vacation rental description

This "Fabulous" House is like no other. It is beautiful and best of all located in the heart of Austin.  You've heard of LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION and LUXURY LUXURY LUXURY...correct?
Well this house defines it all. The house is located 1 minute from downtown Austin by car or walk 4.5 minutes, 1 minute from the Capital of Texas, 2 miles from UT, 1 mile to SoCo.
It is beautifully furnished.

Imagine a vacation where you don't have to rent a car.  Everything is within walking distance or if you choose to ride a $5.00 cab will get you downtown.

The airport is 8 minutes away.

ABOUT THE HOUSE:

This house was built in 1910 and remodeled in 2006.
The house has approx. 2,600 sq. ft. (+ or -)

It has 14 ft. ceilings, a gorgeous chandelier, crown molding, anitque wallnut floors, granite counter tops, an enclosed balcony on the 2nd floor with 24 windows and a view of downtown.

Enjoy a glass of wine on the 2nd floor balcony and watch the sun set.

This 2 story vacation house sits on top of the hill on the corner of E. 9th Street and San Marcos Street. The left side of the house is located on E.9th Street and the front of the house faces San Marcos STREET.

Don't get confused! The house address is 815 San Marcos Street and it is here in Austin.
FYI...There is a small town up the road named San Marcos and many have mistaken the street address and the city.

WALK ANYWHERE:

Famous 6th Street walk 4.5 minutes, Resturants are only 2 blocks away on E. 11th. Begin with Blue Dahlia Bristro. Dine inside or outside and enjoy a tartine with a cup of soup or better yet a Porcini Ravioli. You will find the most amazing food that is tasty and healthy too!

Walk across the street from this "Fabulous House" and tour the French Legation Museum or walk two blocks on E. 9th and see the State of Texas Cemetary.

Tour the State Capital, the Unitversity of Texas,
stop in the Bob Bullock Museum and listen to the "Story of Texas."

Right around the corner from your vacation house is the Uncorked Tasting Room/Wine Bar on E. 7th and only a skip and a jump will land you in the center of the Live Music Capital of the World and Austin's famous 6th Street


In the evenings stay home and relax. If you sit on the deck or the front porch you can hear the music from the French Legation Museum. Many evenings concerts are held there. The French Legation Museum grounds are a park like setting with green grass, rolling hills and oak trees. Go join the fun! Simply grab a blanket and head over there, listen to the music and take in a breath of
Austin.

traveler reviews for this austin house rental

Great home, great experience, highly recommend this house!

Windy City (Chicago, STL, Baltimore)
Review submitted: January 11, 2012   Date of arrival: December 29, 2011

Our large family recently came to town for a family wedding & this house was the perfect set up! Incredibly close to the airport, close to 6th St./downtown, UT campus, etc. We rented a car and only tacked on approx 15-20 miles total (to and from the airport). The house was very clean and welcoming. The weather was outstanding so we spent most of our time hanging out on the great porch. The owner was always speedy to reply to my questions. You'll be happy with your stay here!

Excellent Stay!

Review submitted: November 2, 2011   Date of arrival: November 25, 2010

A group of us (guys in our 30s) went to Austin for a "guys weekend." We were looking for a convenient house to the Austin nightlife and University of Texas football stadium. This house was perfect for a group of 8, although it could handle several more if necessary. The house was conveniently located ... we could walk to the UT football stadium and Austin nightlife, although a couple of places we went were a short cab ride away. The house is in new condition, very clean, has a nice family/living room area with an open concept and a flat screen TV. Everyone in my group was really happy about the house and its location, and I would highly recommend it for any group of 6-10 people who are looking for a getaway in Austin. Further, the landlord was very accommodating and easy to work with.

Recommended for: families with young children, families with teenagers, girls getaway, sight seeing, tourists without a car
