Welcome to The Birdhouse a Mid-Century Modern Craftsman charm meets proven short-term rental performance in this permitted Fredericksburg STR. Situated on a corner lot, this 1,030 square foot home offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and an average annual occupancy of approximately 80% with consistent 5-star guest reviews. Easy jaunt to main street. The covered front porch sets a relaxed tone before you step into a light-filled living space with beadboard ceilings and well-placed windows. The layout flows easily into a thoughtfully renovated kitchen featuring striking blue tile walls, open shelving, stainless appliances, and a dedicated makeup area — a detail guests repeatedly highlight. Two bedrooms are positioned for privacy, and the full bath includes an updated walk-in shower. The scale feels efficient and intentional, designed for comfortable weekend stays or extended visits. Outdoors is where this property truly differentiates itself. A wood-decked cowboy pool anchors the backyard, offering a refreshing retreat during warm Hill Country afternoons, while a separate spa creates an inviting evening experience. The fenced yard defines distinct lounging areas and enhances the guest experience. Fredericksburg continues to draw visitors year-round with over 50 wineries and tasting rooms, outdoor destinations like Enchanted Rock, historic attractions, boutique shopping, and a vibrant food scene. Located just over an hour from San Antonio and within a few hours of Austin, this is an accessible getaway market with sustained demand. For buyers seeking an income-producing asset with an established operating history — not a startup project — this property offers immediate opportunity in one of Texas’ most visited destinations. All furniture and items remain. Seller Gross '23 (1/2 year due to remodel) = $37,683 Seller Gross '24 = $60,305 Seller Gross '25= $56,887
