Getting lost in Austin is all the better when you have a home like this to return to. Cosy, stylish, and full of charm, this is a delightful base for exploring the city. It’s a short drive from Downtown Austin and it's located in Brentwood, on a peaceful plot that includes a shared garden with chickens – who wants fresh eggs in the morning? The house has been lovingly filled with art and trinkets from the owner’s travels, and designed with a modern lens on a vintage design – think wood floors and a moody-hued kitchen with pops of colour. There’s a renovated patio outside, with comfortable seating and a grill, though you’ll have plenty of local barbecue joints nearby too.
