About Julie Levy
I'm a good friend of the owner, and I take care of the booking. I've lived in the n'hood since 2003. I live in a former train depot where we host house shows, lots of dinner parties and the occasional art show. I'm a realtor. My husband is an architect. We've got three kids, and we love living in this neighborhood with it's mix of historic and brand new. It's great to be walk a block to buy a baguette at Blue Dahlia (my husband's French), taste wine any Friday at East End Wines or eat out at at least 10 restaurants within 5 blocks!
Why Julie Levy chose East Downtown
I'm a good friend of the family who has owned this property for generations. They have roots and history like you wouldn't believe. They know where they came from, and they welcome the 'new.'

Wonderful!

If you are visiting Austin don't hesitate to book here!
This review is a little late. I don't know how it skipped my mind but my husband and I spend a week there a while back and we really had a delightful stay. The house is clean and well equipped. Everything was in working order and I can't think of any complaints we had about the house or anything in it.
The real delight about this house is it's location though. It's located RIGHT by all the good food trucks (like, it's in your back yard practically.) As far as everything else has to offer, this location is right in the center and it's a pretty short walk, bike ride, car ride to get most places.
The neighbors have two cute dogs that were super friendly and greeted us every night as we came home. We are dog lovers and these two were hysterical and really added delight to the trip for us. We would book this place again in a heartbeat if we were going back to Austin. Honestly just writing this review makes me itch to go back!
Thanks!
Very nice place close to downtown.
The house is in a decent neighborhood with alot of places of interest nearby. 80% being bars and resturants.
This property is a great choice if you want to relax and have fun in Austin
Perfectly central, cozy, and clean!
This property is so adorable! I stayed here for a month while I was in Austin for work and the home was very clean and comfortable. Super affordable, safe, and way more fun than a hotel. This truly is centrally located, walk out the door and you have tons of cute restaurants, bars, and food trucks in front of you. Lady Bird Lake is within easy walking distance as well with great running/walking trails for miles. Congress, Rainey St., and 6th St. are also all within walking distance if you like to walk. The owner and property manager respond very quickly to any question you may have. I highly recommend this rental to anyone visiting and wanting to explore what Austin has to offer!
Awesome little hidden gem!
The property was perfect and we appreciated the little perks like coffee and such. Great location!
Cute house - Great Location
The house is located in a great location right outside of downtown. Beautifully kept and had all the amenities we could have asked for. Thanks for the great accommodations.
Very clean and comfortable. Excellent value. Communication/response time w/ renter was excellent
Comfortable and spotless.

You are at the pulse of all that east 6th and 7th street has to offer. You are a hipster! Within 3 blocks, you can walk to countless restaurants, everything from food trailers to fine dining (La V); sip a cocktail at East Side Showroom; take in some yoga (Practice Yoga); stroll the State Cemetery and find the graves of notables like Ann Richards or Stephen F Austin. Walk six blocks and you can spend your morning in line at Franklin BBQ (#1 in the USA by Bon Apetit & #1 in TX by Texas Monthly). Four blocks will get you across I-35 to countless eateries and bars. Easy Tiger is the go to for good-as-Paris pastries upstairs and food, drink and ping pong downstairs along Waller Creek. Now you're within striking distance of the infamous Alamo Drafthouse cinema. Hit the hike and bike trail (1 mile away) and see the early-morning mist on the tranquil lake. So many things to do.
