Welcome to The Backyard Collective: two private homes, one seamless Austin retreat.

The Space:
A private retreat designed for groups who want the luxury of space without losing the intimacy of connection. Two fully equipped homes, layered outdoor living areas, and carefully curated details create the feeling of your own boutique resort in the heart of Austin.
The Front House
Step inside to an open kitchen, dining area, and light-filled living room made for gathering. On the ground floor, you’ll find the primary suite with a king bed and ensuite bath, plus a stylish half bath for convenience. Upstairs are 3 more bedrooms - 2 with queen beds and 1 with twin beds - along with a shared full bath. A full kitchen, washer, and dryer finish out the home.
The Back House
Set just beyond the shared yard, the guest home offers its own full kitchen, living space, washer, dryer, and 2 bedrooms - one queen and one with twin beds - plus a full bath. It’s ideal for extended family or friends who want a bit of privacy while staying close. This home also has it's own washer and dryer, making this home completely self-sufficient.
The Shared Yard
Between the 2 houses, you’ll find the centerpiece of the property: a heated and chilled pool surrounded by lounge chairs, a gazebo with dining table and fans, a large outdoor TV, a gas grill, and a ping pong table. This is where mornings stretch long and evenings carry late.
The Back Garden
Behind the guest house, a second outdoor retreat awaits - complete with another grill, a picnic table, cornhole, and an outdoor shower to refresh after a swim. It’s the more casual side of the home, tucked away for quieter moments.
The Feel
With 2 full kitchens, double laundry setups, and outdoor living that balances energy with calm, The Backyard Collective was made for gatherings that flow with ease.
And for convenience, a Tesla EV charger is available at the front of the property.
