A perfect refuge amidst the beautiful cityscape.
14' high ceilings and original wood flooring create a bright & spacious feel. The transitional bathroom design ties beautifully into this historic house. Encased in Carrara marble & heated floors, the soaking tub and rain shower make it a spa like experience. 2 spacious bedrooms have floor to ceiling closets & cabinetry to provide ample storage. The tall living room windows accompany the high ceilings to provide a perfect amount of natural light & ambience. The kitchen offers an incredible amount of cook space and storage with massive OG pine countertops and custom cabinets all the way to the ceiling.
Whether a happy hour get together or family s'mores around the custom built fire pit…the gigantic backyard deck is perfect for any type of soiree.

Being in middle of it all made it a highly profitable STR for 8yrs. ACL fests, SXSW, Formula One, downtown. 78704 - the coveted zip code. Live and love it. This is the quintessential Austin home.
