Mins to Downtown + SxSW - Historic Home with Pool!

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.

SXSW 2025 - This vacation rental makes the perfect home base for the South by Southwest (SXSW) conference! Located just minutes from many event venues. You’ll enjoy short commutes no matter where you’re heading! We recommend exploring ride-share, e-scooter, and public transportation options to avoid parking issues as traffic increases significantly around this event.

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.

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!
