Fence Line Little House
A Thoughtfully Designed Tiny Texas Homestead on 5 Private Acres
Welcome to Fence Line Little House — a small Texas homestead designed with intention.
Tucked away on 5 private acres just off Fitzhugh Road, this 700-square-foot home offers a quiet place to slow down while keeping you close to Austin and the Texas Hill Country.
The house was inspired by early Texas starter homes and built around a simple philosophy: use less, need less, and let thoughtful design do more. Its compact footprint, natural light, shaded spaces, insulation, open ceilings, and carefully considered orientation were designed to work with the Texas climate.
This is not a traditional large vacation home. It is a thoughtfully designed tiny house where every square foot has a purpose.
GUESTS & SLEEPING
The home can accommodate up to 8 overnight guests (but it will be crowded and there's only 1 bathroom) — up to 6 adults and 2 children.
Sleeping arrangements:
Upstairs main bedroom: queen bed
Upstairs bunk room: twin-over-twin bunk bed, best suited for 2 children
Downstairs bedroom: full-size fold-out cabinet bed
Living room: queen-size sleeper sofa
PLEASE UNDERSTAND that the house is only 700 square feet with one bathroom, so it is best suited for guests comfortable sharing a cozy, compact space. Perfect for a small family that doesn't desire a lot of privacy.
BEDROOMS
The upstairs main bedroom has a queen bed, linens, a large closet, hangers, and storage. It has an open-ceiling design with a door for privacy.
The upstairs bunk room is very small and has a twin-over-twin bunk bed. It is best suited for children.
The downstairs bedroom has a full-size fold-out cabinet bed, a private door, and a small desk with a bright lamp and nearby outlet, making it suitable for remote work.
There are no TVs in any of the bedrooms.
BATHROOM
One full bathroom is located downstairs and includes a shower/bathtub combination, sink, mirror, hair dryer, fresh towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and toilet paper. The bathroom is accessible from inside the house without going outdoors.
KITCHEN
The kitchen is equipped for simple meals and includes: Full-size refrigerator/freezer, Full stove and oven, Microwave, Coffee maker, Toaster, Pots and pans, Baking sheets, Plates, bowls, cups, glasses, wine glasses and mugs, silverware, Wooden cooking utensils, Kitchen knives, cutting board, Salt, pepper, avocado cooking oil, Paper towels and dish soap. THERE IS NO DISHWASHER
LOW-WASTE & SUSTAINABLE LIVING
Sustainability at Fence Line Little House is quiet and practical. The home uses refillable shampoo, conditioner, body wash and hand soap, bulk/refillable kitchen supplies, reusable water bottles and coffee cups, and environmentally friendly cleaning products. Recycling is provided and strongly encouraged. The home's small footprint, natural light, shading, insulation, airflow, and orientation were intentionally designed to reduce unnecessary energy use. We ask guests to conserve water and electricity and to keep doors and windows closed while the AC or heat is running.
SEPTIC SYSTEM & WELL
The property uses a septic system and an underground well. Normal toilet paper is fine to flush, but please ONLY flush toilet paper. Do not flush wipes, feminine hygiene products, paper towels, tissues, cotton products, or any other items.
AIR CONDITIONING & HEATING
Although it is very efficient, we do live in Texas, so we have equipped the house with a mini split and ceiling fans for cooling and heating.
LAUNDRY & HOUSEHOLD AMENITIES
A washer and dryer are available for guest use. We also provide an iron, small ironing board, outdoor drying rack, vacuum, broom/dustpan, cleaning supplies, extra towels, toilet paper, and hangers. Extra sheets and blankets are available upon request.
