Escape to a private second-floor studio with treetop views just 10 miles from Downtown Austin and minutes from Texas Hill Country. This airy retreat features a Murphy bed, retro kitchenette, and balcony with lush oak views. Enjoy a cozy courtyard, nature, and bring your pet along for the adventure.
The studio sits on the second floor, surrounded by towering oaks and peaceful acreage. Inside, the open layout feels airy and bright, with high ceilings, natural light, and treetop views from nearly every angle. A Murphy bed folds down to create a cozy sleeping nook and tucks away during the day for more living space. Nearby, a modern futon offers an additional sleeping spot, making the studio comfortable for up to 3 guests.
The living area is styled with mid-century modern touches, including a lounge chair and ottoman perfect for curling up with a book or enjoying a quiet evening. French doors open to a private balcony, where you can sip coffee in the morning or watch the sunset filter through the trees.
The retro-inspired kitchenette features a mini-fridge, microwave, sink, and coffee maker, along with dishes, utensils, and basic condiments for simple meals. A dining table sits nearby, offering a spot to share breakfast before heading out to explore Austin or the Hill Country.
The bathroom includes a walk-in shower with a rainfall showerhead, stocked with fresh towels and bath products. For longer stays, the studio is equipped with a washer and dryer, as well as high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, heating, and a ceiling fan to keep you comfortable year-round.

Guests have exclusive use of the entire second-floor studio and private balcony. The courtyard, which includes the picnic table, and seating area, is a shared space with the main house.

We respect your privacy and want you to feel at home during your stay. The owners live on-site in the main house and are happy to help if you need anything, but otherwise you’ll have as much privacy as you’d like.
The studio is tucked away in a quiet, residential neighborhood of acreage lots, winding streets, and century-old oak trees. It’s a peaceful setting where you can hear the wind in the branches and spot deer wandering through the area, yet you’re just a short drive from Austin’s best attractions.
Only about 15 minutes from Downtown Austin, you’ll have easy access to live music venues, renowned restaurants, and cultural landmarks like Zilker Park and Barton Springs Pool. Drive west and you’ll reach the Texas Hill Country in about 15 minutes, where wineries, breweries, and scenic trails await. Whether you’re in the mood for a day of outdoor adventure or a night out in the city, this location offers the perfect balance of nature and convenience.
