The Graeber | Historic Mansion with Private Indoor Pool

Summary:

Downtown Austin Historic Mansion | 4,600 Sq Ft | Sleeps 12



Swim inside a downtown architectural legend 🤩



Located directly on iconic 6th Street, The Graeber blends 1880s stone walls with bold mid century modern design. Once a 19th century saloon, this one of a kind estate features a private indoor pool and 4,600 square feet of unforgettable space in the heart of Downtown Austin.



The Space:

BEDROOMS:

Bedroom 1: (2) Queen beds with private bath (upstairs)

Bedroom 2: (1) King Bed with private bath (upstairs)

Bedroom 3: (2) Double Sleeper Sofas with private bath (upstairs)

Bedroom 4: (1) Queen Sleeper Sofa with private bath (downstairs)

Think Andy Warhol meets Texas heritage.



This multi-level estate offers walkable access to Austin’s best restaurants, nightlife, and music venues while giving you a private retreat unlike anything else in the city.



Inside you’ll find:



• 4 spacious bedrooms

• Multiple living areas with dramatic architectural details

• Skylights and oversized windows for incredible natural light

• A private indoor swimming pool surrounded by travertine

• A suspended gourmet kitchen overlooking the pool

• Original mid-century design elements preserved throughout



The house features soaring white plaster walls over historic stone, red Elgin tile floors, mahogany details, and sculptural architectural moments you won’t find anywhere else. Upstairs suites offer privacy while overlooking either Sixth Street or the pool courtyard.



The 1980s pool addition expands the home with an indoor swimming experience that feels equal parts retro and luxurious. Whether you’re hosting friends, gathering family, or planning a special celebration, this home makes a statement.



Walk to:

• Texas State Capitol

• Downtown restaurants & bars

• Live music venues

• Convention Center

• Comedy clubs



This is not a cookie-cutter stay.

It’s a piece of Austin history — bold, artistic, unforgettable.



Guest Access:

Our guests will have access to entire home and guest house for their stay.



The Neighborhood:

You’re not just staying in Austin, you’re living right in the middle of the city’s most legendary strip. This is where the energy never stops: neon lights, live music spilling from every door, late-night eats, and Austin’s “Keep It Weird” spirit on full display.



🎶 Live Music Capital: Step outside and you’ll hear it — blues, rock, country, DJs, and street performers all up and down 6th Street. World-famous spots like The Parish, Esther’s Follies, and Flamingo Cantina are literally steps away.



🍹 Drinks & Nightlife: Whether you’re into rooftop bars (The Contemporary or Maggie Mae’s), craft cocktails (Midnight Cowboy, a hidden speakeasy), or dive bars (The Library, Casino El Camino), you’ll find it all within a block.



🍔 Late-Night Eats: Casino El Camino is a legend for 3AM burgers. Voodoo Doughnut keeps the party going with outrageous sweets. Or stumble into Iron Cactus for late-night Tex-Mex.



🌇 Daytime Fun: By day, walk just a few blocks to the Texas State Capitol, Lady Bird Lake trail, or Rainey Street for bungalow bars and food trucks. The Convention Center is also a short stroll away.



⚡ Festivals & Events: SXSW, ACL, and afterparties all bring the world to your doorstep. When Austin celebrates, 6th Street is the epicenter.



Staying here is like getting a VIP pass to Austin’s energy — the perfect base if you want to dive headfirst into the city’s nightlife, music, and culture.



Getting Around:

No car needed. You can walk to 100's of great places within just a few blocks. The light rail train is 3 blocks away if you want to tour outside of downtown Austin. If you do have a car, feel free to park in the two small cars garage attached to the home.



Other Things to Note:

Lodgewell, as a property management company, has a separate reservation agreement that is emailed to your personal email for digital signature upon booking. Please let us know if you would like to review in advance and we will happily share a copy.

- The Graeber is literally right in the middle of it all - this is super fun and super convenient, but NOT super quiet.

