Description

There’s something about a Bouldin Creek cottage that feels inherently Austin—unpretentious, soulful, quietly cool.

Tucked along Milton Street, just 1.5 blocks from South Congress, this 1948 bungalow captures the spirit of post-war Austin—efficient, thoughtful, and close to the city’s core.

1 bed. 1 bath. Exactly enough.

Updated flooring adds warmth throughout, while curated upgrades include quartz counters, penny tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a subway-tiled bath. Shiplap accents nod to its cottage roots without feeling overdone.

Natural light fills the home through new windows. The spacious kitchen flows into two living areas, including a second lounge with built-in daybed—ideal for guests or relaxed weekends.

Key updates:
Tankless water heater (2021), washer/dryer (2024), toilet (2025), HVAC (2017, regularly serviced), gutters (2023), interior paint (2026).

Outside, xeriscaping and refreshed landscaping create a low-maintenance, water-wise setting. A modern privacy fence encloses the yard, while the covered side deck extends living outdoors year-round.

Less than a mile to downtown, with easy access to dining, coffee, live music, and Lady Bird Lake...offering proximity without the chaos.

Bouldin Creek endures for homes like this. Authentic post-war cottages are increasingly rare and when this close to SoCo, they become part of Austin’s architectural story.
