A seven-minute drive south of Downtown Austin, across the rolling Colorado River, you’ll hit this charming townhouse in Bouldin Creek. This neighbourhood has quite a different character from the shiny heights of Downtown, with an interesting array of historic 1920s homes as well as Victorian mansions. A ten-minute walk from the Greetings From Austin Mural, you’ll also be greeted by a whole host of tasty food spots, cafés, and Mexican bakeries en route. Inside, we love the tall windows and French doors bringing plenty of southern sunshine into this home. Rustic features like a brick fireplace, rich wooden floors, and an antique-style coffee table make the living space feel warm and cosy. In contrast, you’ll also notice modern, industrial elements like black metal chair frames and standing lamps. We love how this decor describes Austin so well – traditional southern hospitality meets a cool, hip, and modern metropolis. You’ve got a private balcony plus a courtyard where you can sit out with an iced tea, but you might want to explore a bigger green space. Take a twenty-minute walk to see the city from Doug Sahm Hill Summit, through the enormous Butler Metro Park.
