About this property

Austin Glass House-As Seen on TV and Two Movies

Immerse yourself in nature at the Austin Glass House. This special home away from home, close to all Austin has to offer, is nonetheless a private hideaway. The verdant property is nestled alongside a spring-fed creek and tree-lined greenbelt that offers access to the beauty of the Hill Country. Featured in the movie Abilene and on HGTV, the one-of-a-kind Austin Glass House is a perfect retreat for couples seeking a romantic escape or those looking for a relaxing getaway.

This architecturally-acclaimed glass-and-steel house is defined by towering 30-foot windows that provide a 360-degree integration with the outdoors. The upstairs bedroom features three decks and an in-room coffee cart is perfect for enjoying your morning brew while watching the sun rise over the wooded canyon below. The spacious downstairs bedroom boasts an open-air shower with three ceiling-mounted shower heads, an oversized jetted tub for two, and glass walls that bring the outdoors inside. Spend time on the peaceful patio, snooze on a hammock, sit by the chimenea, or take a hike on the shady Indian Creek Trail, which offers views of fern-lined grottos and crystal-clear water.

The Austin Glass House is just 30 minutes from downtown Austin and minutes from popular Lake Austin and Lake Travis. Nearby Lakeway offers breweries, wineries, distilleries, fine dining, and other amenities.

Other Details To Note-

The driveway is steep and must be driven down slowly. Follow the arrows to park close to the steps to the house. If you don't feel comfortable driving down the driveway you may park at the top in the designated parking area and walk down steps. Four cars can fit at the lower level. The house also has interior steps that should be considered if mobility is an issue. For guests with young children please note that there are interior steps as soon as you walk into the house to get downstairs to the living and kitchen area. We do not have baby gates.

We treat for pest on a regular basis however we are surrounded by nature and occasionally you might see a bug in the house.
