About this property
Writer's Retreat: Think and rest in nature in the middle of Austin.
It's rare to find a place that's both historic and one-of-a-kind. We rebuilt parts of the original home into a small one bedroom, one bath home and repurposed the well house into a dreamy writing workspace for writing. Two separate structures separate work space and rest space. But the work space includes a massage chair for breaks and a kitchenette.
