Photos and Description of the Austin vacation house rental
House, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, Sleeps 6

You will love this beautiful, custom-built, fully-furnished contemporary home located in Crestview--a charming, 1960's era neighborhood. It is nestled in the heart of central Austin, where you will enjoy being just down the street from many local cafes and restaurants, as well as the famous Alamo Drafthouse--a movie theater and restaurant showing first run movies.

The Crestview neighborhood has lots of small town charm...our little shopping center looks like a tree-lined town square. The center boasts Crestview's own ''Little Deli''--it has a shady eating area where locals and visitors relax and enjoy great ''New York Style'' pizza and delicious sandwiches. The center also has a well-stocked grocery store, a pharmacy, dry cleaners, beauty salon and a barber shop.

The Anderson House is in a great location--you can be anywhere in Austin within 10-20 minutes.

Whether you are heading downtown to catch some live music on Austin's 6th Street, or going to a football game at the University of Texas, you can be there in no time.

Going downtown? Austin's new commuter train...the Metro (Crestview Station)...is only 5 minutes away and will take you downtown during the week or to the University of Texas.

There are lots of nearby retail stores, restaurants; Anderson House is only a few minutes to Austin's newest upscale, large shopping center, ''The Domain''.

Whether you want to sit and read a good book, surf the web or watch a movie on the 52'' Plasma, there's plenty of room for everyone to gather in the comfortable family room and large eat-in kitchen. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need--coffee-maker, microwave, side-by-side refrigerator, electric stove. It also has its own 26'' Flat Screen TV.

Just outside the family room is a cozy covered patio with a private garden where you can relax and grill your dinner on the gas grill. The patio has a table and chairs for outdoor dining.

The master bedroom has its own private bath with a beautifully tiled, large walk-in shower, double sinks and lots of custom cabinets. Bedrooms two and three have queen beds and share a large hall bathroom with double sinks and a tiled tub with shower. The bed linens are Egyptian cotton, the mattresses new and comfortable. The house is exceptional clean, lovingly-cared for, and well managed.

Anderson House is also perfect for people relocating to the Austin area and great for formal or casual entertaining. However, this is a family neighborhood, so please no loud music or parties.

The Anderson House has, since its construction (2009) been a VRBO; it has been a HomeAway/VRBO listing for that length of time and has a history of 5-star reviews; these were posted until the property came under new ownership necessitating a new listing.

Anderson House is the same quiet retreat nestled in the midst of one of Austin’s hottest neigbhorhoods; it is new and modern home with all the amenities and designer touches:

--52'' HD Plasma w/ Satellite and DVD

--26'' HDTV in Eat-In Kitchen

--Travertine Tile and Berber Carpet Throughout

--Designer Furnished in Modern Style & Colors

--Bathrooms w/ Tile and Granite (Shower/Tub)

--WiFi Broadband

--Gourmet Kitchen w/ Stainless Steel Appliances

--Egyptian Cotton Linens

--Cozy, Covered Patio w/ Gas Grill, Table & Chairs

--One (Mid-Size)Car Garage

Centrally Located, Minutes to:

--Downtown Austin & 6th Street

--Austin's Newest Shopping Mecca--''The Domain''

--Great Ethnic Cafes & Restaurants

--Close to Crestview Station & Austin's new Metro Train to 6th Street/Downtown/UT

About ChesLynn Browning

Hi, I am ChesLynn; Austin has been my home for over 30 years; I was reared in Fort Worth and graduated from TCU, but came to Austin in time to rear my daughters here. I got my graduate degree from Texas State and spent years in education until I took an opportunity with Dell in 1997. My husband and I live on 5 acres just minutes from downtown and love the Hill Country ambience and metro advantages that our life in Austin affords us. Our family feels blessed to call Austin home and to share this experience with Austin visitors.

ChesLynn Browning purchased this house in 2013
Why ChesLynn Browning chose Austin

Anderson House is an incredible property. When I discovered that the previous owners wanted to sell it and move on to other vistas, I jumped at the opportunity. I instantly fell in love with the quality of the design, the integrity of the construction, and the attention to detail that the previous owners invested in building and maintaining the Anderson House. Anderson House already had posted on this site 24 visitors' reviews dating back to 2009 (its opening) -- all with 5 star quality, so I knew that visitors experience the same appreciation for Anderson that I fell in love with. The Anderson House has been a natural choice; it is head and shoulders above all the other properties I reviewed before making a selection. I walked through the Anderson House and instantly knew this house provides the type of environment I want for my guests - I did not hesitate a moment. I invite you to share this experience with me.

