About this property

Bright Contemporary Guest House with Private Patio, Walk to S Congress, Downtown

A stunning 842 SF detached two-story Guest House in the heart of South Austin, separated from the Main Home by a tree-filled privtate entry. You'll have a full kitchen, dining, living area and a study/work space (desk & LCD monitor) and a half bath downstairs. Upstairs is a bedroom with a King Bed, walk-in closet and an elegant bathroom with a huge, dual-head shower. Guests also have part of the back yard, outdoor seating and a fire pit/chimnea to use that is partitioned from the rest of the yard. You will also have a Smart TV with streaming apps and a full size washer & dryer.

We are a very quick drive or a casual walk to Zilker Park, South Lamar and South Congress! We typically walk to our favorite places...like Lucky Robot Sushi, Torchy's, Lady Bird Lake Hike & Bike Trail, Thai Fresh, Auditorium Shores, Terry Black's BBQ, Summer Moon Coffee, Reina Pepiada, LeNoir, Fresa's and many, many food trucks & trailers!

Come see why Austin continues to be one of the fastest growing and best cities to live in! Cindy and I have been hosting fantastic guests for almost 4 years with 100% posative and ZERO negative reviews (on another site). We set this up as if we would want to stay here without needing anyting outside of food/water/etc. I know you will have a great stay, but please let us know if you have any questions!

Everything was perfect, clean, nice, homey. We booked it for 2 people, but not for a couple. Ad says it sleeps 4, we could not find a pillow or blanket for the futon.

I hesitate to say too much about how nice this place is because I really want it to be available for our next visit to Austin! LOL!! We travel quite a bit and this little gem is now among our faves! Beautifully appointed, very comfortable (that bed!!), and has everything one needs for an easy, enjoyable stay. Love the location which is close to everything on 1st St, Congress, and just a quick drive to downtown. Scott is a gracious and friendly host, always quick to respond to communications, and at the ready if you need anything at all. We will certainly try to stay here again on future visits and highly recommend this great little place to anyone visiting Austin.

Best place in ATX

Our stay was excellent. Scott place is on the top of our list, everything was perfect, from the super coziness of the apartment to the welcoming sprint of the owner and the location of the property. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip to ATX.

Quiet, good location, private.

Very nice accommodations, we wanted to stay in a more private setting than a hotel would be able to offer; we were in town for a family memorial service.
