SOL doesn't get as much attention as Agave despite the similarities, but it's got plenty of good stuff despite it's much smaller size. This house is a good example of what SOL has to offer. Smaller than Agave homes and though not really much cheaper, it still looks like a pretty good deal based on it's closer in east Austin location. Also, hats off to the owners of this one for a solid furniture collection. I'd almost forgotten how good that DCM looks.

Don't judge a house by it's size. This 850 sq. ft. casita by Architect Jen Weaver has a whole lot of action smartly packed into a small space.  The price per square foot is high, but I'd say this house is setting a pretty high bar for accessory houses. Besides the great design, this house also happens to be right in the heart of one of my favorite neighborhoods in Austin.

This house has been for sale for a bit over a month, but a hefty price reduction make it worth a second look.  It's also a really great example of how to update and expand an old home. In 2009 this was a 850 sq. ft. house built in 1951. Thanks to some handy work by architect Richard Weiss it's now more than double that, and handsome as ever.

1604 Navasota : KRDB

I had the pleasure of walking through this house a few months ago when they were still finishing up the construction. I was very impressed then, and even more so now. This Chris Krager designed and built home if full of thoughtful design and nice details. I'm always super critical of custom cabinetry, and theres a lot of it in this house. Happy to say I didn't have a bad thing to say about it. Is it crazy to have an $800k house on the east side? Crazy maybe, but it's the new reality, especially for architect designed homes like this one.

This quirky little deep east Austin house is more than meets the eye. The head on view from the street looks like a small simple shed roofed house, but a closer look shows that the home spreads out and down as the hill falls away. The combination of the interesting house, amazing yard make this one a solid contender.
