Remodeled Historic Home w/ Pool - Mins to Downtown

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 HOME

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)!

40th Birthday

The house is actually bigger that what the pictures show, and I feel like that never happens with an online listing. The style and decor throughout the house feels like a super swanky, boutique hotel. We comfortably slept 16 friends and family members. The main floor living room/kitchen was the perfect hang space at the end of a night out. The only drawback is there's only 1 bathroom on the main floor that is supposed to service the 8 people that sleep in the basement. All the upstairs rooms have their own bathrooms. We ended up sharing showers which was fine, but an additional bathroom in the basement would've been the best fix. The pool area is fantastic, but the water was pretty icy. I'm sure the trees in the back are clutch during the hot summer to block out some of the sun, but in April, the mix of little sun and icy pool kept us from fully enjoying. The location worked out well for us. You can walk to a few bars, restaurants and liquor stores. We ended up catching Ubers everywhere else. This house (like many VRBO/AirB&B) charges the typical high priced cleaning fee, but then also demands you to wash towels, do dishes, take out the trash, etc. Overall, I'd 100% book this place again. It was perfect home base to celebrate and take in Austin.

Comfortable stay!

This Vrbo was perfect for a group of 12. Very beautiful setup and the living room/kitchen area was even more spacious in person. Host was quick to respond to any questions. The patio area is perfect to sit and soak up the sunshine. Bathrooms were all clean and well-stocked with towels and other provided amenities. House is also only a 15-min or less drive to other popular places in the city, and in walking distance to some coffee and food spots. The group enjoyed their stay.

ACL Weekend

We were a group of 9 High School Seniors and 4 moms staying at the house for the second ACL Weekend. The house was great and when we asked about more blankets, towels and a colander, the property manager had them delivered to us. We used the kitchen a little bit with easy food preparation and breakfast.

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.

Beautiful house and a great location, needs a few things fixed

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.

Gorgeous house and is close to all the action. The only downside is the rooms on the bottom floor don’t have a bathroom; you have to go to first floor. The house is newly remodeled, beds are comfortable and it’s overall a great place!

Best Weekend Ever!!!

Truly can't explain how wonderful this weekend away in Austin was, and this rental was one of the best parts! The home was absolutely gorgeous and in such a safe part of town. The beds were comfy which is always a plus and there was plenty of room and space for the 10 of us who stayed there. Not to mention the brand-new pool they had put in this year was clutch because it was over 100 degrees every day. When we did run into any issues or problems with the property, the property manager was very responsive which was greatly appreciated. There were a few minor issues but nothing that was enough to take away from the experience!! Overall 20/10 stay and would love to come back and stay again. Book this place, you won't regret it!

Loved it!

My friends and I stayed here and enjoyed it very much! It was close to downtown so Ubers weren’t too expensive. The only issue we had was the A/C was going out throughout the weekend but they were very responsive in having people come by to fix it. The pool was an amazing addition especially for the summer heat in Austin. Would recommend staying here!

A few colleagues and I needing a weekend together to just hang out and visit. This was the perfect place close to a great spa, good restaurants, a park, and an open living room and kitchen. Very comfortable with what you need. We ate at the large table, played cards on the coffee table and watched a movie together. Great night’s sleep. We will be back.
