The Newcastle built and HA Architecture designed house in the North Loop is a welcome addition to the neighborhood. Newcastle is better known for building in East Austin, but it's good to see a neighborhood like North Loop getting a little bit of love.

Read MoreThis one was on the market earlier this year, but the buyer had to delay the sale for a few months. It's back now and as good as ever. So good it was quickly under contract, but as luck would have it that didn't last. It's not often you get a third chance at an amazing house like this. Did I mention is was designed by Barton Riley?

Read MoreIt's not unusual to see a home that looks newer than it really is, most well remodeled mid century modern homes are a good example of that. This house however actually looks older than it is. Not in a bad way though. It was built in 2002, which admittedly was a time when there wasn't a lot of modern going around, but I could swear it looks like some early 90's contemporary. Either way, I'm always happy to see something with that timeless modern look.

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 MoreViews, huge windows, a wet bar and a roof top deck with grill and kitchenette. Seriously, what more could you ask for. A 2 to 1 ration on bathrooms to bedrooms? Sure, seems a bit much but why not. Seriously minus the pool this house has it all. Great location too.

Read MoreYou know I'm always a sucker for a black house. There is just something so dramatic about them. This one comes by way of Hatch Works who have built quite a few similar homes on the east side. The dark motif carries inside as well, but manages to do it without feeling to dark and moody.
