2813 Crest

It's crazy to see East Austin development keep pushing farther and farther east. I look at Crest street two years ago when I was looking for land to build on. The views are AMAZING but I felt like it was just too far out. Somehow, it seems a lot more reasonable now. I'm glad to see that the developer did a good job on the house too. Sure you can nitpick some of the interior (please developers, stop with the mosaic tiles) but overall it's a great space in a great location.

This one tried to sneak on while I was in Mexico, but not before I was able to get a client in to look at it. If you're just seeing it now for the first time, you're too late. Multiple offers on this one, and offers are due today. We probably should have talked sooner.

Great work as always from Alterstudio.

I'm always excited to see some quality looking new construction in East Austin. This project by Forsite Studio is following the latest hot trend of modern barn houses. One thing I love about this trend is the more traditional house shape makes for a less glaring contrast to neighbors houses when used as infill. The tall form also allows for some really nice interior spaces that show off the volume. This particular unit has taken good advantage of that with double height ceilings in areas and balcony views from the top floor down to the first floor.

Remember what I was just saying yesterday about heading deeper east? Here is another great example of pushing the boundaries. This Austin Energy 5 star rated home was designed by Camille Jobe AIA and looks like some very well detailed work. I really like the use of plywood on the walls, inside. The detail is a nice complement to the hardy panel exterior and makes for a cohesive look throughout.

The days of affordable housing in East Austin have come and gone. These days price per square foot in the 02 is about on par with it's older brother 78704. If you are willing to push a bit farther than the buzz however, things get a bit better. This new construction would easily be $100k more expensive if it was a bit closer to I35. Lower prices don't mean lower quality however. In fact the details on this one are quite good.

This one has eclectic East Austin charm written all over it. The 600 sq/ft front house was built in 1900 and the modern house connected behind it adds another 1,400. It's always nice to see someone persevere the original structure and add to it. It looks like a lot of attention was paid to the outdoor spaces as well.
