The layout works for hosting. This 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home, built in 2001, sleeps six comfortably. The updated kitchen has new granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and island seating for shared meals. Fiber internet, a dedicated workspace, and a washer and dryer suit longer stays and remote workers. A newer roof, HVAC system, and water heater keep upkeep predictable.

Outside, a fenced backyard with a patio gives guests room to unwind, and raised garden beds are ready for planting. A front porch faces the street, and the driveway holds two cars with free street parking out front.

The location drives bookings. Q2 Stadium, The Domain, the Arboretum, UT, and downtown are all an easy drive, with quick access to MoPac and Research Blvd. Burnet Road is around the corner with local restaurants, coffee shops, and Highland Lanes. The home sits in Wooten, a mid-century North Central Austin neighborhood named for longtime Austin physician Dr. Goodall Wooten, close to the site of the 1954 Air Conditioned Village, where Austin tested central air in American homes.
