This is the Muskin Company’s most recent project at Mueller Austin – a local, custom homebuilder specializing in high-quality construction in urban infill locations for over 30 years here in Austin.

The Muskin Company has been a part of Mueller since it’s inception, building a variety of homes in the neighborhood, from Craftsman to Contemporary.  The Muskin Company is probably most well known in Mueller for their custom, estate homes along Camacho Street, fronting Lake Park.

What makes this project unique?

The Muskin Company partnered with architect Michael Hsu to develop plans for these modern farmhouse-style row homes. Muskin and Hsu have teamed up before for Muskin’s Parade Home in 2009 on Camacho and Row Homes on Threadgill.  Hsu’soffice focuses on creating ‘livable, neighborhood-oriented urban spaces’ and has a reputation in Austin for their clean, contemporary design.  Some of their most famous projects around town include: La Condesa, P Terry’s & Uchiko.

The level of detail and features going into these homes is unparalleled in Mueller.

EXTERIOR FEATURES

Tilley Elevation

 

 

Each home will have it’s own, unique tile that lines the front porch, for a pop of color and will really make these homes stand out. And check out the built in bench on the front porch of the interior units.  It’s cedar, slatted and extended to create a functional screen for privacy between the units. Porch BenchImpressive steel planters line the front of the homes and green screens add a pop of color, while creating an intimate porch setting.

These homes each have a private courtyard with direct access through the living space, perfect for entertaining. Animal lovers have the ability to add a doggie door from the mudroom to the courtyard and cedar shake details seamlessly coordinate with the front of the house.

INTERIOR FEATURES

When you walk into these homes, you see an impressive feature wall that is covered in modern, wood paneling from floor to ceiling.  And guess what?  The bathroom and two closets are disguised by the paneling with a push & release mechanism on the doors for access.

DESIGN PROCESS

As a buyer, you have the opportunity to work with an interior designer to help make selections (the earlier, the better to customize to your specifications).  Since Muskin is in the business of building custom homes, your selections can be truly custom – you are not limited in your options. The process of building a home with the Muskin Company is organic and suited to the client’s needs. Some folks find it helpful to make an ideabook on Houzz.com and share that with the designer so she can do the shopping for you! If you spend less than the allowance in a certain area, then it’s a credit back to you as the buyer.

Each home has 3 bedrooms/2.5 baths at 1800 square feet and is listed at $535,000. If you are looking for a livable, contemporary home in Mueller that can be customized to your liking, these row homes are the answer.
