Urban Homestead in South Austin

Completed 2014. This perfect urban homestead Making Modern Home just completed is the rare combination of a full acre in South central Austin and a fully re-imagined simple 50s home that became a Mid Century Modern Ranch.  We started by reworking the unusual floor plan to create a third bedroom, second dining area, and second living area. With the new plan, certain wall areas were retained for support creating an open, livable, and unique layout centering around the kitchen island. Several Mid Century Modern finishes were chosen including the carbonized strand woven bamboo floors (to reference the original wood floors), reuse of the old wood slab doors, and the brass and black hardware throughout. Even the original windows, now painted black, were used.  The home has a tremendous connection to the full peaceful acre it occupies. The modern cement hacienda tile in both bathrooms and backsplash were bold choices but add to the character and uniqueness of the home.  We are proud that this home isn't like any other flip on the market.  This home is truly a wonderful urban homestead, ready for its buyer.  In collaboration with Redemption Home Solutions.
