Built in 1894 by stonemason Robert Stanley, this registered historic landmark has undergone extensive renovations while still retaining its stately charm. Original stone walls? Yessir. Beautiful woodwork throughout? Yes ma’am. Updated kitchen and bathrooms? Yes, please!

The main house is comforting and warm, with three floors of beautifully designed flex living spaces, 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Bedroom 1 (1st floor) with 1 king size bed Bedroom 2 (2nd floor) with 1 king size bed Bedroom 3 (2nd floor) with 2 twin size beds Bedroom 4 (Ground floor) with 1 queen size bed Living space (Ground floor) with 1 queen sofa bed Do you want to feel special? The 5th room is in a small cabin on the patio out back, which has a queen bed and a full bathroom, not to mention a spacious lawn for reenacting your favorite duels at noon. Just outside the cabin, you’ll find a BBQ, a large dining table for enjoying some grub and a sitting area where you can hang out with your gang. Did we mention there’s a pool?! Jump in and cool off during those hot Texas summer (May - October) days. The Stanley is located just two blocks west of the South Congress entertainment district (did somebody say Torchy’s?!), as well as major Austin attractions. You won’t find an authentic Texas experience this close to downtown anywhere else. Registered both as a city and state landmark, The Stanley’s contemporary upgrades give you the best of both worlds. Traveling with your furry friend? We allow 2 pets as long as their combined weight is no more than 60 lbs. (Must sign a pet agreement, and there’s a fee per night. Certain breed restrictions apply.) If you’re looking for a stay that’s about as Texas as it gets, then come on in, y’all. This lavish historical estate will have you feeling like a cattle baron without having to spend like one. Step inside The Stanley and take a trip back in time. Don’t wait to reserve. Your retreat awaits! Guest Access: You’ll have full, exclusive access to the home and cabin. The Neighborhood: Hot off the press MUST DO in Travis Heights (from a local's perspective) 😉 \- Equipment Room Austin – Sip inventive cocktails in this sleek, hidden vinyl bar that’s perfect for date night. \- June’s – A stylish neighborhood café and wine bar with Parisian charm—ideal for brunch or people-watching. BEST DONUT! \- Maie Day – A lively steakhouse made for sharing bold flavors and festive vibes with friends. \- Continental Club – Step into Austin’s iconic live-music venue and catch a show like a true local. \- Lucky Robot – A fun and colorful Japanese spot where creative sushi meets South Congress energy AND, YES, TORCHY"S - the queso slaps! Getting Around: When the weather is pleasant, enjoy walking through the beautiful tree-lined streets of this eclectic neighborhood. You will find tons of shops and restaurants and some music venues on lively South Congress Avenue - less than a mile away. From South Congress Avenue, downtown Austin is just another mile north.
