Upon check-in you'll receive your own keyless security code to let you into your new home away from home. The main bedroom is furnished with a queen bed. The second bedroom has a twin daybed and a second twin bed. That same space is shared with the dinning table and chairs. There's a full size kitchen, a large living room, and laundry. The 10 foot ceilings and large windows make the home feel even larger than it is. This historic home was completely remodeled in 2010, includes three completely separate residences, and still has its old character and charm from 1915. There's a large fully fenced back yard with a patio set perfect for a relaxing afternoon.

The high speed internet (1 Gbps down and 1 Gbps up) connection and wifi are provided by Google Fiber, which is one of the best, fastest, and most stable internet providers in Austin. Google TV / Youtube TV provides one of the most up to date technologies for the best digital TV available.

Location is everything. Stay in one of the most trendy and historic neighborhoods in Austin. The location is ideal for families or anyone that would like to be close to all of the attractions that Austin has to offer, but also a quiet, relaxing, and safe neighborhood and home to come back to after exploring.

Walk a few blocks and you can have breakfast or coffee at one of the best bakeries in Austin, shop at a local grocery store, have lunch at several restaurants, view the many early 1900 Victorian homes, or an afternoon snack at a local sandwich shop that's been open since 1909. If you want to travel somewhere farther away in Austin, the bus route is on the next street. Hop right onto the bus and go anywhere for $1. If you need any recommendations on places to eat or see in Austin, we are more than happy to help any time.

    This was a great property in the north of Austin, but very close to downtown. There were restaurants close and it was easy to get further away. The most surprising thing was how quiet it was. The neighborhood was so quiet it was hard to believe I was in a city. The house was clean and nice with everything I needed for a pleasant stay.

    The property is in a quiet neighbourhood close to the northern end of the UT campus, ideal for visiting parents. The staircase to the main bedroom is narrow and a little steep, so not too suitable for very young or old, but otherwise fine. Definitely would recommend visiting Quack's bakery a short walk away. Parking outside the property is fine. As visitors from outside the US we had lots of problems with parking apps in Austin not working with our non-US phones (both android and apple). But the property is close enough for taxis/ubers/weymos to be affordable.

    The home is situated in a beautiful neighbourhood which is close to the university and minutes from downtown. The property is clean an roomy. Pete responded promptly when there was a problem with the lock. We would definitely book with him again.

    This house was ideal for our family of four during our five-day stay in Austin. We loved the quiet, residential neighborhood and the proximity to excellent restaurants and cafes. It was easy to get to the University and downtown. Pete was helpful and very responsive to our questions. We would definitely stay there again.

    Great Location! Walking distance to grocery and restaurants. Clean and well equipped. Not crazy about the big staircase but its workable.

    We were in Austin for our daughters wedding. We had a 5 week stay. The house was not a comfortable house to lounge in the evening. It had bare essentials and the tub was difficult for us older folks to get in and out of. Younger people may have a better time there. I would not go back

    This place is great- we decided to go with VRBO instead of hotel for a swim meet at the university pool. It was such a great location. Restaurants, grocery, really cool sculpture museum all within walking distance. The neighborhood is so neat- we loved walking around and checking out all the cool homes. Easy to get anywhere in Austin from this place. We were super comfortable, kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. House is neat and clean. Enjoyed our stay. Love Austin!!!!
