East Side Bungalow Backhouse
Bright, modern, studio apartment for rent in safe, quiet neighborhood just east of downtown. Stand alone and detached back house is of brand new construction, and includes access to the backyard patio, and private alley access. Walk to the vibrant Rainey Street bars and restaurants (8 minutes), or be in the heart of downtown in a 10 to 15 minute walk. Great coffee shops and restaurants even closer by. Terrific for single travelers or couples alike. All are welcome!
Our modern Bungalow speaks for itself as a bright, clean studio whose style you might call Marfa modern. Cement floors and white walls with local artwork give this place a warm, Texan feel. Mexican and octagonal clay tiles give the bathroom a regional charm, and all the fixtures are brand new and modern.
You'll have access to the stand alone guest house as well as the patio and outdoor table.
Location, location, location. We are in the heart of the East Side. Apart from being so close to downtown, 6th Street and Rainey Street, you are mere steps from your favorite restaurants like the acclaimed Oseyo (Korean), Suerte (legit Mexican and ridiculous cocktails), Ramen Tatsuya (incredible ramen), Cisco's and Juan in a Million (old school Austin favorites), and Launderette (local favorite). We also have some of the best coffee shops within a 5 minute walk: Flat Track (hipster chic), Texas Coffee Traders (friendly old school classic, no frills), and Cenote (also some amazing food). Great bars also within 5-10 minute walk: Stay Gold, Whistlers, The Weather Up, The Liberty, White Horse (dancing/country). Our Bungalow is truly in the middle of it all.
Walking on foot is probably the most exciting way to take in the neighborhood on your way downtown or out to eat or drink. But if you're traveling across town for ACL or further out, I'd recommend taking a Lyft or RideAustin ride-share. The scooter (Lime/Bird) and rent-a-bike (Uber/Austin B-Cycle) craze has also landed here. They are available within a couple blocks walk usually. - Please leave shoes near door.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.
