About this property

Your East Austin hideaway!

Come see for yourself why Austin is suddenly on everyone’s lips as one of the hottest places to visit in the country! Mere minutes from the trendy new Mueller Development and a quick 15-minute drive to downtown, this home is literally the best of both worlds - close enough to the nexus of all the activity but nestled in a quiet, scenic neighborhood surrounded by trees and echoing with the hum of cicadas.

A reeded, tempered glass sliding partition separates the living room from a cool, converted den space. The abundant kitchen cabinets are Danish oiled oak. Counter tops are beveled rose granite. Both baths feature custom designer tile, high end vanity and fixtures.

Just a few blocks away from the pretty Dottie Jordan Park which has a swimming pool and a relaxing little hiking trail, you’ll love the coziness of this property and the unbeatable location.

NOTE: Rates are based on the number of individuals who will be staying at the property. Additional surcharge assessed for parties larger than two persons. Correct quantity of guests must be indicated. Violations subject to penalty. And, while we do permit clean, well-behaved pets, we must be advised beforehand. There is a $75 fee per pet.

Great place close to everything

This is a great little house located in a cute neighborhood close to shopping and downtown. 10 to 15 minutes from Austin’s amazing downtown food and music scene and 2 minutes to the grocery store if you are looking to eat in. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to suit our needs during our stay.

Great location close to everything!

The house was perfect! It was clean, but smelled a little musty (like it had been closed up for a while). No big. There was a candle and lots of ceiling fans to circulate the air. It was so close to everything we wanted to do. All of our drives were 10-20 min. It was a super quiet neighborhood which was super nice after a day of hustle bustle downtown. We loved sitting out on the patio and eating breakfast one day. We couldn't get either coffee maker to work (totally could have been operator error...and we did not contact owner). It just gave us a reason to try all the 3,000 local coffee shops...which I'm not complaining about! They were SOOOO good! The only other reason I gave 3 stars for accuracy of online listing was (admittedly lame on my part) that the decor wasn't like the photos. It was a little more sparse than pictured, but the beds were AMAZINGLY comfortable. We had all the amenities we needed. Great stay overall for our 4th annual sister trip.

Wonderful !!

Christina was amazing and very attentive to our needs and requests. It was a wonderful spot and perfect for our trip to move my daughter home from college for the summer. Easy access to all main roadways and a lovely quiet neighborhood to decompress in after a busy day. Home was stocked with all our needs. Would definitely stay again !!

Just okay

The space is adequate and it's a quiet neighbourhood. Christina was responsive to our requests and is overall welcoming and caring. However, there were a few annoying features like: -- Dishwasher upper rack was broken --Headboard in the guest bedroom was broken -- There were minimal dishes and utensils when we arrived, but Christina brought a few. -- The floors were vacuumed but not washed for a long time. We always remove street shoes in the house and our socks turned black within a couple of hours of arrival -- Some bathroom fixtures are awkward and cheap -- Some decorative items that you see in the photos were missing The unit is okay, but not more than that.

Uni Hills Gem

My wife and I stayed at this lovely house for three weeks to visit our new grandson. The house was perfect for our needs -- comfortable, well-stocked, and with reliable A/C, which was critical during the record-setting heatwave. Spencer and Christina were great to deal with, before, during and at the end of the stay. If East Austin is the right neighborhood for you (and it's easy to get downtown and, especially, to Mueller from here) this is a great home.

Nice, clean and modest sized house in University Hills. 2 beds, 2 baths - very comfortable for me and my brother. Big back yard. Quiet neighborhood. It's about 15 minutes to downtown area. Would recommend.
