This brand-new, high-end contemporary detached condo was designed by Austin architect Don Harris, whose stylish smart homes have been featured everywhere from HGTV to the The New York Times.
The two-story unit is located on the same lot as a larger new modern build, also by Harris, in the popular Bouldin Creek neighborhood off South First Street.
At 1,100 square feet, the home makes excellent use of its size, combining efficiency with simple, aesthetically pleasing features and spaces, inside and out.
The home has two bedrooms and two bathrooms and features nice, light oak floors (and a kitchen wall), as well as lots of big windows throughout, allowing natural light to filter through every room.
The cedar fence on the sides and in back of the lot allow privacy while keeping the house open to the neighborhood. In addition to a huge second-story balcony, there’s also a lovely-looking, covered back patio, with low-maintenance landscaping all around.
