This lovely three bedroom, two bath home is located in central Austin convenient to UT, downtown, and South Congress. If you are coming to visit Austin's fabulous music venues, to share the memory of a wedding or graduation, a family gathering, or for a work-related activity, you will want to stay at Hill House. This house is located in an established neighborhood with local restaurants and shops. For family entertainment, the Alamo Draft House Theaters, indoor ice skating rink, indoor skating rink, pool hall, and bowling alley are all within minutes of the house. The house has a private, fenced back yard with covered deck that is great for entertaining at home.
Special features of the house include fabulous hardwood floors throughout, granite counters with glass mosaic tile in the kitchen, master bath with mosaic tile and custom dressing area. The living areas are very open while the bedrooms offer complete privacy. There are two living areas, a dining room, and two counter/bar areas with seating in the kitchen. The kitchen is open to the living and dining areas and is fully equipped. The glass sunroom is a wonderfully tranquil garden room that looks onto the back yard and opens directly onto the covered deck. The sunroom also has a lovely bistro table perfect for morning coffee or an evening cocktail. The bedrooms all have ceiling fans, are all separate, and offer maximum privacy. The house has a detached game room that has a Wii game consul, flat screen TV, and foosball table that also converts to multiple games. The Wii is just as popular with the adults as it is with the kids.
Although the house is privately located in a quiet neighborhood, the house is within five minutes of major freeways for easy access to Austin sites, The University, and medical centers.

Why the Owner Chose Austin
Central Austin is so convenient...close to everything. Allendale is one of those "Leave to Beaver" neighborhoods that you just don't want to miss. Come home to our house!
Owner's Map of Austin
A few years ago my husband and I were looking for a business that we would enjoy when we decided to retire. We started with one vacation rental property in 2007, and we now have 4 properties and manage a fifth. The best part of this business is the variety of guests that we have hosted. Our goal is to offer a uniquely Austin experience in a wonderfully inviting home environment. With our retirement plans still on the horizon, we could not be happier with our choice to offer ourselves as your hosts.
