Unlike the last two houses I posted, there is no imagination needed to see what a great house this is. The only imagination you need is to try and figure out what this thing look liked when it was built in 1981. Yep, 1981. I had to check that build date twice. It looks like someone hit it out of the park with this modern Rollingwood remodel.

Read MoreWelcome to round two of great house, horrible furniture. If you can look past the overstuffed sofas and cast your eye upwards, you'll see more glorious clerestory windows than you can shake a stick at. Downstairs you'll find a sweet little pool. Tiki party anyone?

Read MoreI know it's Monday and you may be a bit fuzzy brained still, but have another sip of coffee and fire up that imagination. You're going to need it. This is the kind of house that is begging for a makeover. For starters, the architecture is amazing. You've got vaulted ceilings with clerestory windows, amazing stonework inside the house, courtyards and trees. All that on 1/4 acre for $300k.

Read MorePrime location, check. Modern design, check. Pool, check. They even threw in some board formed concrete to make me extra giddy. All that's missing is an Eames chair for me and a Womb chair for my lady. Oh, and 1.6 million dollars.

Read MoreLast week before it hit the market, I had the chance to walk through this house designed and built by Austin based Minguell-McQuary. I was pleasantly impressed. It's so rare to see a house on the east side that is this well detailed architecturally. It's the little things, baseboard details, metalwork etc that really make this place. Here's to hoping that good design really can command that kind of price. Fingers crossed.

Read MoreI just walked through this home, and I'm 90% sure it was designed by Emily Little. The floor plan is almost identical to the Emily Little designed Agave home I sold earlier this year. Like that home, this one has some lovely airy public spaces, but add to that an amazing location. Walking distance to Gourmands, Lost Wells, Bar 2211 and the new commercial and restaurant space coming soon on Webberville. All that accounts for the nearly $200,000 premium over Agave. Location people. It makes a HUGE impact on home prices.
