About this House

Spacious rooms with good natural light. High ceilings, wood and carpeted floors, ceiling fans. Fireplace. Eat-in bar. Stained glass mosaic backsplash in kitchen. Radiant barrier in attic that keeps out summer heat. Relax on the magic-feeling porch, listen to the birds sing and watch the many butterflies and bees. Prime East Austin location with quick access to downtown. Close to restaurants, coffee shops, and local hotspots. Easy commute to major employers and the University of Texas but feels like living in the country. Fenced yard full of life with plenty of trees and flowers.. Cottonwood tree leaves rustle like you're by a creek.

Renter takes care of yard, but owner will assist if help is needed. Small dogs, indoor cats, and birds are welcome if they are non-destructive. Potential renter must share previous rental history.

  • Sean S.
    "Over the 15 years we've lived here the neighborhood has significantly changed. Of course the changes in Austin over that time are pretty drastic and significant as well. We love this place, it's like a little bit of country in the City. Especially pulling into our small neighborhood on Pecan Springs from the 51st Street side before it doglegs up to Springdale. The amount of work we've put into our home and the landscaping has made it difficult coming to terms with leaving. Have to look at the bright side; change is good."