What makes this house unique

The Anderson House provides a unique blend of a quaint neighborhood and ready access to the hip urban experience. That blend is what makes Austin so special. The Crestview neighborhood is both urban and serene. The house is nestled among spots that reflect this duality- the Crestview Amtrak station, Crestview shopping center with its famous little deli, Barlett's, La Fonda San Miguel and a plethora of restaurants of all ilks. The Domain and the Arborteum are at hand, Outlet Malls within a short drive, and it is only a quick hop to Sixth Street and Austin's live music scene, clubs, Townlake with all its trails and biking, UT university, and the downtown /South Congress venues. Everything happening in Austin is within close range of the Anderson House, and the real bonus is the house is so well-constructed, it is quiet and serene inside- you would think you were alone. Whether seeking solitude or excitement, the Anderson House provides the best of both worlds - for me it was an obvious choice; I hope it will be an obvious choice for you too.

Home away from home!

5 of 5
Submitted: April 24, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
This home away from home is equipped with everything you could possibly want in a vacation home, from an outdoor gas grill to a juicer! The house is beautifully decorated and the owner's pride shows throughout! The beds are comfortable, everything is neat and organized, and the outdoors is beautifully landscaped! The location is great and ChesLynn is spot on with any recommendations that she may offer-all close by and wonderful! We will be back for sure-this place is going to be hard to top! Thank you for a delightful stay! Pat & Codi Martin
Owner's Response: Codi and Pat, having you as guests was such a great treat for me. For you to allow me to share a part of your special time together has brought me a lot of joy.

As much fun as I get out of decorating and tending to the Anderson House; the greatest reward is the wonderful guests i meet.

I am looking forward to your next visit to Austin.

As ever I wish you many happy returns and much happiness in your life together,
ChesLynn

We have stayed in this house many times, and keep choosing it because it is perfect for our needs.  It is super clean, very comfortable, and nicely decorated.  We are a group of five, (sisters & Mom) and we love to cook most of our meals when we are together.  The kitchen has everything we need.  We also love to spend time relaxing and watching movies.  The living room has great seating and the large flat screen tv is great.  (There are also tv's in the bedrooms, which we haven't  used)  The two bathrooms are modern and spacious.  Another plus is the washer and dryer, and of course the dishwasher.  We also appreciate  the attached garage with garage opener.  
This house is part of the reason why we choose to keep doing our get togethers in Austin rather than other towns.  It is just perfect for our needs.  (and did I mention CLEAN?!)
There is even a kumquat tree in the back yard, which was such a neat find, as we had one in our backyard as children! 
The new owner of the Anderson house is just as wonderful to work with as the original owners.  We arrived a little earlier than expected and that wasn't a problem.   We look forward to many more stays at the Anderson house.

My wife and I just stayed in the Anderson house with our newly adopted newborn. At such an anxious and exciting time, it was a huge relief to stay in such a comfortable and peaceful home. The Anderson house had everythng we needed from a fully equipped kitchen to exceptionally comfortable beds. The house is extremely functional and the finishes are all high end. No detail is overlooked. The house sits on the edge of a large shopping area with many authentic restaurants just minutes away. ChesLynn is the most gracious, caring, and conscientious host one could ever hope for; including buying a pack 'n play so that our son would be comfortable in the house as well. We would strongly recommend the Anderson house for anyone looking for a special home away from home. Thank you ChesLynn!
Owner's Response: Supporting and enhancing the vacation experience of my guests as they visit Austin is one of the prime reason I wanted to join vacation rental as an owner. My friends that are owners have met such amazing guests, and I just knew that my own life would be enriched by sharing the Austin homeaway experience with others. Tim and his family have blessed me and the Anderson House immeasurably. Such a beautiful beginning to launch my ownership! ~ And such a great continuation of the superior experience that the Kelleys, as previous owners, provided guests.
