A vintage home in South Austin’s much-coveted Bouldin Creek neighborhood, this 1925 house is blessedly nestled on a stretch of street that hasn’t been overcome by lot-filling new builds.

The vaguely Craftsman-style home has been updated with features including recessed and modern pendant lights, stainless-steel appliances, and contemporary kitchen cabinets and counters. It retains its essentially vintage feel, however, due to its hardwood floors, high ceilings, fireplace, clawfoot tub, and peeks of original materials, such as an exposed brick column in the kitchen.

The one-story, wood-frame home measures 1,236 square feet and has two bedrooms and one bathroom, as well as two living rooms—one with a formal dining area. It’s on a large lot and has a fenced backyard with alley access and a storage building. It’s listed with Crystal Lopez at Redfin.
