1800 E 13th

This was for sale last spring but it looks like things didn't work out. It's back now with a better price though it now shares the lot with a freestanding condo. I still think it's a fantastic house and it's funny how that nearly $700k price tag starts to look more and more reasonable as the years go by. I guess that goes along with 12th and Chicon looking very different these days...

Price: $699,999

Details: 2,103 sq. ft.  3 Bed, 3 Bath

4908 Strass

This Allandale / Shoalmont project comes by way of Sett Studio. It's hard to tell from the photos, but it looks like there are all sorts of great little easter eggs surprises built into this design. The listing mentions a butcher block island with pull out pivot table, which definitely piqued my interest. That little feature I assume comes by way of Rabbet Labs.

Price: $1,200,000

Details: 3,036 sq. ft.  4 Bed, 4 Bath

4511 Balcones

And the hits just keep coming. This stunning mid century modern home was designed by Charles Granger (of Fehr & Granger) and built in 1963. It saw a total renovation in 2006 which means all the hard stuff has been done. Now you just need to buy some extra furniture to fill up the 7,000 + square feet of space. Oh, and invite me over for the pool party. 

Price: $2,400,000

Details: 7,008 sq. ft.  5 Bed, 9 Bath

57 Anthony

I always say that Holly is one of my favorite neighborhoods in Austin, and with all the development on Cesar Chavez it's only getting better. Unfortunately that means the price point is going up too, but this is a rare opportunity to get into the neighborhood in a new modern farm house for under $500k. How do they do it? Square footage. It's not a big house, but honestly 900 sq. ft. is plenty of room for one or two people. Plus there is some pretty great yard space to be had as well. 

Price: $415,000

Details: 902 sq. ft.  2 Bed, 2 Bath

1200 Westlake

This 1950's mid century modern home in Westlake got me like whoa. Not only does it include two houses, but a pool and over 3 acres of land. The house does look like it needs a little bit of work, but thanks to lots of terrazzo and stone it looks to have held up quite well over the years. Anyone have any idea on the architect on this one? 

Price: $2,250,000

Details: 4,091 sq. ft.  4 Bed, 3 Bath (combined)

300-308 2nd

To say this is a unique listing would be an understatement. First off it's located in Albany Texas, about 3 hours west of Dallas. Second it includes a 1907 Queen Anne cottage and two modern homes all designed as on large compound by architect Rick Wintersole. While a million dollars is a big price tag, this is an insanely good deal considering what you get here. Group buy anyone?

Price: $1,195,000

Details: 6,719 sq. ft.  5 Bed, 8 Bath
