$1,649,000 - 702 W Mary Street, Austin

She’s Got History, Swagger, and a South Congress Zip Code! There are houses—and then there are homes with presence. 702 W Mary Street is the kind of place that doesn’t just sit pretty on a street in Bouldin Creek. She turns heads. She holds her ground. And she knows exactly who she is. Expertly renovated down to the studs, this single-story 3BD | 2.5BA residence pairs early 20th-century character with modern craftsmanship in all the right ways. Think original longleaf pine floors and shiplap walls, balanced by a Wolf cooktop, designer finishes, a whole-house reverse osmosis water system, and updated infrastructure throughout—including gated parking, updated electrical, and radiant barrier insulation. Outside, a private 0.16-acre lot invites slower mornings and laid-back evenings. A cedar deck for al fresco dinners. Native landscaping. Automatic sliding gates at both the front and the alley. It’s as thoughtful as it is stylish. And the lifestyle? That’s the real headline. Living here means walking to Jo’s Coffee, people-watching on South Congress, biking the lake trail, and knowing your neighborhood by name, not just vibe. This is Bouldin Creek: Austin’s creative core, where historic bungalows, architectural one-offs, and bold personalities live side by side. It’s less about trends, more about authenticity. If you’re looking for something generic, swipe left. But if you’re after a home with soul, swagger, and substance, you just found her!
