A cedar barrel sauna in the garden, a bamboo-screened hot tub open to the sky, and a rooftop deck where Austin's skyline sharpens as the sun drops – this Bouldin house is built around outdoor living in a way few city homes can match. Inside, the glass-wrapped living room is calm and light-filled, while a spa-style bathroom opens to the treetops for something closer to a retreat experience. When you do venture out, Zilker Park is a twenty-eight-minute walk and Barton Springs Pool is reachable on foot in thirty-four minutes.
