About garage doors in Bouldin Creek
Bouldin Creek is in South Austin, between South Congress and South Lamar just south of Lady Bird Lake.
Bouldin Creek is one of South Austin’s oldest neighborhoods, with bungalows and cottages from the 1920s to the 1940s. In recent years many lots have been rebuilt with modern homes.
Old houses often have a small detached garage or none. New ones have compact modern garages close to the street, with flush, wood tone or glass doors.

What this means for garage doors in Bouldin Creek
24% of these homes were built in the 1960s and 1970s, so the garage door and opener on any one house could be original, replaced once or replaced several times. That is why we inspect the whole door, springs, cables, rollers, tracks and opener, on every visit. It is also a mixed area: 52% of homes were built before 1980 and 38% since 2000, so an original house and a new rebuild on the same street can need very different doors.
Our recommendation for Bouldin Creek
For new builds in Bouldin Creek, where the garage door is a few feet from the sidewalk, we recommend frosted glass or a solid flush door over clear glass. It keeps the modern look without putting the garage on display.
