WHAT TO EXPECT LIVING IN TRAVIS HEIGHTS

Travis Heights is quiet in a way that surprises people, given what surrounds it. Mature trees canopy leafy residential streets a few blocks from South Congress.

Because the neighborhood climbs a hill south of the lake, some streets deliver true skyline views. The architecture is part of the appeal: Victorian-era homes, Craftsman bungalows, mid-century moderns, and new construction sit side by side, giving the neighborhood the historic-meets-eclectic character 78704 is known for. Community identity here is strong, and demand shows it. This is one of South Austin’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
