Creekside Cottage in the City, 1 BR, addt’l sleeper sofa, AC & all amenities

This lovely stone cottage is built in the valley between Boggy Creek and the Walnut Creek bike/walk trail.

The house is three/four rooms: living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom—all rather large. There is a queen bed in the bedroom that will make you feel like you’re sleeping on a cloud. The second bed is a quality, comfortable, memory foam sleeper sofa, that folds out flat and provides great support.

This home comes with all the amenities you’ll need to feel right at home: from cooking implements to cozy sitting and eating spaces, and necessities like tea, coffee, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, washer/dryer with environmentally friendly detergent, ironing board, and extra pillows. There is abundant parking, merely steps away from the front door.

While the amenities abound, there is no microwave, which I feel enhances the old-world charm. That said, there is Starlink wifi and a small TV (hidden in the secretary desk) so it's not completely old-world ;)

And the views!! Every room has breathtaking views—as you gaze out on old shade trees, even a rare American Elm; and the neighboring farm (though rather overgrown at this time) is a site to see and adds to the private nature of the property.

This house feels like it’s in the country, even though it’s actually in the city—which means you get the best of both worlds—nature, quiet, and quick access to bustling city life. You’ll also hear city sounds of planes and the occasional train, but I don’t believe the sounds are bothersome. There are also some country bugs: caterpillars, pollinators, etc; they’ll occasionally follow you into the house—I usually catch and release them, but it’s up to you what you do with the occasional 6-legged friend.

It really is a beautiful place and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

NOTE: there is construction in the valley that is scheduled to be completed by Aug 2026, so there may be construction noise during the day. The price per day has been adjusted to account for this inconvenience and loss of access to the creek.

Oh, and there are fig, plum, and persimmon trees on the property—feel free to pick and enjoy!!

Quaint and peaceful

Close to everything in Austin but feels like you’re someplace else. Walking and biking trail nearby. House has what you need with a rustic feel and great outdoor space.
