About the home
One of two homes side by side, with its own entrance, kitchen and backyard. The living room sits under a dramatic red tray ceiling, with globe pendants and a mix of neon, photography and cherry blossom branches. The open kitchen and living area lead out to a backyard with a gas grill and fire pit, and that backyard is not fully fenced. Pets are welcome, and the second home can be booked alongside it.

The space
Unit B is a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home sleeping up to 10, with its own entrance, kitchen, living area and backyard.
The ground floor sets the tone. The living room is built around a dramatic red tray ceiling, fluffy globe pendants and an eclectic mix of art: Asian-inspired photography, neon signs, cherry blossom branches and a Buddha bust that somehow all works together. The kitchen is fully equipped, with a large center island that seats 4, a gas range, stainless appliances and teal subway tile throughout.
Also on the ground floor: a primary bedroom with 2 queen beds and a private ensuite bathroom, plus a half bath off the main living area. Upstairs there are 2 more bedrooms, one with a king, a painted ceiling accent and tree views on 2 sides, and one with 2 queens done in a retro red-stripe theme with cassette tape and camera art. A shared full bath and an in-unit washer and dryer finish the floor.
Out back, a gravel patio sits under a covered wood-ceiling overhang, with a gas grill, fire pit and seating.
Guest access
Unit B and its backyard are yours. Unit A, Unit A's backyard, the driveway and the garage are not included and should not be used.
A few notes
The backyard is not fully fenced. Do not let your pet off leash, as they can get out.
This is a quiet residential neighborhood, so no parties, loud gatherings or disturbances. Keep noise at a reasonable level during the day, and after 10pm no sound should carry beyond the property line. That is a City of Austin rule and we enforce it.
No smoking anywhere on the property.

The neighborhood
Near Manor Road and East 6th.
Unit B sits in East Austin's MLK neighborhood, a well-established and genuinely local part of the city. Downtown is a short drive, Mueller is close by, and the airport is an easy run out.
Food and drink are the reason people stay here. Micklethwait Craft Meats for barbecue, Jacoby's for ranch-to-table dinner on the Colorado River, Contigo for a patio night, and Este for coastal Mexican. East 6th and Manor Road are both close for bars, coffee and whatever else the group is up for.

I liked the accommodation of it all .. the house felt comfortable and very homey ..
The parking situation .. we had to share parking with the unit besides us and that wasn't informed until the place was purchased

Place looked just like the pictures and perfect size for the six of us. This is a duplex so parking is shared in the driveway. On B side instructions stated to park under the carport and another car can fit behind. Additional cars had to park on the street. If you’re traveling with family and friends and it’s more than two cars, be prepared for street parking. The house was clean and spacious. The kitchen was stocked with silverware, plates and cups. The only problem we had were guests who were staying on A side synced their phone to our tv and we had exit out of it twice. Not a real problem, just a small annoyance especially if you’re into a good show which we were. Not sure if the TVs can be named so guests can know which TV to sync to. Overall, our experience was enjoyable and comfortable.

Amazing host and amazing house to match. Celebrated a birthday weekend with some friends and this home was the perfect place to gather and enjoy the city. Very responsive and accommodating host. Will definitely be back!
