100 E Skyview 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 baths, 2429 sf, $529,900 This 5 star green home (5 out of 5 stars City of Austin Green Build Program) was built by the owners (not just your average homeowners- one is an architect, and the other is a designer!)

What I love: of course all of the great green stuff, plus the fact that it has lots of character!
