I love the drama of a house painted black. The rest of the details of this house are the opposite, no drama at all on the inside. Instead there is a mostly neutral interior just waiting for your own personal touch.

Read MoreRemember this one? I posted about it back in 2014. It needed a TON of work back then, so I'm glad to see that someone took the time and effort to fix it up. Unfortunately it's lost a lot of the character it had before but at least it didn't get torn down. It's still a slightly quirky mid century home on a gorgeous lot.

Read MoreI have to admit that this one confuses me a bit. The exterior with it's 4 different facade materials isn't my favorite, but get inside and the interiors are on point. There is a great balance of warm and cool surfaces and some classy and classic lighting fixtures. One thing is for sure though, that location is the bees knees.

Read MoreIf you know me you know my weakness for the Brown Building. The units there all have terrazzo floors and concrete beamed ceilings, plus extra low taxes thanks to a historical designation on the building. This unit was actually for sale a few years ago and it's back. It even had a recent $15k price reduction. What's not to love.

Read MoreWhile architecture of this house is about par for the course for east Austin infill, the interiors are better than most. There are actually two units to choose from here as well, a 1,800 sqft one for $450k and a 1,100 sqft one for $350k. All things considered either of those options are a pretty good bargain for a brand new house.

Read MoreI'm back, and I've got a sleeper with an interesting back storyto share. This is one of those houses that I suspect is better in real life than it is in the photos. It was designed in 1979 by Chartier Newton, an Austin based architect that practiced briefly with Arthur Fehr in the 70's after Charles Granger's untimely death. Like Charles Granger he also studied at Cranbrook Academy of Art and worked for Eero Saarinen for a time. This house has a fantastic private outdoor courtyard which the house wraps around. It's seen some updates (for good or bad) and now it just needs a little interior design love.
