"Family & pet friendly. Ideal for our family needing a nice place to stay while undergoing remodel. Great location close to SoCo but not too close that you have to deal with parking cars & crowds."

About this house rental

Find yourself steps away from all the action when you book our recently updated two-story bungalow nestled just one block away from the heart of South Congress and 1st Street. Explore one of Austin’s most historic and unique neighborhoods, with hip restaurants and eclectic shopping only steps away. When you’re ready to relax, unwind under the sun in the custom landscaped front patio, perfect for people watching. If you’re looking for a quintessentially Austin experience, head straight to our SoCo home.

The Space
The 1443 sq ft bungalow offers an open concept first floor layout perfect for entertaining, featuring a main living area that flows directly to the dining room and kitchen. In the living room, sit back on a brand new sofa that converts to a pullout queen bed, or cozy up with a good book in our plush mid-century modern velvet chairs. Stay connected with high-speed internet and use our 60" Smart HD TV to stay caught up on all your favorite shows.

Head upstairs to the Master bedroom featuring a queen bed and ensuite, newly updated master bathroom with walnut cabinets, quartz countertops, and an oversized glass shower. Both guest bedrooms are down the hall and feature a queen or two twin beds with an adjacent private full bathroom.

Make the most of the Austin weather in our custom landscaped fenced-in front patio area featuring a vintage glider swing and table with chairs. Don’t forget to fire up the stainless gas grill, perfect for entertaining. Additional private fenced yard accessible from back door and driveway.

Guest Access
Our home is all yours for the duration of your Austin stay. Parking for three vehicles is available in the driveway, with additional free street parking out front. Safely and easily enter through the front door via electronic keypad.

South Congress and South 1st streets only steps away...with Magnolia Cafe and Polvo’s at either end of the street. Cruise down South Congress Avenue on foot to snag some famous Torchy’s Tacos. Then take your photo in front of the iconic “i love you so much” wall art before catching some live music at the Continental Club. The absolute best of Austin is just a short walk from the front door!

There's no better way to experience the true Austin vibe than this gorgeous home in Austin's most coveted neighborhood!

    Awesome Location & Great Host in ATX!
    Awesome Location & Great Host in ATX!
    I live in ATX and rented this property for guest while my house was being rennovated during ACL! The location is amazing and just steps away from SoCo shopping, murals, and more. The front yard is also fenced in and was great for my pup. We were able to sit out there, people watch, and burn off some of his energy before leaving the house. The host was also amazing and offered the perfect amount of communication. I highly recommend staying here if your looking to be in the action without it being overwhelming.

    My family (husband and 2 kids 10&6) stayed here. The home was even better in person! It was immaculate. The home had anything and everything you could think of, which is great when on vacation (even more so when you’re with your kids!) The home is walking distance to SO MANY THINGS! The bats under the Congress Bridge, biking and walking trails along Lady Bird Lake, non motorized water sports on Lady Bird Lake, shopping and art all over Congress street, a 10 minute walk over the bridge to The heart of downtown if you desire) We grilled out one night and sat outside while the kids played in the fenced in front yard. It was perfect. This location has it all. The owners were in touch once we made our reservation and made sure our stay was great. As a family that travels often, we appreciate a well thought out VRBO and are even more happy to share our over the top good experiences with you. Check out this place while in Austin, you won’t be disappointed.

    My family and I rented this house for a small family gathering in Austin. Having never been to Austin before, I took the recommendation of a relative who lives in town on where the best spot is... he was not kidding that this house was right near tons of local attractions, shops and restaurants. We were able to walk to the Magnolia Cafe 2 blocks down, and were able to get ice cream / snacks / do some shopping whenever we felt like. The house itself was great, very clean and decorated nicely. The kitchen was full of everything we needed, the beds all had good quality linens and blankets. There was plenty of street parking for our cars. Really it was everything I could want from a rental, so it was overall a very good experience.
