Enjoy cool conferences and festivals while in town at SXSW, and lively musical experiences at ACL — both within two miles of the home.In the fully-furnished kitchen, the sink and built-in ironing board closet came out of the owner’s grandmother’s house and were refurbished for your use. Due to the unusual nature of the antique stove and for safety, a countertop convection oven and a microwave oven to use in place of the antique oven are provided. (The cooktop, though, has been retrofitted with four electric burners.) In addition, you’ll find many modern energy-efficient appliances: dishwasher, garbage disposal, ice maker, toaster, coffee maker, hot water pot, and a blender with a frozen Margarita recipe handy.The master bedroom includes direct access to the front porch and features nine-foot ceilings as well a large bay window.

Ancient Pecan, Live Oak, and Red Bud trees provide ample shade.Exclusive to the vacation rental is an antique brick patio (with an interesting history) with a 3-tiered fountain and native plants, under a hundreds-of-years-old Live Oak tree.
