Here’s a clever little ADU in South Austin. It takes advantage of a zoning loophole and a large lot to add a 300sf “casita” adjacent to the 1,100 sf ADU. The two are connected by a courtyard and make the whole thing much more livable than that standard sized ADU. It even has a huge back yard making it even closer to a single family home.

Price: $775,000

Details: 1,400 sf, 3 Bed, 4 Bath

4512 Mount Vernon #1

Despite an unnecessarily busy facade (really, three material types?) I appreciate the simple flat roof on this one. In a world of farmhouse modern and some of the other trends still happening it’s good to remember that less is more.

6305 Capriola

Sadly it’s becoming harder and harder for find any decent single family home for under a half a million in Austin these days. That’s why even though this one isn’t particularly exemplary it’s still a much needed breath of fresh air. We need about 100 more of these please.
