2315 E 11th

It's hard not to love a house as well decorated as this one. Besides being full of MCM goodness (Womb chair, Eames LCM and hang it all, Nelson lamp and eye clock and that's just one room!) the home has some solid finishes too. I love the kitchen with it's marble countertops, grain matched cabinets and the pop of blue in the tile. The rest of the house is equally tasteful with quality finishes as well. It's interesting that they don't include any great shots of the front of the house. Don't let that fool you though, I've seen it and it's quite nice.

This little East Austin home is sort of like the older brother of modern infill on the east side. It was built in 2009 when things where in the early stages of ramping up over here. I've walked past this home several times in the past, and it's a total sleeper from the street. It sits quietly nestled behind a fence, with a nice private yard. Inside is a nice blank slate. White walls, dark floors and some nice finishes. The price seems quite reasonable compared to the majority of other overly inflated east side prices. This one will go quick.

1203 Holly

While it seems crazy to see house prices in East Austin pushing over the half a million dollar range it is good to see homes like this on the market. First, the Holly neighborhood is pretty much my favorite East Austin location. It's close to the lake, and the Cesar Chavez corridor makes it feel a bit isolated (in a good way) from the rest of East Austin. All this while being incredibly close to both downtown, and East 6th. This particular home is rare for a few reasons, first, it's not some bland faux modern infill, but it's also over 2,000 square feet, something hard to come by in the area. The interior has been very nicely updated as well. All this for a fairly typical east side updated price of around $300 a square foot.

Think of this house as a "modern at heart" blank slate. The canvas is there, now you just need to fill it up with some of your creativity and a couple of great pieces of furniture. And then there is the yard. that HUGE yard. The possibilities are nearly endless. Oh yeah, and the East Austin location is about as good as it gets.

1601 E Cesar Chavez #303 : Waterstreet Lofts

Come be my neighbor! The Waterstreet Lofts have a lot of good things going for it, but perhaps the two biggest (and most important) are price and location. You could probably hit Bufalina with a paper airplane from your balcony, and Weather Up, East First Groceries and Porfirio's are not much further away.
