I love modern homes, but I have to admit I have a sweet spot in my heart for these classic east Austin bungalows, especially in Holly. While the architectural fabric of this neighborhood has changed dramatically in the last few years, it’s good to see some original homes preserved.

Read MoreI love these Anderson Mill area ranch homes, they’ve got a lot going for them. The limestone facades lend themselves well to mid century modern updates and they typically have vaulted ceilings which makes the interior spaces so much more inviting.

Read MoreThere aren’t many houses in 78745 that have nearly $4M price tags, but if ever there was one that deserved it, it’s this masterpiece by A Parallel. The house clearly has mid century influences and while relatively modest in size has everything you could need. It’s a shining example of less is more.

Read MoreWhile it’s easy to quibble over some of the details (could they not build a better looking fence for $4M?) this is a remarkably handsome house from Joseph Brothers. The main living space is flooded with light from an entire wall of windows, embracing the indoor / outdoor connection core to modernism. I also love the extensive use of walnut, a beautiful wood that has found itself out of vogue.

Read MoreYou just can’t match the character of a historic home, and this late 40’s cottage in Cherrywood has it in spades. Of course that plus a relatively affordable price means in this market expect multiple offers on this one.
