Jollyville, TX

180 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Located in North Austin, Jollyville has grown from a small community of 20 families in 1960 to a census-designated place with 16,151 people currently calling the area home. That is quite a population boom within a relatively short period of time! Part of the reason for the surge is because of its close proximity to Austin, TX (about 20 miles to the southeast). Nestled in the hill country of Travis and Williamson counties, Jollyville is filled with spruce, cedar and juniper trees that give the area a gorgeous scent as well as that rugged look Texas is known for. Jollyville is a haven for everyone seeking to live the hill country lifestyle. It feels secluded but has everything you need or want close by. You are far enough away from the lights of of Austin to actually enjoy the canopy of the Milky Way on a clear night, which is really just visually stunning if you haven't witnessed it! Heck, even if you have it is still a kicker to the happy bone every time! See more

Balconies are a coveted amenity for many renters looking for high-rise views and opportunities for fresh air. However, you should keep in mind that balconies often come with restrictions.

Before signing a lease, ask about how many people can be on the balcony at once. Also, ask about whether you’re allowed to store a bike or other items.

You’ll also want to know about any maintenance schedules. Using your balcony as storage could result in fines and intervention from your property management.

Keep in mind that not all balconies are created equally. You may discover the views of the parking area are less than optimal or reduce your overall privacy.

Balconies can also get messy with debris, foliage, dirt, and pollen depending on your location. Renters are typically responsible for any clean-up and basic balcony upkeep.

Regardless of the issues to keep in mind, balconies are usually a big win for Jollyville renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
