Sometimes a property crush grows on you, and sometimes it’s simply love at first sight. Take a look inside this mid-century modern Austin home and try not to get instant heart eyes. Just picture spending an afternoon in the living room, situated in a cozy but stylish reading chair nestled next to the ceiling-height bank of windows. Thanks to the shelves built into the adjacent stone wall, your decor can meld into the architecture itself. 

When it’s time to make dinner, pad across the cork floor into the sunshine-dappled kitchen, where saturated sky blue cabinets pop against the wood walls. In case this room is simply too cute to leave, you can take a seat right at the breakfast bar. Or if you’re in the more for a more formal dinner, you can take it over to the dining area underneath a Noguchi-style light fixture.

As if it hadn’t made enough of a statement, the home amps up the drama in the bathroom by covering it almost completely in glossy black tiles. Dim the lights and hang some eucalyptus by the showerhead for a truly immersive shower. Then, don a vintage robe and enjoy the 1950s splendor that is your home.
