This Bouldin bungalow is a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage that serves as a piece of South Austin history, offering the walkable lifestyle that defines the area just a short stroll from the local cafes and coffee spots along South 1st Street. There is a palpable warmth here that only comes from a home being held and meticulously maintained by the same family for decades. It carries a sense of character and longevity that stands out among the newer builds in the 78704 zip code. The interior of this Bouldin home is centered around gorgeous original long-leaf pine floors. These wood floors have been beautifully preserved and stretch through a living room filled with natural light and traditional crown molding. The layout is easy and open, flowing into the dining area and a kitchen that feels deeply connected to the backyard thanks to a wall of windows. The kitchen features a gas range and a view of the backyard. The two bedrooms are surprisingly oversized, each offering long leaf pine flooring. The bathroom adds a lovely touch to the home's charm with its marble and subway tile finishes. The backyard is where this Bouldin property truly comes alive, featuring an ancient tree that provides a deep canopy of shade over a lush grassy lawn. It is a quiet, private world that feels tucked away, especially since the yard is angled to maintain a sense of seclusion from the nearby commercial spots. Between the covered back patio, the xeriscaped landscaping, and the wide-open garden space, there is so much room to host friends or just enjoy a quiet evening in the shade. Living in Bouldin puts you in the middle of everything, only minutes from the skyline of Downtown Austin and a quick walk to the music and boutique shopping on South Congress. With the 2010 renovations providing a solid foundation and quick access to I-35 making any commute easy, this home is ready for its next chapter.
