The space
THE ELEANOR - Newly designed just for you
Welcome to your perfect Austin getaway! This stylish 1-bedroom bungalow offers a unique, modern design that’s perfect for those seeking an unforgettable stay in the heart of Austin.
LOCATION (SOCO & BOULDIN HOODS)
This is why I bought this place. It's perfectly situated in the SoCo and Bouldin neighborhoods—just one mile from downtown. This stylish retreat offers the perfect balance of relaxation and accessibility, nestled in a quiet setting yet only steps away from Austin’s most vibrant hotspots.
You can walk or bike to iconic destinations like Zilker Park, Barton Springs, and the Austin City Limits (ACL) festival grounds, or explore the legendary South Congress (SoCo) district, known for its eclectic mix of restaurants, boutiques, and live music venues. Or now South Lamar where they are trying to compete with SoCo (they call it SoLo :-). Whether you’re here for business, a weekend getaway, or an extended stay, The Eleanor delivers the ideal combination of comfort, convenience, and Austin’s signature charm.
OUTDOOR DECK
One of our favorite parts of the Elenaor is the yard/deck area with a big umbrella and outdoor furniture. Perfect for lounging, writing, BBQing, and sun worshipping as well as enjoying a beverage as the sun goes down. We have a fire pit that is perfect for smores and keeping you warm on the those crisp nights.
DOG FRIENDLY
We are huge lovers of 4-leggers so we welcome dogs and other pets. There is a yard with a gated fence where the pups can run around and chase balls for hours.
THE SPACE
This chic styled bungalow has been carefully designed to offer a stylish and functional living experience. It features an open floor plan, combining a living area, dining nook, and workspace with a cozy bedroom and modern bathroom. The design is perfect for business executives looking for a quiet and productive space or couples wanting to explore everything Austin has to offer. The home is well-suited for up to 4 guests and even allows small gatherings of up to 10 people, making it perfect for intimate get-togethers or small celebrations.
The home’s interior is bright and airy, with large windows allowing plenty of natural light to flood the space. It comes fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay, including a queen-size bed with luxury linens, a spacious living area with a smart TV, and high-speed Wi-Fi for streaming, work, or entertainment. There’s also a dedicated workspace, perfect for business travelers or those working remotely.
