About this property
The Greenhouse
Embrace the unique charm of this revamped mid century 1954 home with 3 inviting bedrooms. The residence features an array of vintage and modern furnishings and decor, vibrant oranges and greens, mesmerizing motifs, an open-plan living area, and a covered outdoor dining space. Come enjoy a little bit of Palm Springs in Austin!
We have lovingly restored this 1954 house to bring it back to its mid-century swing. The Greenhouse is furnished with our collection of vintage furniture and light fixtures that we have collected over the years.
The house features 3 bedrooms- 2 queen beds and a king- all with new mattresses, foam toppers, and every type of pillow firmness to find "that one." Each room has light filtering shades and drapes to make it a cozy den. The sofa in the living room can serve as single bed as well.
The living room features a 50" TV (not pictured in the photos) with a Roku box for Internet TV (HBO GO, WatchESPN, Amazon, Netflix).
The kitchen features custom tile from Nicaragua, longleaf pine countertops, and plenty of culinary tools and tableware to host a dinner or a party.
Not interested in cooking? We are walking distance (6 blocks) to restaurant row on Manor Road: Mi Madre's for breakfast, El Chile for lunch and Salty Sow for dinner, and Butterfly Bar for a nightcap. Never wash a dish!
Our location on the East Side is an excellent central basecamp for Austin's downtown and east side highlights- SXSW, ACL, Formula 1, and UT sporting events. If you're just in town to see Austin, we have a list of our favorite restaurants and interesting things to do in Austin.
Looking for water in the Texas heat? There's a splash pad just 2 blocks away for the kiddos, and many nearby neighborhood pools- Mueller, Rosewood and Bartholomew Park. If you're a bit adventurous, check out the natural swimming holes just on the outskirts of the city, or go tubing for the day in San Marcos. We wrote up a guide at the house with all of these options for your trip.
We have a few amenities not seen in the photos:
Tivoli speaker
Pack and play
High chair
Kids toys
Board games
Books
Alarm system
Please note that our decor is mid-century modern, and that style comes with low-to-the-ground seating and beds, which some of our older guests find challenging to get in and out of.
We live a few blocks away- if you have any questions or even an emergency, we're here to help.
We are a licensed vacation rental with the city of Austin.

About the host
Hosted by Ashley Menger
We are a husband and wife team who own and host this property by ourselves- and try to make every experience here awesome. As travellers ourselves (and now with kiddos) we understand the value of airbnb and what you need in a home away from home. We've furnished this house as we would hope to find on airbnb.
We have a design and build company for custom homes, called Hatch Works, and are proud to build 3-4 homes per year in Austin. Houses that feel like home are our thing.
