About this property

Style, Simplicity, Serenity - Steps away from South Congress

Welcome to our newly renovated South Congress Hideaway in the heart of the city! Live like a local in this spacious home (1400 sq. feet) tucked away on one of the most desirable tree-lined streets of Travis Heights. The location offers an urban escape just a short walk (less than 5 minutes) from the bustling boutiques, coffee shops, bars, and restaurants of Austin's iconic South Congress.

This stunning space is part of a single-family historic home/duplex curated with chic-appointed designer furnishings and basking in natural light and styled comfort. The home and adjoining deck are for guests only, ensuring a private and exclusive experience.

Upon entering, you'll be greeted by the charming ambiance of black wood beams that line the ceiling in this expansive TV/living room area. After a day of exploring the city, unwind in the comfort of luxury leather furnishings, complete with a 65-inch smart TV for your entertainment needs.
Stay connected with high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the home.

Down four steps, a sunlit second seating area is perfect for reading or enjoying a glass of wine. The dining room is laced with natural light and a table large enough to entertain six guests. Bright windows offer views of one of two protected Live Oak trees on the property. There's nothing like a touch of nature in such a sophisticated landscape.

When you're not enjoying Austin's famous food and music scene, the fully equipped kitchen features a full-size gas stove, oven, and a deep sink, making meal preparation a breeze. For your convenience, the kitchen has a dishwasher and in-unit washer and dryer, ensuring a hassle-free stay. Enjoy your morning coffee in the in-kitchen seating area or on your private deck just off the kitchen.

The two bedrooms offer queen-sized beds with plush mattresses, offering a sanctuary-style sleeping experience. Bedrooms are quite separated from each other, ensuring guests their privacy and space. Both rooms have ample closets with hangers allowing you to 'unpack and stay awhile.' One bedroom has a remote working space with an oversized marble desk for ease and convenience of spreading out your work. The bathroom boasts a bathtub and shower with consistently strong water pressure, ensuring a rejuvenating experience.

For those looking for more nature, Little Stacy Park is a 3-minute walk and opens up to Big Stacy Park. It's the perfect destination to get your steps in or play tennis and pickleball on the nearby courts. For more adventure, Lady Bird Lake and its 10-mile walking trail is about a 5-minute walk and connects you to Barton Creek and Zilker Park. Downtown is just over the South Congress bridge along with University of Texas, and even more bars and restaurants and food trucks along 6th and Rainey Streets.

We invite you to experience modern tranquility and convenience in our beautifully appointed home. Whether you're visiting for business or pleasure, our space offers a welcoming and comfortable retreat amidst the vibrancy of the city.

Things to note:
- Unit A is occupied full time. Please do not disturb the occupants.
- Unit B’s entry is located down the steps on the right side of the house. Please use this as the primary entrance to the home.
- Please use kitchen door inside Unit B to access Unit B’s deck.
- Free parking is available in the large driveway and on the street. Please be aware that there is a berm at the beginning of the driveway that will damage low-profile cars. Driveway parking is best suited for SUVs and or Trucks.

Amazing location, adorable place, needs work, too pricey
Pros: 1 )I truly enjoyed going for a run in the morning and letting coffee on SoCo. Place was surprisingly quiet. 2) Kitchen very well stocked including almost full spice rack! 3) Beautiful porch space. Cons: 1) SHODDY WORKMANSHIP: This was a BIG problem in this place. Stair railing came off in my hand and I almost fell down stairs backwards. I’m a very petite person and definitely did not give excessive force. Railing was placed into drywall with only a drywall anchor. Shelving brace in closet not attached to wall. Door handle in bedroom poorly installed. Jiggled and accidentally locked 2) Toilet strangely very tall. Even 6ft tall husband was on tippy toes when seated. My feet literally dangled. Had to fashion a step out of our luggage in order to sit with feet touching ground. 3) 3 flights of stairs: Could be a limitation for others 4) Shared property: Property is converted basement. Photo and website vague about this. Upstairs tenants very quiet and respectful. Never saw them. 5) Says 4 parking spaces but only 3 and 2 were taken by upstairs tenants. 6) Outdoor sensor light plus opossums equals no sleep. 7) Basement is moist and smells when AC not constantly running with all doors open. 8) Complained about these issues right away with service who told us they’d “let them know”. We were never contacted back. For this problem alone, would not stay here again. No communication for an entire week is unacceptable.
