Rent Apartment Engine Oleaster Austin
Holiday Home Rental Description
It’s not every day you get to stay in a piece of Texas history. This family home in Austin has been granted landmark status – and with its 200-year-old oak trees and quintessentially-Southern front porch, we can see that heritage in spades.
Step inside and you’ll find a home that fully embraces 21st-century living. The most time-honoured room is the living area, where carefully-curated books line the shelves and a crackling fire awaits on chilly evenings. We also love the formal dining area – that vintage table is just begging for family dinners – and the study, where you can hunker down at the desk in the window.
The kitchen, meanwhile, is a chef’s dream – we think foodies will love cooking up a storm in here. And the layout is perfect for bigger groups, with a family room and a separate casita out back providing plenty of space for the kids to hang out.
When the sun is shining, spend your day in the garden, cooling off with a dip in the pool or shooting some hoops on the basketball court. Come dinnertime, chow down on Texas barbecue (your host can arrange a pitmaster for you!) before soaking under the stars in the hot tub.
Location-wise, you’re just a ten-minute or so drive away from both downtown Austin and the bustling campus of UT Austin. Whether you want to dance the night away at the many music venues, catch a college football game or explore the Texas capital, you’ll be well-placed for endless adventures.
