Property Description
Established Airbnb. Minutes from Texas State University. Fully furnished and ready for its next chapter. This 1930s San Marcos home has operated as a successful short-term rental for approximately 10 years under the name "Hidden Gem Near Historic Downtown," with a history of bookings throughout every season of the year. Offering nearly 1,300 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and multiple dining areas, the home sits on approximately a quarter-acre shaded by mature trees. Fresh interior and exterior paint, a durable metal roof, new stove, approximately 3-year-old kitchen appliances and five new double-pane windows across the front add to its appeal. The wide covered front porch offers plenty of room for tables and chairs, while the deep covered back porch provides another inviting space for guests to relax. Outside, you'll also find covered carport parking, a fenced dog area and a spacious storage shed with electricity. The home is being offered fully furnished, including the washer, dryer and guest grill, making the transition especially convenient for an investor. Location is a standout - approximately 5 minutes to Texas State University or about a 15-minute walk, with local favorites including Palmer's, North Street and Zelick's also within walking distance. Continue its use as a short-term rental, transition to a long-term rental, or make it your own San Marcos home. This property offers options from day one. Want a closer look?
