Now this is how you remodel a townhouse. There were some good bones to start with, high ceilings, fireplace etc. Not only did they not cheap out on the finishes, they even went high end (Miele) on the appliances. Not something you see in this price point very often.

Read More5 years ago I would have hated this house. Now with a little more world travel under my belt I have to admit I have a soft spot for the Santa Fe style. I especially love the outdoor courtyard and pool, but even the interior spaces are great. Big bright and open, just the way I like it.

Read MoreI love anything by Alter Studio and this 2013 build certainly doesn't disappoint. Besides the amazing architecture and interiors it also has landscaping by Mark Word. Really people, with the combo you just can't go wrong.

Read MoreI guess it's pretty hard to call this mid century when it's from the 80's. Either way, I love these big Texas ranch homes. This one is in the perfect goldilocks spot too, not to far out of town, not too close in. The pool is just icing on the cake.

Read MoreI call a lot of 60's ramblers "mid century modern" but this looks like it is the real deal. Just like today the difference between the real deal and imitation is often the involvement of an architect. In this particular case it was apparently Kuehne, Kuehne and Milburn. I love all the original drawings that they still have of the house, though the lack of interior photos tells me it may need a little work. My favorite part? The note that says "Price as per this sketch $21,300". Sigh, I can't even get my landscaping done for that now...

Read MoreThe Northwest Hills area is one of my favorite suburban neighborhoods in Austin. It used to be a great place to get a sub $500k mid century house. Unfortunately prices have gone up since then. Luckily there are still relatively reasonably priced gems like this. Sure it's got some quirkyness (that kitchen!) but I see lots of potential here.
