About this property

Top Rated Oasis in Prime South Congress Location and Close to Downtown

Large (1,100 sq ft) casita in the heart of Austin. Perfect South First location for Austin traveler/vacationer in Bouldin Creek district. Enjoy an oasis of calm right in the middle of all the action -- just a 10 minute walk to bustling South Congress and a quick drive/leisurely stroll to all that Downtown offers. Some of Austin's top restaurants, including Lenoir, Mattie's at Green Pastures, and Winebelly are only a few blocks away!

Updated luxurious accommodations including a brand new queen-sized mattress.

More details about the space:

This is a spacious, 1,100 sq. ft, casita/guesthouse (comparable listings are generally half the square footage) where you can relax in peace or walk to most everything Austin has to offer.

To access, from the carport you'll enter via the gate and walk through the beautiful outdoor patio, where a shady tree grows up from the deck floorboards. Outdoor furniture offers seating for 12; deck is shared with the main house. Step through the expansive screened-in porch, and make your way into the casita.

Fully equipped kitchen and island with bar seating are open to the living room, complete with 40” flatscreen with DirecTV. In the kitchen, there's plenty of work space to cook a big meal or to assemble a picnic for a trek to Barton Springs. Accommodations also include a comfy, queen-sized sleeper sofa, large windows throughout, and a laundry area with washer and dryer.

Sizable master bedroom is located upstairs in the loft and features a luxe queen-size bed along with cool decor below a vaulted ceiling. Plenty of natural light, walk-in closet, and enough space for a blow-up mattress. Clean and elegant en suite bath has a stand-up rain shower.

Please Note: The second bed is a sofa bed located in the living room downstairs.

About the host

Hosted by Jeremy B.

Host profile image
I've lived in Austin for 14 years and love it to death. My wife and I met in grad school at UT and recently welcomed our beautiful baby girl, Jane.

My wife and I (and now daughter) are avid travelers and hit the road whenever possible. Recent destinations include Iceland, New Zealand, South Africa, Australia, Brazil and Argentina.

I look forward to sharing my place and my wonderful city.

Why they chose this property

If you are looking to "live like a local" there is no better area to experience this, in my opinion, than our property. Located in a very quiet neighborhood, but literally steps from the bustling restaurant/shopping districts of South 1st and South Congress (SOCO). In addition, downtown is only a 1.5 mile walk or a $6 UBER ride so you have easy access there as well. In other words, in the middle of everything that you could want to explore on your stay.

What makes this property unique

My wife, daughter and I live on the property and there is a breezeway that connects to the Casita/guesthouse from the back porch. We are there to serve as resource, but you will have total and complete privacy in a remarkable home.

There are few 1 bedroom, 1.5 bath places in Austin which fit the following characteristics: large (1,100 sq ft.), multi-storied, modern, and luxurious. There are hardwood floors throughout, a second story loft style bedroom with a large bathroom and rain shower, a full kitchen, and washer/dryer. All the comforts of home away from home. In addition, there is a high end sofa bed for guests wanting an extra bed (guesthouse comfortably fits 4). Please read our reviews... the guest love our place and many return!
