Central Austin Luxury Loft - Completely Private
First-class comfort awaits in this light-filled loft with soaring wood ceilings, privately attached to our historic 1930 home. Quiet, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed, the space is ideally located just one mile from the UT Memorial Tower and 1.5 miles from the Texas Capitol—close to everything, yet blissfully removed from downtown’s bustle. We’re delighted to welcome up to two guests who want proximity without the noise. Set in the charming Pemberton Heights neighborhood (west of UT) and within earshot of the UT Memorial Tower bells, this 500-square-foot, one-bedroom garage apartment feels like a private oasis. The loft sits above our garage, accessed by stairs leading to its own private entrance. Inside, you’ll find oak floors true to the home’s original character, a dramatic 15-foot vaulted ceiling clad in vintage reclaimed wood, and a beautifully appointed living space. A murphy bed with an exceptionally comfortable organic queen-size mattress is dressed in high-thread-count sheets and a light down comforter. Relax on the sofa and enjoy the 55” flat-screen TV, or unwind in the spa-like bathroom (shower only) stocked with fresh towels, a blow dryer, and thoughtful extras in case you forget something. The kitchenette includes a Nespresso machine with plenty of capsules for your morning coffee, dishwasher, microwave, small refrigerator (often stocked with a little beer, wine, and milk—though availability can vary, so feel free to ask), and all the plates, cups, bowls, and silverware you’ll need. That said, who really wants to cook while visiting ATX with all the delicious options? Happy to send you my list of favs.
The apartment is tucked away on a quiet half-acre lot in one of central Austin’s most historic and beautiful neighborhoods, yet offers easy access in and out of the area. Free parking is available in front of our home.. You’ll also have free Wi-Fi and a dedicated desk with an ergonomic chair if work calls. A central vacuum system helps keep the apartment as dust-free as possible. Pets and smoking are not permitted.
If you arrive early or need a late departure, we’re happy to help store your luggage . While this is our home, the apartment has a completely separate entrance. You may occasionally see us through our kitchen window if we’re home. Since the loft is above the garage, you may hear us leave in the morning or return in the evening, though we rarely depart before 8 a.m. or stay out past 11 p.m.
Quiet, charming, and ideally located, this loft offers the best of Austin living—historic surroundings, peaceful nights, and effortless access to the city ’s most beloved spots.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a microwave, a refrigerator, and a dishwasher.

Lovely space in a charming neighborhood
The pictures are accurate. The space is an "in-law suite" above the garage on a property in a very nice neighborhood. We visited during Christmas, so many of the houses & trees in the area were adorned with holiday lights. Driving through provided a dazzling experience.The space is what amounts to a studio with a kitchenette--dishwasher, fridge, coffee maker but no oven/stove--off to the side, a murphy bed which lowers from built-in shelving/desk along one wall and a separate bathroom.It's a great size for a couple--plenty of space for sleeping, lounging, etc. We are not TV people, but there is a large screen TV. I wasn't able to get much in the way of programming and attempts to get the surround sound working proved fruitless.The bathroom is very nice, with a great walk-in shower, a variety of soap/lotions and everything else you might need to ensure personal cleanliness.The "but..." section: We enjoyed our stay. We feel like it was a good value and lived up to expectations. My only complaint relates to a fact which can't really be improved upon: While the neighborhood is nice and quiet, it's not walkable. You really need a car, someone to drive you around or use of Uber/Lyft. We used Uber/Lyft almost daily in Austin--including once from the property--and it provided reliable, quick and surprisingly (for Austin) affordable service.Besides, that it's a great space that I would recommend to friends & family visiting Austin.

Austin haven
Stayed here for a week whilst at SXSW. Great base with everything I needed and nice and quiet. Bonus was the shoal creek trail that I used everyday as a traffic free route straight into downtown!

Terrific
This was exactly as advertised & just what I needed for a reasonable price. Thank you!
Amazing communication with property owner (helped to later ship forgotten items). An updated, cozy stay in a top rated neighborhood in the country. Thanks for the memories!
