Demolition Proposed for that handsome 167 year old farmhouse on Bull Creek Road
The City of Austin Property Profile tool shows a Demolition Permit in review for 4720 Bull Creek Road, between 45th St. & Hancock Dr. It’s the McCary-Theil house. Apparently the house was built by rancher James D. McCary in 1859 and until recently was the fellowship hall for the Highland Village Church of Christ. Note that there is no site plan permit, only a demolition permit. It’s zoned as single family residential so I guess needs a zoning change to do more than build a house. With such a big lot, almost 3 acres, seems like it could be developed easily enough without demolishing the historic house.
