Travis Heights – Where is it?
Travis Heights was one of the first “suburbs” of Austin located South of Lake Travis in the 78704 zip code. It is bounded by the Colorado River to the North, Oltorf St. to the South, I-35 to the East and Congress Ave. to the West. Travis Heights is also known as one of the best-positioned areas in South Austin and is one of the most desirable residential neighborhoods in Austin. Much like Hyde Park and most Central Austin neighborhoods, the area is very established with beautiful trees which give the homes and streets a feeling of privacy.

What kind of shopping and restaurants are around Travis Heights?
Travis Heights is located within walking distance to the SoCo area which is known for hip cafes, bars and eclectic shops. Some popular faves are Gueros for good ole Mexican food, fun and margaritas. And don’t forget Magnolia Cafe for all day, all night late night munchies. Another fun experience is First Thursdays of every month. Local merchants keep their doors open until 10pm for late night shopping and spirits. If in the need for a nearby HEB or Home Depot, you’ll be just a short drive or bike ride away.
