About this property
Mid-Century Modern Albert Home
My home is the only house in little Albert, Texas right across the street from the famous Albert Icehouse and the historic Albert Dancehall. It was purchased in December 2018 and lovingly remodeled inside and out. I trust you will enjoy the decor, the attention to detail, and the fact that everything is brand new and top of the line. I only listed the property in January of 2020 but began hosting happy travelers in the fall of 2019. All feedback has been very positive and some can be found on the Facebook page for The Albert @albertfreakintexas. From my home you can walk across the street for live music and a true honky tonk experience. That said, the house is private and quiet on the inside if that is a concern for you. Or you can enjoy a short drive to the many award winning wineries that are a stone's throw away. We are only a 20 minute drive from Fredericksburg if you would like to shop, but I have a feeling you'll be back in Albert before too long. It is hard to beat the charm of this location and the "real Texas" feel of the place. You are surrounded on three sides by farmland yet situated conveniently on the main road for ready access to nearby attractions. Enjoy a delightful lunch at the Hye Market or the food truck at the Albert Icehouse. If you tire of wine, pop into Garrison Brother's Distillery for a bourbon flight or attend one of their special events. Narrow Path is our nearest winery with expansive views of the Texas Hill Country and a gorgeous indoor/outdoor space to relax. William Chris' award winning wines are not to be missed and are close by in Hye, Texas. The Albert Icehouse sits on twelve manicured acres amidst a pecan grove and under the vast expanse of two ancient and majestic oaks. This is the perfect spot to relax with family and friends of all ages day and night. It is no wonder the Albert Dancehall is a favorite for weddings. If you're a history buff make your way to Lyndon B. Johnson State Park, historic Johnson City, or the Nimitz Museuem in Fredericksburg. So get away from the city for awhile and enjoy this place that so many have just stumbled upon and grown to love. And don't forget to purchase swag at the Albert Icehouse where notable travelers come from far and wide.

About the host
Hosted by Virginia Greenway
My fiance and I stumbled upon this property in the summer of 2018 when we were on our way to pick up two of our five children at camp in Kerrville. I asked the bartender at the Albert Icehouse about a sign that said "Albert, Texas - Population 4." He said, "well that was before those people moved away" and pointed at what is now The Albert. When the house remained available a few months later, I took the plunge and purchased it. After 6 months of careful and detailed renovations, the ugly duckling ranch house with good bones became a true gem of the area. We have enjoyed this home as a couple, with our friends, and with our large family for various holidays. It has become a refuge from the city for our family and we love to share it with like minded travellers. In my other life I am a practicing criminal defense attorney in Austin, Texas, a mom to two and step mom to three, and a dedicated culinary traveler with my partner Tom. We enjoy live music, food and wine artisans, spending time with friends and family over thoughtfully prepared meals, and the beauty of the great outdoors. We prefer a slower pace of life and the cultivation of connections with those who share our interests and pursuits. Lastly, we seek to empower, promote, and support all those who call our part of the hill country home and who use their talents to our endless delight. Be it the gourmet sandwich maker, or the distllier, or the wine harvester, or the guitar picker . . . all of these talented folks make Albert and its surrounding area a collaborative and special place.
Why they chose this property
The Albert combines a sense of being in the middle of nowhere with the convenience of being in the middle of everything. The hustle and bustle of city life and traffic and headaches melt away as I drive to Albert. It is a very unique place in terms of its location, its history, and its "one of a kind" feel. People come from all over the world to check out Albert and the folklore of the place will quickly endear it to your heart. The house itself has been carefully put together with curated items and a color pallete intended to promote feelings of calm, comfort, and familiarity. You will feel at home and also taken care of in this property. Mostly Albert is the perfect place to relax, unplug, and have fun--to get back to the basics of a happy life and step away from the more challenging aspects of daily living.
What makes this property unique
Location, location, location . . . . it is the perfect location. It is close to almost anything you would like to enjoy without being in the middle of a crush of tourists. You will know this place is unique and special the minute you drive up. There's simply not anything quite like it and countless people have already enjoyed The Albert including many repeat renters.
