New ListingFurnished 1-6 month lease, $12,000/month. Tucked into the heart of Travis Heights, just steps from South Congress, this modern farmhouse unfolds like a private retreat layered in color, print, and storied texture. A white exterior with blue doors, metal rooflines, and warm wood accents. Behind the gated fence, the property lives like a hidden sanctuary - expansive lawn, flourishing gardens, and a serene creek bed setting the tone for your own urban oasis. Inside, historic shiplap reclaimed from an Austin property lines the walls, while 1800s farmhouse beams stretch across the ceilings. Hardwood floors run throughout, anchoring a living space with a corner fireplace and custom media cabinetry. A wrap of windows frames green backyard views, with built-in speakers throughout. The kitchen is a showstopper - hand-laid tile, a statement island crafted from an antique door, and custom cabinetry surrounding a curated suite of appliances: Wolf induction cooktop, Miele steam oven, 6-burner Thermador range, drink drawers, and Sub-Zero refrigerator. Quartz counters, a wood vent hood, and a farm sink complete the space, which opens to a screened porch for seamless indoor-outdoor living. The primary suite features architectural molding, exposed beams, and a Hotel Saint Cecilia-inspired bath with bold wallpaper and black-and-white tile. Upstairs, three bedrooms surround a second living area, plus a Jack-and-Jill bath and an additional en-suite bath. A private library lounge with teal grasscloth walls offers a moody retreat with built-in bookshelves and custom desks. A detached guest suite with kitchenette and full bath adds flexibility and income potential. Outdoors, mature trees create a canopy of privacy over the lawn, with multiple areas for lounging and dining al fresco. Directly across from Big Stacy Park and its community pool, with easy access to the Blunn Creek Greenbelt Trail and Lady Bird Lake - tranquil creekside living meets walkable urban vibrance.
