Positioned just steps from the energy of South Congress, this exceptional Travis Heights property is not just a home — it’s a proven, high-performing investment opportunity operating as an active Airbnb with two fully independent units and two private pools. Designed by award-winning architect Davey McEathron, the front residence offers striking contemporary design paired with strong rental appeal. The 5-bedroom main home features soaring ceilings, walls of glass, warm wood floors, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow that today’s guests and luxury renters seek. A rooftop deck and private backyard pool create a true resort-style experience, while the spacious upstairs flex space adds versatility for larger groups. Premium upgrades — including a whole-house generator, motorized shades, retractable awning, and EV charger — enhance both guest comfort and long-term asset value. The detached 2-bedroom, approximately 1,100-square-foot back house is its own standalone income-producing unit, complete with a private pool and rooftop deck. Thoughtfully designed for privacy and style, it offers an ideal setup for maximizing short-term rental revenue, hosting extended stays, or providing an owner’s lock-and-leave retreat while continuing to generate income from the primary residence. With two distinct units, two pools, multiple rooftop decks, and a coveted location in one of Austin’s most walkable neighborhoods, this property delivers rare flexibility: operate both as short-term rentals, live in one and lease the other, or create a multi-generational compound. Just moments from parks, trails, and the dining and nightlife of South Congress, this is an extraordinary opportunity to own a turnkey, income-producing asset in an A+ location.
