The 'Doe Trail Retreat,' with 1400 sq. feet, has two bedrooms & two full baths with a large, open living-dining area that is accented with a vaulted, cedar beamed ceiling. The home is furnished with a casual elegance fitting of the Austin hill country and is sprinkled with Texas antiques. The living room has a natural rock, gas-burning fireplace that spans the entire east wall. Light hardwood floors compliment the dark chocolate brown leather furniture in the living room. The view through the four large picture windows boasts a beautiful wooded and rocky xeriscaped yard, You will feel as if you are in a resort spa. Step out onto the screened-in deck and enjoy the gardens, while you watch the birds and the occasional deer pass through.
Each carpeted bedroom, both with comfortable queen size beds, has its own bathroom, which makes it perfect for two couples, who might want to share the expense. One bath has a combination tub and shower and the master bath has a shower with a pale green vessel sink and large mirrored cabinet.

This beautiful 1400 sq. foot home is a 2 unit duplex which my husband and I own. Being able to extend our Austin hospitality through our home gives us great pleasure. We hope our Doe Trail Retreat will meet your needs.

                                        So much to see and do near-by. Easy access to downtown and daytrips. Liked the location at a dead-end street, quiet peaceful setting. We visited Congress Ave, Sixth Street, a shopping mall and restaurants and never got into heavy traffic. Great eating and living area. Loved looking out to wooded back yard. Enjoyed sitting on screened in back deck reading and visiting. No other houses visible, giving a very private feel. Luxuriously furnished, lots of light, and very comfortable. Did not want to leave...will stay here again!!

                                      About the owner: This beautiful 1400 sq. foot home is the back unit of a duplex which my husband and I own. We enjoy traveling and being able to extend our Austin hospitality through our home gives us great pleasure. We hope it will meet your needs. We look forward to talking to you and seeing that your visit in Austin is everything you hoped it would be. Benny and Diane Coulston

                                      The Unique Benefits at this House:
                                      What we appreciate most is the proximity to shopping, restaurants, business offices and banks, the two major north to south expressways, Mopac and Hwy 360 and Zilker Park. What we love about our Doe Trail Retreat is the screen-in back porch which affords privacy and an escape from the hustle and bustle. Sit in one of our rockers and over look the greenbelt area, rocky bolder, oak tree filled back yard and xriscaped garden.
