Heated Pool Oasis, Luxe Amenities, Prime Location, Chefs Kitchen, Skyline Views
Named by Conde Nast Traveler as one of Austin's Top 10 Vacation Rental Homes in Austin in 2026!
Designed by one of Austin’s most celebrated modern architects, the home unfolds across three thoughtfully crafted floors — each with its own personality and purpose.
The sun-drenched first floor is anchored by an open-concept kitchen, living, and dining space where floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, opening directly onto your private heated pool. Come cooler months, it converts to a hot tub — no excuses to ever leave. The chef’s kitchen is genuinely stocked: custom walnut cabinetry, integrated refrigerator, wine fridge, top-of-the-line Thermador appliances, and a coffee bar. A 12-foot marble waterfall island seats six, the expandable dining table seats ten, and there’s enough cookware and serving ware to pull off a dinner party without a second thought. Spill out back to a shaded courtyard with lounge seating and a fire table — ideal for a nightcap. A reading nook stocked with modern board games and Austin travel guides rounds out the floor.
Up the sculptural hanging steel staircase — lined with original local art — the second floor houses the oversized master suite, a guest bedroom with queen bed and private bath, and a fully stocked laundry room. The master is genuinely special: king bed, a dedicated workspace, and a spa bathroom that earned a Top 10 Bathrooms of 2021 nod from Houzz. The centerpiece is a two-person soaking tub positioned beneath a two-story vaulted skylight — built for late-night stargazing without leaving the bath.
The third floor surprises. A spacious guest bedroom tucks queen and twin bunk beds into the gable of the modern farmhouse roofline, alongside a fourth bathroom and a music corner with keyboard. A bright loft with double bed sits under its own skylight, wrapped in windows with 180-degree views over the tree canopy. Step outside to the rooftop deck for unobstructed downtown skyline views — including front-row seats to Austin’s Fourth of July and New Year’s Eve fireworks.
The Neighborhood
Bouldin Creek is one of Austin’s most coveted pockets — full of original character, world-class modern architecture, and a famously free-roaming flock of peacocks. You’re half a block from Ricky Guerrero Park (splash pad, large playground) and the local city library, and a 5-minute ride from everything South Austin offers: ACL and SXSW festival grounds, acclaimed restaurants, and the kind of streets that make Austin, Austin.
Good to Know
∙ Heated pool/hot tub: Available in cooler months (generally October to April) for a flat $100 fee (covers up to 4 days). Just give 24 hours notice. Please note there is not a separate pool and hot tub. The pool converts to a hot tube when it's cooler. ∙ Whole-home audio: Sonos throughout — one playlist, every room. ∙ Entertaining extras: Additional tables and chairs available in the garage for larger gatherings. ∙ Parking: Two vehicles fit in the driveway, with plenty of free street parking beyond that. ∙ No parties: Please note that we abide by City of Austin rules banning parties at short-term rentals. We kindly ask that there are no outdoor activities including pool use or music from 10:30 p.m. to 7 a.m. Noise complaints and violation of no-parties rule could result in cancellation of reservation with no refund. ∙ Air Mattresses: The house has 3 twin bed air mattresses that are available for groups who don't wish share beds. However, please note the maximum number of guests is still 10 guests. ∙ Construction Noise: Austin is a boomtown and the area around our home is experiencing tremendous growth, meaning there is an ever-growing number of older homes being knocked down and replaced my multi-million dollar homes. There are currently several new homes being built on the same block so some construction noise is always possible.

About the host
Hosted by David
A Texas native who spent a decade in Chicago and New York before finding his way back to the motherland. I’ve called Austin home for eight years now, and in 2020 I built this house as my dream home — every detail chosen with intention.
These days I’m in the early chapters of retirement and spending more time traveling, which means this home gets to be enjoyed by people who appreciate it as much as I do. That part I love.
Why they chose this property
When I was searching for the right property, I wanted something that felt like a genuine neighborhood — not just a convenient address. Bouldin Creek delivered exactly that.
It’s the rare pocket of Austin that manages to feel both tucked away and completely connected. Tree-lined streets, original Austin charm, and a famously free-roaming flock of peacocks on one side — and some of the city’s best restaurants, bars, and cultural destinations practically at your doorstep on the other. Walk two blocks to Green Pastures, bike to Zilker Park, or stroll to South Congress and South First without ever touching a car.
For me, it was the perfect balance of city energy and neighborhood calm. Eight years later, I still feel that way every time I come home.
What makes this property unique
A lot of Austin rentals promise a great stay. This one was built to be one.
Designed by one of Austin’s most celebrated modern architects and two years in the making, this home was conceived as a personal dream — not a rental investment — and that distinction shows in every detail. From the custom walnut chef’s kitchen that opens directly onto the heated pool, to the master spa bathroom named one of Houzz’s Top 10 Bathrooms of 2021, to the rooftop deck with unobstructed downtown skyline views, the home consistently delivers experiences that feel genuinely elevated rather than simply well-furnished.
Light was treated as a design element throughout. Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors blur the line between indoors and out during the day, while skylights and panoramic windows frame the stars at night — including from the two-person soaking tub in the master bath, which might be the single most memorable feature in the house.
Then there’s the location. Bouldin Creek is one of Austin’s most coveted neighborhoods — walkable, characterful, and two blocks from Green Pastures, one of the city’s most celebrated event venues. Festival grounds, Zilker Park, Lady Bird Lake, South Congress, and downtown are all within easy reach on foot or bike.
Most rentals ask you to make do. This one was designed to impress.
