The space Starry’s Studio is nestled behind a historic home on East Creek Street, one of Fredericksburg’s beautiful wide, tree-lined thoroughfares just off Main Street in what was once referred to as the town’s “Garden District.” The property’s main home was built in 1906 with an addition and connecting breezeway completed in 1951. The same year, home owner Walter Hayden (Ossie) Osbourn (No, not that Ozzy Osbourne.) built a separate structure behind the home for a workshop and smokehouse where he tanned leather, made furniture, smoked meats from his family’s ranch, and made homemade wines from mustang grapes, agarita berries and local peaches. Ossie’s daughter Melissa (Osbourn) Starry grew up in the house, and, after living in Austin and Houston for nineteen years, she took over the property in 1989 and moved back to Fredericksburg with her husband Ron Starry to raise their young daughter Sarah in this idyllic small town. That year, Ossie’s old workshop underwent its first major renovation when it became stylist and photographer Melissa’s hair salon and dark room. Melissa named her salon, Starry’s Studio, which was a popular local business for over a decade, welcoming such esteemed clients as Lady Bird Johnson. In 2000, the space was converted to Melissa’s art studio where she honed the painting and mixed media talent for which she has since won local notoriety and awards. In 2015 another big renovation began and today, one hundred and ten years after the original home was built, Melissa and Ron Starry are thrilled to welcome visitors to the newest iteration of Starry’s Studio, a luxury guest house in the heart of Fredericksburg. Guest access You will have a private entrance through wooden gate, with fenced off front terrace and private back deck overlooking Barrons Creek. There are no shared spaces.
