About this property

Private Retreat in North Austin

Welcome to your peaceful haven in North Austin! Located in burgeoning Tech Ridge, this private room/bathroom offers a comfortable and modern refuge for guests seeking convenience and proximity to all attractions. Only 15-20 minutes to the Domain, Q2 Stadium, downtown Austin, and the airport.

Whether you're a shopaholic, sports enthusiast, or simply seeking a relaxing getaway, our property is the perfect base for your Austin adventures.

This space features 1 bedroom and bathroom, providing comfortable accommodations for up to 2 guests. Wake up gently as gorgeous natural light streams in through the French doors. Step outside to your personal backyard space, where you can relax on the patio and soak up the Texas sun. It's the perfect spot to recharge or enjoy a spectacular view of the colorful “Violet Crown” Austin sunset.

This room includes:
- King size memory foam bed
- 4K TV with access to all streaming platforms (subscriptions required)
- Lightning-fast fiber internet (1gig), allowing you to work, stream, and stay in touch with ease
- Standing work station
- Kitchenette with microwave, mini fridge, and Keurig coffee maker
- Energy-efficient heat pump, ensuring a pleasant temperature year-round (ceiling fan in case you want an additional breeze)
- Endless hot water on demand courtesy of our tankless water heater
- Silky-smooth water for showers and household use via the water softener system (Texas hard water is no joke)

The private bed/bath, fenced in patio, and separate entrance are all yours - we have the rest of the house/backyard. Please note that we have 2 young children so you may hear occasional noise.

Street parking in front of the house is available, but we kindly ask you to keep the driveway clear as we will be doing school/daycare drop-offs by 7am.

I'm a work-from-home professional and will respond immediately when I am not on a call.
We value and respect your privacy and space, but should any need arise that would make your stay more enjoyable, please don't hesitate to reach out!

Great

The room was great as two women who were going to the Bésame Mucho Festival. Had everything we needed for the little time we were actually in the room. It’s very modern, the bed is very comfortable and it was a great stay overall!

Accommodation for Internship

The property had everything I needed. I was in town for an internship with Austin FC (hence the choice in location). Sean as a host was very responsive and supportive. Would recommend this to anyone who is looking for accommodation in the Harris Ridge area.

Austin visit

Room & bath were delightful. Room was too warm, without control of a thermostat. Had to keep the door open at night. Need to put pavers in from sidewalk to back gate. Entering the door at the back was very wet because it was raining, which is why we gave 4 stars.

Good stay

The check in was easy, the space was very aesthetically pleasing and clean! One of the light bulbs went out during the stay but no big deal. Only constructive feedback would be to add a better sound strip under the connecting door, as guests can hear everything on the other side (talking, sneezing, etc.). My husband and I didn’t mind because we have kids but it could potentially bother future guests.

Comfortable, clean, tidy. Would stay again.

Just what I needed during my 4 day stay in Austin! Very clean & uncluttered. King size bed was very comfortable. There's a great walk-in shower, double sink vanity, plush towels, ample walk-in closet. Efficient counter/drawers in the bedroom/studio space with microwave & Keurig, Wi-fi and energy efficient lighting. The entry door to this room is at the back of the house through a privacy fence. The only drawback I can note is that there's no walkway from the sidewalk along side the house to the gate. It would have been helpful if there was a smooth path or pavers to walk on as the grassy ground was a bit uneven and tricky to maneuver at night.

About the host

Hosted by Sean

Host profile image
My family and I moved to Austin in 2022 after almost a decade in NYC. We went from a 650 sq ft 1-bedroom in Brooklyn to more space than we know what to do with in Texas! Though we miss the New York pizza, we're so thrilled to be in a vibrant and family-friendly city like Austin.

We're seasoned travelers and first time hosts, so our goal is to provide the same thoughtful accommodations we'd expect on any of our adventures. Hope to see you soon!

Why they chose this property

Tech Ridge is a thriving hub of innovation and technology, housing major companies such as Dell Technologies, IBM, Apple, Samsung, and many more.

At the end of our street is a playground and basketball court. A short walk across the main road is the Austin FC training facility and The Pitch, an entertainment complex with a bar, restaurants, a pickleball court, and soccer watching parties.

If nature is your thing, stroll through nearby Walnut Creek Metropolitan Park, offering scenic trails, picnic areas, and a swimming pool. You can also relax by the water or go fishing at Lake Pflugerville, a nearby reservoir with beautiful views.

Venture a short distance to The Domain, a premier mixed-use development featuring high-end shops, trendy boutiques, and an array of dining options. Experience upscale shopping, indulge in gourmet cuisine, or enjoy a night out at one of the stylish bars or entertainment venues.

What makes this property unique

It's a quiet neighborhood with plenty of street parking. If you don't have a car, no worries! You can catch a Lyft/Uber rather quickly. For public transit, there's a nearby bus that can take you to the Tech Ridge Park & Ride where there are bus and train options to get around Austin.
