Sobremesa

Description

Welcome to the Sobremesa — Inspired by the Spanish tradition of lingering at the table long after the meal is done. Sobre Mesa is more than a stay. This beautifully curated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home in Abilene is designed for exactly that: slowing down, gathering together, and making memories. The Space From the moment you walk in, the warmth is undeniable. The open-concept living and dining area centers around a stunning white-painted brick fireplace with a live-edge wood mantle — the perfect backdrop for cozy evenings. The dining room seats 8+ at a solid wood farmhouse table set under a "Sobremesa" sign that says it all. The living room is stocked with seating for everyone — a large leather sectional, a pair of sage green armchairs with fluffy ottomans, and a leather recliner — all anchored by a plush deep terracotta rug that ties the whole space together. A flat-screen TV and driftwood console round out the room. The Bedrooms Bedroom 1 (Primary): King bed with a warm wood cane headboard, green velvet throw, and matching nightstands. Calm, earthy, and restful. Bedroom 2: King bed with a charcoal upholstered headboard, jewel-toned pillows, and a rust throw. Cozy and classic. Bedroom 3: A versatile daybed/twin setup (and trundle) in a bold black-and-white palette — perfect for a solo traveler, kid, or flex space. The Extras The built-in coffee & cocktail bar is a real showstopper — a sage green sideboard topped with a Keurig, drip coffee maker, French press, syrups, and stemware, all framed by floating wood shelves with your favorite spirits. Morning coffee or evening nightcap, it's all right here. A dedicated work desk nook with a snake plant and vintage brass lamp makes it easy to squeeze in a work session without sacrificing the vibe. The Location Situated in a quiet Abilene neighborhood close to shopping, restaurants, and schools, with easy access to everything the city has to offer. Whether you're in town for business, visiting family, or just need a beautiful home base — the Sobremesa House is ready to welcome you. Pull up a chair and stay a while.
