Comfortable home close to S. Congress
This was a terrific base for our family's visit to Austin for the F1 races. The home is lovely, just as described and shown in photos (except leather couch has been well loved). It's just a few minutes easy walk to S. Congress for great options for morning coffee, restaurants and shopping. Even with that easy access, the neighborhood itself is a quiet area of beautiful homes. Would definitely stay again!

Austin wedding
This property was perfect for our entire adult family to use for a base for a wedding on South Congress. The house is perfectly located just far enough off Congress to avoid noise but very close. The house itself has many very high end architectural features and was very pleasant on all fronts

Fun area. Only 3 min walk to S Congress food and shops. Nice house for trip with friends! For safety on the glass doors, we suggest adding inside door locks not accessible by the reused digital lock and keys.