- The indoor pool is heated but it is NOT a hot tub, which is perfect for a refreshing swim.

This was my first time booking a property. The house and communication with the host was incredible. The location was also perfect for my needs. Although it is on 6th street, the noise did not bother us at all. The host included ear plugs just in case though. I cannot recommend them enough. I loved my stay there.

We had a blast staying at the Graeber! Such a unique experience. We walked around during the day and swam at night since the kids are too young for the nightlife. It was a wonderful way to give them an urban experience while feeling safe in the large fascinating home.

Great space

The house was really cool. And the bedding was really comfy. We had an issue with the dryer and the management company sent someone out to fix it right away. They were very responsive and communicative throughout the process. They clearly communicated the space was historic, eclectic, and amidst the loud and lively bars. We were not aware it was right around the corner from a homeless shelter that provided meals so there were some interesting and lively sights and sounds. All and all, everyone thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Awesome location, fun place

Great location right in the thick of dirty 6th and much more expansive than the listing pictures show made for a great spot for a bachelor's party. Don't count on going to bed early because the loud music from bars next door rattle the walls until 2am, but if you're staying here you're probably out at those bars anyway.

A+ location, unique space in the middle of Austin

The location is amazing - right in the middle of 6th street. Only word of caution is it's loud, but they do a great job of warning you of this before you finalize booking. If you're looking for a great spot right in the middle of it all, this is it. But you're right next door to bars and nightlife. Expect to stay up until they close and the music stops. Great spot for a large group to stay and enjoy Austin. We walked everywhere .

JUST RENT IT!!!!

I rented the house for my friends, family and I to celebrate my birthday and I can 100% say that words and even pictures will never do this place the right amount of justice. The house was ASTONISHING! The art and architecture were breathtaking! We had such an amazing time. The communication was also on point. Everyone who I spoke to was extremely nice and accommodating. I will be renting The Graeber House again very soon and HIGHLY recommend it! So worth it!

Unique place in the middle of the party!

This place is very cool as far as location and if you want to stay up all night partying and have a place to come that is a quick walk. It is loud...really loud so for partying this is the spot. For a quite nite of rest before 2am then you better pick another location. Great spaces and all the little things in the unit make it fun and easy. Love this place would stay again if we went to party all night!

ATX Holiday

We spent a great week at The Graeber House in Downtown, Austin. Our kids had a great time playing in the pool. Everything we suspected about the house from the info posted online was correct. We were able to deal with the neighborhood noise at night. Something to consider if quiet sleep at night is a must for you. Our flight was canceled the morning of our departure. We were able to catch a different flight that put us in after midnight. Our contact at the Graeber made all the adjustments needed to get us in the house at that late hour. All communications throughout the week were quick and sealmless. We felt like we were well taken care of and for that we're very grateful. We hope to return to The Graeber.

Christmas at Graeber house

My 4 adult children and I had a wonderful time at this property.!! They were working from home, there was plenty of private spaces for them to take meetings and plenty of room to have fun. Although it was sometimes a bit noisy staying downtown was a great experience. The people at lodgewell were fabulous. They did everything to make our stay comfortable..

Unique Home Unique Location !

You will find nothing like this home in Austin, and we have a lot of cool places to stay! Located on "dirty 6th" you step outside into the Austin music and party scene. Inside is a tranquil space with beautiful art and incredible lighting from skylights. But it is loud. They warn you that it's loud. You sign off that it's loud--and they mean it. Besides the music from the neighboring bars, after closing time, Austin cleans up after itself... and has street cleaners (think leaf blowers) after the partiers leave. BUT - they provide ear plugs and you can sleep late to enjoy this incredible space. They have Sonos throughout home - you put on your own music in the evening and control via several speakers - it's awesome! communication was great - service was great! And for being right on 6th, I was worried passer byers would try to get in ... people don't even notice the gate (which has a coded locked). I had more people try to walk into a unique homefront in Alpine Tx, than we did down here. :-)
