About this property

Southern Charm, ideally located in Central Texas

Spend your vacation in this gorgeous and historic Greek revival home in charming Lockhart. One of the most prestigious and exclusive homes in Lockhart, this home was built in 1953 . It still has many of the original architectural features, but has been updated with some modern comforts. Known as the “Gambrell House”, this mid-century home was one of only two homes ever built by the respected commercial architectural firm, Page, Southerland and Page. This comfortable and spacious home is the perfect location to enjoy Central Texas and ideally located within 20-30 minutes of the Austin Airport, Circuit of the Americas, San Marcos Outlets, Austin, and San Antonio Riverwalk. Our lovely and historic town of Lockhart is known as the Barbeque Capital of Texas, but has much more to offer! Whether you are planning a family get-away, a ladies shopping weekend, or a couples retreat, let our home be your “home away from home”.

The Space- Our home is two stories and over 3,500 square feet. The upstairs has three comfortable bedrooms and two baths: A large master bedroom with a king-sized bed, walk-in closet, dressing room and private bathroom (shower) and two bedrooms with queen beds, large windows and a shared bath (bathtub). Our home has two TVs with cable and Wi-Fi. There is also a lovely sitting/reading area upstairs.

The downstairs area has an elegant formal dining room, kitchen, formal living room/study, and comfortable family room with plush seating. Both the formal living room and the family room have 2 additional pull-out sofa beds. There is a full downstairs bathroom (shower), a half-bath and a laundry room with a working washing machine and dryer. The family rooms open on to a serene porch and pergola with a fire pit to relax at the end of a long day. There is ample parking with a circle-drive on the side of the house. The yard has beautiful, well-established trees and an expansive yard. This is a pet-free home, non-smoking home. This house may not be suitable for children. We are happy to discuss a request for an exception. No parties or events are allowed without pre-arranged consent. Non-registered guests are not permitted to stay overnight.

Guest Access – The entire home is yours to enjoy, however, the garage and attic are restricted areas. The upstairs balcony is also restricted for the safety of our guests.

Interaction with Guests – We are proud of our town and our home. We want you to fully enjoy all that our area has to offer. We are guest-focused and will provide any suggestions or recommendations upon request. This is a private home rental and we will respect your privacy. However, we are a quick phone call away should you need anything during your stay.

The Neighborhood – This home is located on a quiet, residential street.

Excellent in every way
Five stars is not enough. Best VRBO we have ever stayed at. The host Julie is amazing, she accommodated our special requests around our F1 activities. House is immaculate, charming, and large. Julies’ special touches - fresh flowers, snacks, a stocked refreshment bar, did not go unnoticed! Bedrooms clean, well appointed and comfortable. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful and fine for walks in the evening. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Fabulous place to relax with family
Six of us stayed for a Friday wedding, and after party in Lockhart on Saturday. Many extras not usually at a Vrbo such as some snacks, drinks, plenty of blankets, towels, real plants. Allowed us to check in early to dress for the 4:30 Friday wedding. Responded promptly to all our questions. By far our favorite rental experience!
