Welcome to the Curbed Austin’s weekly Open House Tour, because who doesn’t love a little real estate gawking?

Open houses can be a cheap source of entertainment as well as information—for most who partake, it’s usually a combination of both. Inspired by the venerable tradition of historic, architectural, and similarly themed neighborhood home tours, our Open House Tours will focus on homes in particular areas of town or that have other traits in common from week to week.

This week, we’re going to Northwest Hills—just the direction one might want to head to avoid a certain music festival that’s in town this weekend.

Here’s a map to make your tour a breeze.

Note: The map is ordered west to east.
