Jewel Box on South Congress - Austin

Soak up the serene ambience of this unique home, just a half block off lively South Congress. This 1930 home features original tongue-and-groove walls, a clawfoot tub, and a pressed tin ceiling in the renovated kitchen.

The house is steps from the best of Austin’s shopping and dining - the Kendra Scott flagship, Big Top Candy Shop, Vespaio, Home Slice, Guero’s, Perla’s, Nike, Amy’s Ice Cream…to name a few! And yet the home and back deck are quiet and peaceful.

Originally built in 1930, this charming "Old Austin" home features hand-scraped walnut wooden floors, ten foot ceilings, and original tongue-and-groove walls. This home is a serene oasis from the bustle of the city just steps away.

The front porch welcomes you with two chairs, the perfect spot to relax and people watch.

In the living room, a sleeper sofa and plush armchairs are the perfect spot to enjoy a movie on the 37" flat screen. The smart TV is equipped with complimentary Netflix and local channels.

The home has two bedrooms, each equipped with a queen-sized bed, clean white linens and a chest of drawers. The sleeper sofa in the living room offers additional sleeping space for two.

The classic bathroom has a clawfoot tub configured with a shower surround.

For those wanting a break from the area's amazing restaurant scene, the kitchen is fully equipped. The kitchen is outfitted with butcher block countertops, a French door fridge and a Wolf six-burner range and oven.

Savor your meal under the dining room's elegant yet fun crystal chandelier.

Or dine al fresco on the breezy back deck. The lusciously green backyard also features a pleasant stone patio in the back corner.

The entire property is available to guests.  The driveway accommodates two guest vehicles.

The home is located in tree-lined Bouldin Creek, between iconic South Congress and South 1st. Classic Austin spots are steps away: the Continental Club, Home Slice, Elizabeth Street Cafe, Jo's Coffee, Lady Bird Lake, and Barton Springs.
