About this property

Charming, Historical Home, Walk to Downtown- Eastside Nightlife!

Cozy and unique. The Holly neighborhood is dubbed by Time Out magazine "coolest neighborhood in the world," in the heart of East Austin! This home is 1 mi from the center of downtown, in the middle of the creative, Eastside action. You will be in the midst of foodie heaven, live music, and art studios. My guidebook is filled with local info of the best places locals go, you will not find this info in a travel guide. W-fi is fast, AC is cold. Experience historic East Austin!

The home is a historic part of East Austin history, built in 1910. Relax and visit on the welcoming front porch with a porch swing and rocking chair to comfortably lounge and watch the Eastside action.
