    What's special

    Two bedrooms
    This one lives in the sweet spot of South Austin, just off South Lamar in the Bouldin Creek area. Two bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a layout that opens the living space up instead of chopping it into small rooms. The backyard is the standout here, big enough for a real hangout space! Location is top notch. You're a few minutes from downtown, walking distance to the restaurants and bars along South Lamar and South First, and close to Zilker Park and Lady Bird Lake for the days you want to be outside instead of in traffic.
