Read MoreThis is a truly unique home with an interesting history. Designed by architect John Watson in 1978, it is one of Austin's best examples of organic architecture. Watson studied under Frank Lloyd Wright in Taliesin in the 50's and worked on the Usonian houses, the Guggenheim Museum and the Marin County Civic Center.
John describes the Grotto Dome house like this. "The Grotto Dome on Spiller Lane in Austin was designed to complement and reflect a thousand-year-old rock formation in its glass facade. A recirculating waterfall cascades into a pool below the entrance deck creating an intimate exterior space equal to the interior of the structure itself. A 50 ft arched visor of unite cantilevers over the glass wall and protects the sitting area from sun and rain." via

Read MoreIt's true, when you see a 4 million dollar home you have pretty high expectations. I would love to see more of this home to see if it meets mine, but just for the shot above this is one worth sharing. That stacked limestone with huge windows and that amazing MCM wood stove absolutely kill me. What's your favorite part?

Read MoreLuxury real estate and modern architecture are not necessarily synonyms. However, when the two get together, the results can be amazing. The base material pallet on this modern home is to die for, with simple honest materials like walnut and stone used extensively. Don't even get me started on my love for board formed concrete.

Read MoreI love seeing houses that architects design for themselves. This particular gem was designed by architect William Clay Grobe in 1973, and he has been the only owner until now. I couldn't find much info about Mr Grobe online, but the little I did made it seem like he did mostly commercial work, which is a shame, because I'd love to see more homes like this one. I love the long roof overhangs and how well the wood siding and cement block has aged, almost matching each other in color. And that 1/4 acre lot. Swoon. The house does need a bit of updating, but it is a perfect location and perfect start to a very nice new home.
