Every city has its strength when it comes to architectural vernacular, and Austin’s is definitely ranch houses with stacked limestone facades. It’s quintessentially Texas and when the interiors are thoughtfully updated like this house, it’s perfection.

Read MoreBack in the 60’s and 70’s these South Austin neighborhoods were affordable suburbs near the city. While price points have soared since then (these homes sold for $200k just 15 years ago) it’s about as close as we get in Austin to an affordable family home. Nice simple honest updates all around on this one.

Read MoreI appreciate how architect Davey McEathron manages to design attractive houses that don’t look like every other modern infill. But as good as the architecture is on this South Austin home, it’s the interiors that really get me excited. It’s definitely in a lane, so you probably love it or hate it.

Read MoreHere’s a nice clean simple ADU designed by North Arrow Studio. It’s got a great location and price point and could be just about as cheap as architect designed homes come in Austin these days.

Read MoreI’m really enjoying this updated 70’s home near Sunset Valley. It’s a really good example of keeping things simple, focusing on finishes and bringing in just the right amount of “pop” in the kitchen and bathrooms.
