The Space:

Thoughtfully designed for both connection and comfort, this modern Westlake home gives groups room to gather, work, celebrate, and spread out with ease.



The home’s two-level layout is especially well suited for group stays. The pool level offers a large, open gathering space with direct access to the pool and outdoor areas, while the upper level keeps the kitchen, dining room, and additional living space separate. A meeting, yoga session, workshop, or afternoon by the pool can happen downstairs while meals are prepared and the rest of the day continues upstairs.

You’re just a short drive from some of Austin’s most iconic dining, shopping, and live music:

All the energy of Austin is within easy reach, while you still get to return to a quiet, private setting at the end of the day. It’s the best of both worlds, exactly as it should be.



Getting Around:

Getting around is easy and convenient from this Westlake location, with quick access to downtown and Austin’s top destinations.



🚘 Driving & Rideshare

The easiest way to get around is by car or rideshare. Uber and Lyft are readily available and typically arrive within minutes, making it simple to head downtown, out to dinner, or back home after a night out.



📍 Key Distances

Downtown Austin: ~10–15 minutes

South Congress (SoCo): ~10–15 minutes

Zilker Park & Barton Springs: ~10 minutes

Austin-Bergstrom International Airport: ~20–25 minutes



🚌 Public Transportation

While Austin does offer bus service, it is limited in Westlake and not typically the most convenient option for getting around. We recommend rideshare or a personal vehicle for the best experience.



🚴‍♀️ Biking & Exploring

For those looking to explore the outdoors, nearby areas like Zilker Park and Lady Bird Lake offer great walking and biking trails once you’re in the central Austin area.
