4BR South Congress Area | Local Art, Screened Porch | Walk to SoCo | House in Austin
4 Bedroom House in Bouldin, Austin
South Congress Avenue is a three-block walk from this four-bedroom Bouldin Creek home, and that fact alone closes most bookings. The 78704 zip code puts you in the middle of Austin's most walkable and most distinctly Austin neighborhood — steps from the shops, restaurants, and live music of SoCo, five minutes from Terry Black's Barbecue, and about eight minutes from Barton Springs Pool and Zilker Park. Groups who want to spend a weekend actually living Austin rather than shuttling across it book this house.
The second thing that keeps guests coming back is the house itself. This is a 2,700-square-foot custom build with the design sensibility of an Austin boutique hotel — vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, clerestory windows, large-scale original artwork, murals painted directly on the walls, bold color, and the kind of kitchen that actually fits fourteen people around it. The screened-in porch adds an entirely separate social space that works from the first warm afternoon through late spring evenings.
The group layout is well thought out. Bedroom 1 is on its own with an en-suite bathroom, which gives one couple or one family complete privacy. The remaining bedrooms share bathrooms on the upper level. The great room, kitchen, and screened porch form one continuous entertaining zone. The backyard gives the group a fire pit, a hammock, cornhole, and a gas grill under a live oak canopy.

THE MAIN HOUSE
The front door opens into a great room that signals immediately this is not a generic vacation rental. Eighteen-foot vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams run the length of the space. Clerestory windows line the upper walls and pull natural light deep into the room at every hour of the day. The orange sectional sofas, the turquoise coffee table, and the large-scale local artwork — some of it painted directly onto the walls — give the space an energy that feels specific to Austin in a way that most vacation homes simply do not.
The kitchen anchors the back of the great room and is built for a group. Warm wood cabinetry runs the full length of two walls. The professional-grade range with pot filler sits behind a bold red lacquered backsplash. Three bar stools at the island give the kitchen its own social zone while the cooks are working. A dining table seats six, and a secondary dining area accommodates additional guests so nobody is eating in shifts.
The screened-in porch extends the living space outdoors without the heat or the bugs. Cedar-paneled walls, deep sectional seating, a flat-screen TV, and a dedicated bar area make it function as a true second living room. In the warm months it tends to become the default gathering space from mid-afternoon onward. The backyard behind the house runs under a mature live oak canopy with a fire pit surrounded by Adirondack chairs, a hammock, cornhole, and a gas grill. The upper level of the home has a private deck accessible from the bedrooms.
Bedroom 1 is on the main level with its own en-suite bathroom — a full spa-caliber space with floor-to-ceiling dark mosaic tile, a soaking tub set into the floor, and a multi-head shower. Bedrooms 2, 3, and 4 are on the upper level and share bathrooms. A sleeper sofa in the main living room handles the full 14-guest capacity.
THE OUTDOOR LIVING COMPLEX
The outdoor spaces at this property work together as one continuous zone. The screened-in porch off the main level keeps the group gathered in the shade through warm afternoons and into the evening. The private fenced backyard opens from the porch to a live oak canopy, a fire pit with full Adirondack seating, a hammock, cornhole, and a gas grill. The upper deck off the bedroom level adds a quieter outdoor option for the guests who want to be outside without being in the middle of the action. The whole outdoor setup is private, fenced, and designed for a group.
THE LOCATION
The address puts you in Bouldin Creek, which sits directly between South Congress Avenue and South First Street — Austin's two most character-rich corridors. South Congress is a three-block walk from the front door. The Continental Club, one of Austin's most beloved live music venues, is walkable. Terry Black's Barbecue, one of the most acclaimed BBQ spots in the country, is five minutes by car on Barton Springs Road. Odd Duck on South Lamar is five minutes. Lady Bird Lake and the Hike and Bike Trail are five minutes by car.
Downtown Austin is 5 to 8 minutes by car. Barton Springs Pool and Zilker Park are 8 minutes. The brand-new multi-level SoCo HEB at South Congress and Oltorf is 5 minutes by car and is arguably the finest grocery store in the city. Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is 15 minutes. Circuit of the Americas is 25 minutes.
For groups who want to spend a long weekend in Austin without spending the weekend in a car, this location is the one.
