About this property

Patio, Walk to restaurants | The Wilson by Portoro

Summary:
This modern home is perfectly situated to give you easy access to South Congress, South Lamar, and more! The Wilson by Portoro has an open concept floorplan with decor and finishing touches that easily balance sleek sophistication with classic Austin style. The living area opens to a private garden patio with a table that seats 6 when you want to dine al fresco and cornhole farther in the backyard when your playfully competitive side wants to come out.

The Space:
When you step into The Wilson by Portoro you are greeted by a upscale, laid back vibe that immediately lets you know you chose the right home for your stay. You will be delighted by the thoughtful design, from the modern cabinetry and wall treatments to the natural elements of leather furniture and greenery.

The ground floor includes a gorgeous kitchen you'll wish was your own that includes an island for added countertop and dining space. Feel free to take advantage of it during your stay to whip up a gourmet meal for you and your friends and family. The kitchen opens to the living space with a smart TV offering the perfect place to curl up and catch up on your shows. A half bath is also conveniently located on this level.

There is a garden patio off of the living area that is beautifully landscaped with native plants and creeping vines set against a bold wooden and metal backdrop. There is a table that is perfect for an outdoor lunch or for your morning coffee. The patio leads to the backyard where you can play cornhole or even unwind in the seclusion with meditation or yoga.

When you are ready to turn in for the night, head upstairs to the two bedrooms - one with a luxurious queen bed and the other with two comfy singles. In addition to the two bedrooms there are two full bathrooms upstairs, each equipped with walk-in showers.

You are sure to enjoy your time at The Wilson by Portoro, but don't forget all that Austin has to offer! Here are some great recommendations to start exploring:

Easily walkable:
Cosmic - Cosmic is not just a bar or cafe, it’s a sustainability-focused gathering space where guests can enjoy unique experiences, and reconnect with friends, natural spaces, community, and themselves.

Plaza Colombian Coffee - Hip, arty coffee shop featuring Colombian bites like empanadas & arepas, plus outdoor seating.

Nomadic Beerworks - Two brothers share their discoveries through the beer they brew and invite all to sit down, enjoy a pint and a panini, and refuse to settle for boring beer!

Just a short ride away:
SoCo - Enjoy all that the South Congress District has to offer - food, shopping, drinks, and more!

SoLa - South Lamar offers even more of what you love - great restaurants, live music, and even Alamo Drafthouse where you can catch a movie and a meal.

Nice stay

Clean, beautifully decorated, well maintained home. Living room is a bit small and only one small TV in the home. Communication from host was friendly. Check in was easy and it was nice to have a few lights on inside the home as we arrived a bit late at night.
Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025
