About this property

Upscale, Spacious Retreat in the Heart of Houston - Pet-Friendly!

Immerse yourself in luxury at Magnolia House, a spacious retreat nestled in Houston's prestigious Afton Oaks. Just a 5-minute walk from the lively Galleria & River Oaks District, this home is perfect for groups, families, or business travelers. Boasting a tasteful blend of style and space, it's equipped with modern amenities for your utmost comfort. This location is unrivaled, placing Houston's finest attractions at your doorstep. Experience the perfect balance of tranquility & urban excitement.

Step into a beautifully designed interior, where comfort meets classy in every room.

Our home features three roomy bedrooms, each one a sanctuary of coziness with plush beds and crisp linens. Two rooms feature king size beds and the third hosts two queen size beds. All have extremely large closets and/or dressers for ample storage.

The kitchen opens up to the main areas allowing for the whole group to spend time together & is fully equipped for culinary adventures. There are two spacious living areas adorned with tasteful decor inviting you to relax and enjoy quality time with loved ones or kick up your feet and have a movie night in.

But that's not all. Our home also boasts a full size, washer & dryer in a private laundry room (only you will have access) along with a 4th Bedroom / Play Room / Home Office that is set up with two desks, a large sofa that can easily convert to another bed, and features a large closet to store games and art supplies.

On top of all of that, there is a peaceful outdoor area, perfect for those Houston evenings when the breeze kicks in. There's even a fire pit for those rare cool nights, along with an indoor fire place.

With Houston's bustling city center on your doorstep, you're never far from the best dining, shopping, and entertainment venues. The Magnolia House is less than a 2 minute drive (5 minute walk) from the infamous Galleria shopping mall, 10 minutes to Downtown, 10 minutes to City Centre, & 8 minutes to the Museum District. All of this within a stone's throw - yet, the Magnolia House couldn't be in a quieter neighborhood.

Dive into the heart of Houston and enjoy a stay that's as unforgettable as the city itself. Welcome to your home away from home.

Great location! Beautiful and spacious!

The double living areas were perfect for the 80th birthday family gathering we hosted! Beautifully decorated and the mattresses and bedding were great for sleeping. Lovely patio seating area and well stocked kitchen. Owner lives in the other unit of the duplex and was super responsive. Close to great restaurants, shopping, museums, and music venues. I recommend this place highly!

Convenient location & decorated beautifully

The house is conveniently located in the center of Houston making it easy to get anywhere. We had great communication with the host. The house is decorated beautifully making it feel like a home vs a rental. There is plenty of space to spread out with two living rooms and a separate office plus the bedrooms.
