Think of this house as a "modern at heart" blank slate. The canvas is there, now you just need to fill it up with some of your creativity and a couple of great pieces of furniture. And then there is the yard. that HUGE yard. The possibilities are nearly endless. Oh yeah, and the East Austin location is about as good as it gets.
Read MoreTwo things here. First, I call any home that isn't architecturally speaking "modern" but has a well designed space inside "modern at heart", and I LOVE them. Total sleepers from the street, but amazing inside. Number two, I am really loving the Cherrywood Neighborhood lately. Sleepy neighborhoods, with great houses, close to downtown, Mueller, and East Austin, and with a better price point than any of those neighborhoods.
Read MoreCome be my neighbor! The Waterstreet Lofts have a lot of good things going for it, but perhaps the two biggest (and most important) are price and location. You could probably hit Bufalina with a paper airplane from your balcony, and Weather Up, East First Groceries and Porfirio's are not much further away.
Read MoreI'm posting this house today, not because it's the most amazing "modern" home, but more to prove a point. I sometimes get people who love the homes they see on my website, but think they will never be able to afford one. Most don't want to live outside of Austin (where it is much more affordable). There are two choices then, buy a fixer upper (see my project) or get a house that has been flipped and is still decently affordable. Case in point, this little guy looks like it has had some decent work done to it. The deep Austin location isn't bad, at least you could get to Justine's easy. All that for under $200,000.
Price: $181,799
Details: 1,286 sq/ft, 3 Bed, 1 Bath
Read MoreI'm a big fan of these high end free standing condos that are becoming more and more common in areas like 78704. The important thing to look at is how well they are finished out on the inside. The grain matched kitchen cabinetry tells me that they probably didn't cut corners on this one.
Read MoreThis eye catching Mueller home has a lot going for it. It sits on a nice large lot close to East Austin, Mueller HEB and of course Manor road greats like Haymaker and School House Pub. The interior floor plan is wide open giving you lots of options, and the bright white interior is the perfect canvas to add your furniture to.
