Welcome to The Artbnb Residency, a one-of-a-kind Sunset Valley retreat brought to life through custom art by Morgan Allis. This 4-bedroom, 3-bath home features two king suites, a private pool and hot tub, and a full wellness zone with gym, sauna, and cold plunge. Surrounded by original works from an internationally exhibited artist, every space tells a story. Close to the Barton Creek Greenbelt and downtown Austin, it’s a pet-friendly sanctuary made for inspired group getaways.
Tucked beneath a canopy of oaks, this Southwest Austin retreat blends Hill Country character with refined design. The wide front porch sets the tone - welcoming and timeless, ideal for slow mornings or golden-hour evenings. Inside, original artwork by Morgan Allis pairs with layered textures and natural materials, creating a home that feels both gallery and getaway.
✦ Foyer: Step through the coral door to hardwood floors, a hand-carved staircase, and a copper-tone coffered ceiling glowing under a chandelier. The arched doorway offers a first look at the home’s curated art.
✦ Fireside Lounge: To the right of the foyer, wood-beam ceilings, sunlit windows, and a brick fireplace create a refined, relaxed setting. Leather seating and colorful accents invite conversation or quiet evenings after exploring Barton Creek Greenbelt or downtown Austin.
✦ Dining Room: Across the hall, a wood table for eight sits beneath large windows with yellow accent chairs adding playful contrast. The open flow connects easily to the kitchen for effortless entertaining.
✦ Kitchen & Breakfast Nook: The galley-style kitchen features open shelving, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse sink framed by light. Beside it, a window-lined nook for four opens through French doors to the patio, linking indoor and outdoor living.
✦ Media Lounge: Off the kitchen, this casual den offers a sectional sofa, Smart TV with Netflix, Disney+, ESPN+, Hulu, and more - plus a wet bar with tiled backsplash - ideal for movies or game nights.
✦ Garden King Suite: In the rear corner, this private suite opens to the porch and pool area. A king bed with luxury linens and vibrant tones creates a warm, restorative feel.
✦ Main Level Baths: Two full baths serve the main floor - one with a double vanity and walk-in shower, the other with a pedestal sink and tub-shower combo.
✦ Loft Retreat: Up the Media Lounge stairs, the loft includes two queen beds beneath a sloped ceiling with pool views - a bright hideaway for families or friends.
✦ Upstairs Bedrooms & Bath: From the foyer staircase, the Upstairs King Suite offers a king bed and workspace, while the Queen Suite pairs built-ins and a writing nook. A shared full bath with a tub-shower combo and open shelving completes the floor.
✦ Luxe RV Guesthouse: Parked just steps from the main house, our fully hooked-up RV extends the experience with a bright living area anchored by a reclining armchair, and an electric fireplace beneath a pop-up Smart TV. A sculptural pendant light crowns the quartz-style island with double-sink, while a residential-size fridge, five-burner gas range, microwave, and wine cubbies turn meal prep into part of the fun. A window-lined dinette sits beside leafy Hill Country views. At night, a slide-out king bedroom and lofted queen bed sleep four in hotel-quality linens. Two private baths each offer glass-door walk-in tile showers and vessel sinks, so no one waits for a turn inside the main home.
✦ Poolside Patio & Hot Tub Lounge: Step from the main hallway onto your private covered patio - a shaded lounge that connects seamlessly to the backyard and pool. Around the corner, a hot tub beneath a canopy of trees offers the perfect evening unwind after a swim. Designed for laid-back outdoor living, this space combines comfort and calm in true Austin style.
✦ Pool Lounge & BBQ Terrace: Just beyond, the fenced pool area feels like a private resort, complete with loungers for sunbathing and colorful picnic tables for outdoor meals. A dual BBQ setup - one gas grill and one flat-top griddle - keeps every meal social, from grilled dinners to breakfast tacos by the pool.
✦ Wellness Retreat: Past the pool, follow a short path to your private open-air gym. It’s outfitted with free weights, a bench press, a punching bag, and more - ideal for energizing mornings or stress-free afternoons. Nearby, a full-size cedar sauna and cold plunge tub turn post-workout recovery into a spa-level ritual.
✦ Pet-Friendly: Bring your pups along - up to two small dogs are welcome. Thoughtfully designed for comfort and convenience, the home’s layout and fenced outdoor areas make it easy to relax with your furry companions.
