About Asher House Austin

Asher Austin is located two blocks north of the University of Texas in quaint Hemphill Park, a long established residential neighborhood. Many houses in the area were built by UT faculty members. Hemphill Park continues to be a popular location.

The University of Texas is home to some of the top programs in the country in the College of Law, the College of Engineering, and the College of Communication as well as several others.

Other schools in the area include Austin Community College, Southwestern University in Georgetown, and St. Edwards University.

Our house has just been completely renovated and has the look and feel of a new home. We have six large bedrooms upstairs and three shared bathrooms. Downstairs there is a manager's office/bedroom suite, kitchen, dinning room, and living room. This is a "green" building with large solar panels to generate electricity for the house, large double-pane windows, high efficiency air conditioning and heating systems, and is well insulated. All Asher houses have high-speed Internet and flat screen televisions.

We now have seven off-street parking places which is a big advantage as parking is very tight near the university.

There is a Christian Science Organization on campus, and First Church Austin is conveniently located nearby.

Austin is well equipped for biking enthusiasts. The streets have bicycle lanes, and some local buses, but not all, have racks to carry your bike if you want to take it with you across town. There are fabulous hike and bike trails for mountain biking along the green belts of Barton Creek and other parks in town.

Austin is well known for its concern for the environment. Great protection is afforded to its natural spring fed pools, the most renown of which is Barton Springs, a quarter of a mile naturally occurring spring fed pool.

If you are interested in attending the University of Texas, or any other college or degree program in Austin, please call us at (512) 474-7727 and arrange to visit.
