Our private, wooded 5 acre homestead (equipped with goats, chickens, bunnies, beehives, cats, garden, detached homeschool classroom and nature trail) is nestled just 15 miles from downtown Austin, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway or city play in the Live Music Capitol. Brand new beautiful private swimming pool and hot tub. Our home was custom built with our own hands in 2019 so is very near to our hearts. We would love to share its beauty and tranquil vibes with you!
Things to do in Austin:
Austin was recently named No. 1 place to move in the WORLD in this UK report: https://www.money.co.uk/mortgages/relocation-report
Austin is known for being sunny, warm, and “weird” and always has live music offerings
We love our home so much that we spend most of our time playing outside here but we do also enjoy exploring several different nearby Greenbelt/swimming spots as well as a creek that’s walking distance
We have several Bars, cideries, and breweries within a few miles of our home that offer adult beverages and are very kid friendly during daytime hours
We also enjoy exploring the nearby Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center which offers 100s of acres of garden space for playing/exploring
When I’m looking to explore something new I check out the daily family activities around town on this website: www.do512family.com
The space
4 bedroom, 3 bathroom plus giant upstairs playroom loft
Bedroom 1: master w/ king bed & private bathroom
Bedroom 2: twin bunk beds
Bedroom 3: full bed with attached shared bathroom
Bedroom 4: full bed with attached shared bathroom
Front porch is our favorite space- very large, covered, peaceful, lots of seating
Notes
Guests should feed/water chickens, goats, bunnies and cats daily. Chickens will pay you in daily fresh eggs and the others promise to put a smile on your face. If uncomfortable with this I may be able to get a neighbor to come by but it is a very simple and fun daily task :)

Neighbourhood
My neighborhood is in the middle of two creeks. The area feels remote and as if you’re “in the country” but it’s all of the city life amenities are within minutes. My house is in the center of the neighborhood but surrounded by trees and very secluded
