I love the unusual, so when I see a house with a bridge stretching out to the front door my interest is piqued. Luckily the rest of the house doesn't disappoint (minus maybe the glass mosaic tile in the kitchen). The terraced outdoor pool area looks like an especially nice place to pass a summer day like today.

Read MoreOk people, here's the thing. There are sooo many great mid century modern and modern houses that hit the market this week I can barely keep track of them. That being said, I'm going to finish the week off with this quirky and affordable house. It's actually a few houses, plus a barn and a green house. All that and 6 acres for the price of a tear down in East Austin. It almost makes me want to move out of town. Almost.
Price: $275,000
Details: 1,900 sq. ft. 2 Bed, 2 Bath
Read MoreNow for something a little different. This sub 500 sq. ft. bungalow in East Austin is absolutely adorable. It's like the dream cabin you've always wanted, only right smack in the middle of my favorite neighborhood. Is it crazy to think you can sell a 450 sq. ft. house for $300k? Time will tell.

Read MoreIt can be hard to have champagne taste on a beer budget, but when it comes to mid century modern homes in Austin, I think this is about as good as it gets, especially when you count the amazing location. This is a perfect example of a thoughtful, well executed remodel. Hats off to you Gillespie. Hats off.

Read MoreThis is a special one people. One of a very few Barton Riley designed homes here in Austin. I was lucky to help some buyers acquire a similar home designed by Riley just down the road last year. I think it's still one of my favorite homes in Austin. This one however may just take the price. Not only is the lot huge, but the house is sizable as well. To top things off, it looks like the updates that were done were quite tasteful. Just add new furniture, and don't forget to invite me over.
Price: $1,300,000
Details: 3,608 sq. ft. 5 Bed, 3 Bath
Read MoreI love it when developers use a good architectural firm for their speculative projects. The end result is a well designed space, like this duplex from Sett Studio, without all the difficulty of going out and hiring an architect and figuring out the financing yourself.
