Paul's room

Super Unique and Modern ‘House’ with Perfect Central Austin Location.

Note 1: This unit is extremely unique, so a lot of the conventional terms to describe regular properties don’t neatly apply.

Note 2: If this listing is up, then it’s still available.


The Room: The available room is a loft that measures ~8x6 ft.

While it’s a fairly snug spot, you’d be surprised how much stuff you can fit into it (my 6’7“ friend found it to be really cozy).


I have a very comfortable foldable mattress/chair (easy to wash) available for free if you don’t have a mattress + a lamp.


Beautiful neighborhood view in summer. Beautiful city view in winter. It’s technically on the third floor, so you can really see a lot.

The Property: 2 Bedroom / 1 Bathroom (with a tower) that’s built on the second floor of a small, separated garage.

At ~750 Sq Ft, it’s a relatively small unit, so not for someone who requires a ton of space.

Key Features: Beautiful, Large Patio. Real Wood Floors and Granite Table Tops. Awesome Shower with Beautiful View. Very Safe and Private Spot. Cute, lovable chickens in front (no roosters). Best Washer and Dryer I’ve ever used.

Vaulted Ceilings found throughout the unit (including the loft) give it the feeling of being very open and spacious. 
 Tons of Natural Light (there are 15+ windows!) They are placed in a way that prevents anyone nearby from looking into the unit—except via my room, but I always keep that window shut).

Stainless Steel Appliances (large gas powered oven/stove–a perfect kitchen if you enjoy cooking).

Lots of Storage Space (except for very large items like couches, standing-desks, large bookshelves, etc.)

Perfect location. We are less than a mile away from Zilker Park/Springs, and within walking distance of lots of cool coffee shops, bars, venues, etc. It’s a decent walk to the main “downtown party area”—perhaps 15-30 mins—but still, I usually walk home after a night out downtown.



This is a perfect spot if you’re looking for an awesome place to stay for a few months while you get acclimated to the city and start looking for a place to settle down for the long-term.

Some Things to Note:
 —PETS— YES Pets = Small and well-groomed dogs. Retiles, Fish, Plants, and Pet Rocks.

NO Pets = Large/long haired dogs. Cats (unless they are kittens and you plan to stay no longer than 4 months), Wild Animals, Large Snakes, and Spiders,

Climbing up and down the stairs is a little tricky in the beginning, but you’ll be flying up and down them once you get use to the ladder (I only ask that you put the ladder against the wall if you plan to be gone for a long-time).



Despite the unit existing on top of a small garage, there is no dedicated parking. So you must park on street (virtually never fills up completely).



Payment Info: $1350 to move in. Payments will be month to month via Zelle, Cash App, Venmo, or Crypto (perhaps other options if those won’t work for you).

Absolutely no checks, gift-cards, cash, or weird schemes where I have to send you money in order to get your rent.

Please provide 1 month notice that you’ll be leaving if/when you do (or Karma will come for you). I will try my best to give you a 60 day notice if/when you must leave).

I’m a single, 32yo male, currently working as a software engineer/product owner.

I’m also a singer-songwriter and play shows around Austin.

I love art and science, as well as dancing, and the natural wold.

I’ve been living here for almost 2 years now.

I’m a pretty laid-back person, but do like to have the common area free of clutter (I’m not gonna lose my mind if there’s dishes in the sink for a couple days, or something got left out, or w/e though). 


Some expectations: Try to keep it down if you have a “special someone” over.


You’re welcome to bring friends over anytime and they are welcome to crash on the couch / extra mattress if they can’t make it home (note: I might have a buddy over on occasion, but I am not a big social butterfly with like a constant rotation of ppl coming in/out, if you are, then that’s fine, but just keep it reasonable). 


I enjoy playing music on occasion—sometimes loudly, so if you’re in the unit a lot, then you’ll have to deal with it here and there (I can provide ear plugs if needed).

I do a lot of the cleaning, but would like you to contribute here and there (what you do with your personal space is totally up to you). 


Please don’t go into my room without asking first and I will extend the same curtesy to your room.

None of the doors have locks, so please knock if you think someone is in the bathroom—and please shut door (at least partially) when you use the toilet.

While there’s a dishwasher, I refuse to use it out of principle, and would encourage you to do likewise (“If we can’t live without dishwashers, then how will we ever live without cops?”)

If you smoke, that’s fine–just please do it on the patio.
