Description

Spend six months (or more) in an exotic land without ever leaving Austin. Welcome to the Loft House, winner of the ABC Living Well Channel's 'Sweet Retreats' Austin edition, also known as the "Bali-inspired Artist's Retreat". Situated on two acres of private green-space on a non-through street, this private oasis offers easy access to downtown Austin (14 minute drive), the south Austin entertainment districts, hiking trails, shopping, the airport and Texas Hill Country Wineries. The two story, naturally lighted artist's loft, has a flexible floor plan to accommodate a wide range of entertaining, living, working and sleeping arrangements. This spacious home features custom finishes and art pieces from Bali, and other exotic locales. The very private outdoor living space offers numerous ways to enjoy the warm Austin weather; eat breakfast in the large screened porch, sip mojitos on the deck or paddle around the lap pool as deer, foxes, Mexican eagles and hummingbirds frolic nearby. The Loft area is a flexible space that can be configured as a home office, or additional sleeping area for three. About the neighborhood: Sunset Valley has been called 'Austin's best kept secret'. This neighborhood features large lots, many old and beautiful trees, horses, goats, chickens and abundant wildlife yet its only 14 minutes from downtown Austin. The home is less than a block away from the Austin Montessori School, Sunset Valley Elementary School and the Toney Burger Activity Center. The Sunset Valley hiking trailhead is two blocks away, and the Violet Crown trailhead, connecting Sunset Valley to the Barton Creek Greenbelt, is only four minutes away by car. Should you need to stock up on supplies there's a massive shopping area four minutes to the west (on Brodie Lane), and my favorite, huge gourmet grocery store (Central Market) four minutes to the east. Contact the owner for links to the virtual tour and for several videos. Utilities, Google Fiber and housekeeping included! (5 hours every other week). No smokers please. Certain pets are considered. Driveway parking spaces for three cars (if you need additional spaces it can be arranged). Foodie-friendly fully stocked kitchen (lots of equipment and staples). Leases of 6 months or longer are preferable.
