Well here it is, the first Starlight Village house to hit the MLS. Despite the original promise to have prices start in the $200's this particular model weighs in at just over $500k. There are no photos of the interiors still as they are a work in progress. Exterior is looking good though!
Price: $501,000
Details: 2,007 sq. ft. 3 Bed, 3 Bath
Read MoreLets be honest. The 80's and 90's were pretty dark ages for "modern" architecture. There was a lot of contemporary, or what I call "Beatle Juice modern" happening (watch the movie again, you'll get it). These cedar clad shed roofed homes were definitely a trend though, especially in more secluded settings. The cladding is equal parts brutal and softening and I've always loved the look of them.
Price: $825,000
Details: 2,311 sq. ft. 3 Bed, 3 Bath
Read MoreI featured this Thomas Tornbjerg designed house over two years ago. It was a steal then at $$495k. Two years later and despite the hike in the price it's still looking like a pretty great deal.
Price: $495,000
Details: 1,518 sq. ft. 3 Bed, 3 Bath
Read MoreI know house hunting on a budget can be frustrating in Austin. One of the best ways to save some money is to go small. These 60's stand alone condo's pack a lot of punch into a small space. These are probably the best deal out there for someone that has to have mid century style in a central location.
Price: $425,000
Details: 925 sq. ft. 2 Bed, 1 Bath
Read MoreWell you don't see this everyday. If it wasn't for those 8' windows this 3,700 square foot concrete home in the middle of 40 acres just might be the perfect zombie apocalypse getaway. I do love the brutalist industrial material pallet though and the way it is built into the mountain. I'd love to see some better interior shots...
Price: $997,500
Details: 3,700 sq. ft. 4 Bed, 2 Bath
Read MoreEvery time I post these Lakeway modern homes I get comments from the haters that say "yeah, but you have to live in Lakeway". For the record I get it and totally agree. That being said if having a modern house is your number one priority and you are on a budget, this is about as good as it gets.
