With a touch of modern comfort and plenty of space to unwind, it's a true gem for families, friends, or even a cozy getaway for couples.

The house has a great layout with plenty of spaces to hang out. You'll find a cozy dining area to enjoy home-cooked meals or indulge in a lively game night with your loved ones. Just off the dining room, an enclosed patio beckons you with its yoga tile floors, a sofa, and a crackling electric fireplace. It's the ideal spot to unwind, read a book, or gather for some quality time. Oh, and did we mention there's an additional TV out here plus a convenient laundry room for your use.
The 2 bedrooms are tastefully furnished and each features a luxurious queen bed adorned with hotel-quality linens. The larger of the two bedrooms has a desk and monitor setup to help promote working from home. So, whether you're a remote worker, traveling nurse, waiting for your home to be remodeled, or traveling for a fun mid-term vacation, you can rest assured that a peaceful night's sleep awaits you.
Between the two bedrooms is a fully functional office that features a spacious desk, a large monitor perfect for remote work, and a printer for any last-minute documents. It’s designed to meet all your productivity needs, whether you’re working or studying. If you have extra guests, the room also includes a comfortable futon that easily converts into a bed, providing an additional sleeping area. Ideal for those balancing work and relaxation!
But the fun doesn't end indoors! Step outside into the spacious backyard and discover your own private oasis. Evenings spent around the fire pit, sharing stories and laughter under the starry Texan sky. There's also ample seating, providing the perfect setting for al fresco dining or simply soaking up the sun during the day.
Location-wise, you're in luck! Our home is within walking distance of the new St. Elmo's District, ensuring you're never far from the fun. Immerse yourself in Austin's vibrant music scene, see bluegrass two nights a week, explore the trendy shops and eateries, or simply soak up the city's unique atmosphere.

Have rented in Austin the last four winters and Dasha’s house is by far the best place we have stayed in. Everything you need is supplied, from coffee to excellent clean linens, to 5 tv’s to choice from and friendly neighbors if you need anything . Would rate this a 6 star if we could.
