About this Recovery Home
Heartwood Recovery - Carnarvon Lane is a men's sober living home in Austin, Texas, in Travis County, on Carnarvon Lane in South Austin.
A Men's Sober Living Home on Carnarvon Lane
This residence serves men transitioning out of formal treatment, run by Heartwood Recovery as a bridge between structured care and independent living. Carnarvon Lane sits in South Austin, a residential area within reach of the city's outpatient providers and public transit.
Structure Built Around Accountability
Residents follow mandatory abstinence policies backed by regular drug testing, along with house meetings and group activities that keep the household connected day to day. Relapse prevention education and both individual and group counseling run alongside the housing itself.
Employment and Life Skills as Part of the Program
Heartwood Recovery builds employment assistance and life skills development directly into its sober living program. That combination treats a job search as part of recovery, which matters for a resident whose last stable job predates their time in treatment.
An Accredited Operator
Heartwood Recovery holds Joint Commission accreditation and LegitScript certification, both third-party reviews of a treatment provider's practices and safety standards. Those credentials apply to the operator's clinical practices as a whole, separate from certification through Texas's voluntary sober living registry, and they are still a meaningful check for a family evaluating the program from out of state.
Recovery Housing in Travis County
Austin is the seat of Travis County and the anchor of Central Texas, with a dense network of outpatient clinics, employers and transit that reaches most of the city. A South Austin address keeps residents close to that network while living in a quieter residential setting than downtown.
