Modern Decor | Walkable to SoCo
Summary: Welcome to the heart of Austin, where the spirit of the city truly comes alive with a vibrant fusion of culture, creativity, and undeniable Texas charm!
The Space: Known as SoCo to the natives and the South Congress district for the newcomers, this area holds everything from iconic boutiques and artisanal shops to its mouthwatering eateries and lively entertainment venues, offering a one-of-a-kind experience that embodies the essence of Austin's unique character. Whether you're strolling down the bustling streets, immersing yourself in the local art scene, or savoring the flavors of authentic Texas cuisine, a vacation in SoCo promises endless adventures and unforgettable moments.
This chic and modern 3-bedroom home is also within a short distance to even more popular neighborhoods, each offering their own unique blend of art, shopping, dining, and nightlife. Neighboring South 1st Street and South Lamar Boulevard have something to accommodate whatever mood you find yourself in. Immerse yourself in the scene of the city as you head into downtown Austin, stopping in at the many museums and art galleries that weave together the stories of the city. For a more peaceful way to spend the day, take a stroll to Little Stacy Neighborhood Park or along the shores of Lady Bird Lake, offering parks, hiking and biking trails, and even kayaking and paddleboard rentals for an immersive day on the water.
Plentiful outdoor spaces allow you the opportunity to connect with nature and the neighborhood, soaking in as much of that fresh air and plentiful Texas sun as you can manage. The upper-level deck offers comfortable outdoor seating perfect for afternoon cocktails and conversation while the lower deck is a cooler, shaded space for curling up with a good book in the standing basket chairs. In the early morning hours, find your way onto the front porch to sip your fresh cup of coffee while you plan out the adventures of the day.
Heading indoors, high ceilings sit atop elegant spaces illuminated in natural light, outfitted with contemporary furnishings and elevated décor to maximize your experience. Gather together on plush living room sofa seating to stream that new series you’ve been saving on the smart TV. From here, make your way into the formal dining room where the table can seat up to 9 for all of your meals or a spontaneous game night. The fully equipped kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances, glossy stone countertops, and sleek white cabinetry stocked with cookware and dining ware.
This home comfortably sleeps 6 guests between 3 private bedrooms. Each bedroom includes a luxurious king size bed fitted with crisp linens and soft blankets for a great night’s sleep, along with a smart TV. The home’s guest bathroom includes a single vanity and glass walk-in shower.
