Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
A 1907 Victorian house in East Austin, two blocks from East 6th Street's live music corridor and all the bars and restaurants that come with it. The backyard is the real centrepiece – a lap pool with a waterfall cascade, fire pits, an outdoor kitchen, and a sauna make it easy to stay put for entire evenings. Inside, six individually designed bedrooms each have their own en-suite, while a Moroccan room with downtown Austin skyline views is the kind of unexpected touch that earns its keep. A Piaggio scooter on-site means the neighbourhood is yours to explore at your own pace.
