for sale in Clarksville. Its architecture is warm and residential—“not a glass box,” as Sherry describes it—woven naturally into the charm of Old West Austin.

Resort-Style Living, Designed for Everyday Ease

What surprised Sherry most was how effortless life at The Belvedere promises to feel.

The thing I love most about our unit is that we overlook the pool. I feel like I’m going to be on vacation living here, having many spaces to go to aside from our space.

With amenities that include a resort-style pool, a wellness suite, thoughtfully designed gathering lounges, guest accommodations, and immediate trail access, The Belvedere was built around ease. It’s an ideal option for Austinites seeking the comfort of lock-and-leave living without sacrificing proximity or lifestyle.

For us it’s perfect timing. We’ll be able to do everything we need to do in an unhurried timeframe.
