Travis Heights Art House | House in Austin

1 Bedroom House in Greater South River City, Austin
Summary:
Marvel at stunning views from both the spacious, 400 sq. ft. covered patio and the rooftop deck of this stylish, modern guest house at one of the highest points in Austin. Private, design-forward and featuring original works by local artists, this custom-built home is nestled under a canopy of pecan trees and is perfect for remote working! Big Stacy pool, open year round is steps away.
The Space:
This quiet, historic neighborhood, walkable to South Congress and just south of Lady Bird Lake provides visitors with a genuine South Austin experience. Single travelers and couples alike will adore this one-of-a-kind space with lots of natural light and upscale amenities.
We commissioned local architects, DCA to design this space specifically for our guests, right here in the heart of Travis Heights and near all the best Austin has to offer. Colorful, modern tile work, double "Hans Grohe" shower heads, and custom cabinetry are just of few of the finishes that complement the high ceilings and picture windows throughout.
A spectacular covered patio and rooftop deck provide unique spaces to enjoy the great outdoors for yoga, reading, socializing, or remote working. We also offer complimentary Public Goods essentials for your comfort and locally roasted coffee for your local flavor experiences.
FUN FILM FACT: Shortly after we moved into the front (original) home, we learned that our house was used in the 1993 film 'Dazed and Confused' by Richard Linklater. You can see the house best when Tony (Anthony Rapp) and Sabrina (Christin Hinojosa) are kissing goodbye (a tender moment) at the end of the film.
The rooftop deck is a shared space for us and our guests. If you let us know in advance, we can reserve the rooftop for you.
