About this property

Lux SoCo Penthouse in the Heart of Austin

Welcome to your luxurious Austin landing pad. The SoCo Penthouse is located right off South Congress, a stone's throw from Austin's best shopping and dining. Sleep on the third floor in a comfy king bed with your own large deck overlooking pecan trees, Austin sunsets, and South Congress vibes.

While we are close to all the action, once you walk through the gate into the private front yard, you are in your own little oasis. You likely won't need a car, but if you have one, we offer an off-street parking spot behind our remote controlled gate (it's perfect for "normal" sized cars, but we can't accommodate camper vans or long trucks).

As we are next to a lively area, including a boutique, 4 star hotel, you may catch some of the buzz from South Congress, especially on weekends. That said, we're also nestled next to a quiet, family-friendly neighborhood, and we’re committed to being great neighbors—so no parties, please. Think relaxed evenings with a glass of wine, not rowdy nights out.

You should also know our home has a modern style with tall ceilings and lots of light-filled rooms with high-up windows. Some of the windows don't require or accommodate coverings. While there is ample privacy, you will not have the ability to "black out" rooms. We do have fresh eye masks and earplugs for your use, but if you need full control of the light, this will not be the best place for you.

Finally, there are stairs! We technically have 3 stories, so you will need to carry your luggage (and yourself) up the stairs. We think it's worth it to enjoy the "treehouse" vibe, but we completely understand that doesn't work for everyone.

Once you arrive, you’ll find there’s no shortage of amazing things to do nearby—we’re happy to tailor recommendations based on your interests. Whether it’s food, music, shopping, or nature, Austin’s got something special for you, and we’d love to help you experience it like a local.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Meredith Maycotte

Host profile image
We are originally from Texas and Mexico. We love traveling the world and like to stay in vacation rentals so we can get a more local experience wherever we go. We also really enjoy hosting other guests.

Why they chose this property

Our neighborhood is a quintessential Austin neighborhood. There is a lot of action, and you really feel like you are right in the middle of everything. A lot of people in Austin end up using their cars to get everywhere. However, we really wanted a place that you could walk out the front door and start experiencing the vibrant city. The houses in the neighborhood are a mix of historic gems and modern architecture. We really enjoy the eclectic vibe.
