About this property

Museum District Extraordinaire combining Old World Elegance with Modern Luxury

Tasteful elegance and charm at every turn in this truly healing environment in the heart of the Museum District. This excellent location is within walking distance to the best Houston has to offer including the Museum of Fine Arts (MFA), the Contemporary Art Museum (CAM), Hermann Park, Butterfly Museum, Planetarium, restaurants, and music venues. It is 1.5 Miles to the Texas Medical Center and a few blocks to the Metro Rail. It is a perfect property for business travel or an urban getaway.

The space is a multi-level open design that is rich with old world and modern day luxury and comfort. Guests often comment that the unique lighting, furniture, and art have inspired them in unexpected ways and has spawned new ideas and creativity. The three distinct sitting/dining areas can be used for personal space, business meetings, or intimate gatherings. Each bedroom has an outside feature as well as a large deck off the living room. Wood burning fireplaces in the master bedroom and living room create warmth and ambiance.

It has a large wood deck shaded by huge oak tree and a fenced in gated dog run at the street level.

This property is in a safe and beautiful neighborhood with great neighbors and is ideal for long stays.

Everything and more
We needed a place to stay for a month while my wife recovered from cancer treatment. Everything was perfect about this place. The owner was kind and very responsive. The neighborhood was perfect location with parks and museums close by. It was the perfect place to heal, relax and recover. Being three levels it has lots of stairs which actually assisted in her recovery and kept us all in shape. We need to return again in the months ahead for a couple of weeks for follow up treatment and plan to stay here again. This place is everything and more.

Wonderful home and stay!
We stayed in this home while our son received medical treatment. The hosts were welcoming, informative and generous. The house is lovely and comfortable. It is located close to the museums and central to most things. The house is clean, and the neighborhood is safe. The neighbors were kind and friendly as well. We will definitely love to stay here again!

Great house & wonderful location!
Such a beautiful home! We stayed here for a couple months while my father received treatment at MD Anderson. Very spacious and a perfect location for family to come and visit during our stay. Having the museums and zoo within walking distance was perfect! So much to see and do while also being able to relax and rest. Home is also close to some pretty descent restaurants. Beds were very comfortable, high end appliances and furniture. The attached garage and front deck was also a great bonus! Neighborhood is lovely and pretty quiet, neighbors were also very friendly. Shelly & Jennifer were so helpful any time we needed anything! Very responsive! They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. We would definitely stay here again!

Nice house in a great area
This is a great house in the museum district of Houston. The street is quiet and the neighborhood is gorgeous. MFA, MNS, CAM, Cullen Sculpture Garden (with the Bean), Hermann Park, and McGovern Centennial Park are all in walking distance (furthest is .8miles away). You can take a short ride by car to the zoo or the Children’s Museum. The Medical Center is just a hop, skip and a jump away. Incredible shopping area in Rice Village or travel over to the galleria. So many wonderful culinary experiences around this abode as well. Working with Shelly & Jen has been super simple and they are great with communication. A wonderful house (and owner) for any 30+days stay!

Back to Houston
Our second time at this lovely townhome. The place is so clean and elegantly appointed while still feeling cozy. It is set in a lovely, convenient and friendly neighborhood. The outside patio spaces are amazing. It feels like our own home away from home. Additionally, the owner is sweet and accommodating and easy to reach. We love Bartlett! ❤️
