About this house rental

Enjoy the ultimate Austin experience in a luxurious historic home just a short walk from the most iconic Downtown bars and restaurants! Listed in the National Register of Historic Places, recently renovated by a top local designer, and with a brand new heated pool, this space offers the comfort of home and the experience of a fine hotel - with a Texas twist.

Whether you're looking to explore Austin landmarks like the University of Texas' Forty Acres, attend a world-famous event like Austin City Limits (ACL) Music Festival, or just enjoy a night out on the town, you'll enjoy incredibly short commutes back to this expansive home at the end of a long day.

The spacious main floor of this open-layout home is perfectly suited for entertaining. Plenty of natural light fills the shared living space, gourmet kitchen, and dining area. Curl up with a good book on the comfortable couches or enjoy your favorite film on the flat screen TV. Home chefs will enjoy whipping up a memorable meal in the gourmet kitchen - which has plenty of additional seating for spectators and sous-chefs! A formal dining area for eight is just steps away when you're ready to serve. The main floor also features an eye-catching guest bathroom with a walk-in shower and a small sitting room (great for families or business travelers seeking additional privacy).

Upstairs, you can take in an eclectic art collection inspired by the legendary Lone Star State. A second full living area is fitted with a flat screen TV and a comfortable, high-end sofa bed that sleeps two. Bedroom One is fitted with a Queen bed and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. Bedroom Two is fitted with an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower and (1) King bed. Bedroom Three houses a single Full bed and an ensuite bathroom with a shower/tub combo.

Head back to the main floor and down a second set of stairs for the remaining two guest bedrooms. Bedroom Four is fitted with (2) Queen beds and a small sitting area with a gorgeous jewel-toned chaise lounge. Bedroom Five is also fitted with (2) Queen beds. 

Every detail of this designer home has been thoughtfully planned out for the ultimate guest experience. But it's best feature? The location! After a long day or evening exploring the city, you'll appreciate the ability to walk home from Downtown Austin and enjoy the sparkling pool - which can be heated to 85 degrees for an additional fee of $175/day (plus tax)!

We rented this house so we could gather with family to celebrate my MIL's 80th birthday. It was absolutely perfect for all of us. We especially loved the open kitchen/family room and the pool and patio. Would highly recommend this property for any large group.

The house is a historic house in a great location near downtown Austin. Really enjoyed our stay here. The house was very clean however, there are a few small things that need to be fixed. The microwave makes it really loud noise that sounds like it needs to be fixed. One of the guest said that the dishwasher leaked water. There’s an area on the main floor where the wood is breaking through. The house is extremely noisy, Poor sound insulation. The bedroom where I slept could use a dresser or somewhere to put my clothes and personal items. saying that, overall, I would stay here again. Hopefully they will upgrade the house by taking care of some of therse small issues.

Overall, really enjoyed this property. Perfect for large families or groups. Only negative was traffic noise as it backs up to a fairly busy thoroughfare. Good proximity to both UT and S. Congress shopping - easy to get around w/ Uber/Lift. Interiors are very nicely appointed.
