You know I'm always a sucker for a black house. There is just something so dramatic about them. This one comes by way of Hatch Works who have built quite a few similar homes on the east side. The dark motif carries inside as well, but manages to do it without feeling to dark and moody.
Price: $849,000
Details: 2,244 sq. ft. 4 Bed, 4 Bath
Read MoreThis detached condo is a handsome example of good infill. I love the overall shape of the building and it has some nice detail. Lot's of good natural light on the inside and plenty of extra deck space too. There are a few questionable choice though like those floors and tile countertops (who does that still?). All that being said, the price per square foot on these is a steal!
Price: $415,000

Read MoreRight now I'm sitting in a luxury marketing class at South Congress Hotel and it's got me craving a bit of affordable modern. Unfortunately in Austin's housing market it doesn't get much more affordable than this. This 1953 home has been thoughtfully remodeled and (and well staged) and is ready for a new owner.
Price: $350,000
Details: 1,128 sq. ft. 3 Bed, 2 Bath
Read MoreYou don't see a lot of mid century modern homes in East Austin, mostly because the homes here were built earlier, but this one is just far enough east and north to have been built later. While the photos aren't the best, it looks like the remodel that was recently done was. I love a good moody mid century home.
Price:$324,900
Details: 1,349 sq. ft. 4 Bed, 3 Bath
Read MoreI love these little SOL houses. They are probably one of the best deals in East Austin these days. They used to be thought of as deep east Austin, and while they are still not super close to all the action they are much better than they used to be.
Price: $375,000
Details: 1,192 sq. ft. 2 Bed, 2 Bath
Read MoreThis "urban farmhouse" reminds me more of the suburban homes of my rural childhood than anything I associate with urban. Despite the relatively traditional architecture the detailing and finish out on this home are very nice. It just goes to show how much those little details matter.
