Do you watch the show Sell This House on A&E?
It’s fun to see designer Roger Hazard turn a house around in a short amount of time to get it market-ready.
So when he told me he’s selling his own place, a 1,500 square-foot “modern farmhouse” in Texas, I knew we’d want to see it. Take a look!
Roger Hazard’s Modern Farmhouse
It’s located in an “alternative modern community” known as Agave in Austin where houses are anything but cookie-cutter. The 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home is listed for $300,000, which sounds like a bargain to me.
The floors are polished concrete.
The house was designed by FAB Architecture.
There are barn doors…
…and “Mr. Ed-style doors on the bedrooms upstairs let in light but keep out pups or toddlers.”
Another thing I’m loving? All the board and batten!
Roger has a degree in landscape architecture, and it shows in the outdoor spaces.
Thanks to Roger and Chris for sharing their listing with us.

I love the barn doors! I think the concrete floors look neat, but maybe not so much in Virginia weather. 😉
I have never heard of this show…I will check it out, thanks!
Love those doors and the board and batten. I think I’ll borrow his fencing idea for my garden. Looks doable.
I would like to put my house on the market, but need help in knowing what to fix and how to stage it, so I can get a good price.
I forgot to tell u that I live in Virginia (Northern Neck) on the water and that I am 30 minutes from Maryland by boat.
Wow! What a cool house! And your link to Agave had me wasting a lotta time this morning! There are some GREAT small modern houses on their list of available plans…definitely book marked that one to enjoy again later.
I know, right? Loved looking around their website!
Love this show. Watch it every Saturday. As a matter of fact Julia, I asked you about it last week. Where is he moving too? Didn’t know he lived in Austin, a very cool town with a cool vibe. Beautiful house too!
Christina,
On the Design Hazard site they say “We have decided to sell our home in Austin, and are looking at farms in upstate New York. After the experience of transforming a new home into something with rustic charm, we’re ready to do the opposite: fuse modern and classic designs in a 200+ year old house.”
There is more info about their new show and I think it will be interesting.

What a cool place!!!! I don’t watch this show but I’ll take a look.
Have a wonderful day, my friend!

ha ha, when I first saw this I thought “bet it’s in Austin” . It’s a beautiful house, not a huge fan of modern architecture but I like the interior of that one.
Love the barn doors and the blue upper walls/ceiling in bedroom. I have white beadboard that goes up 8 feet high on my bedroom walls and plan on painting the upper 1 1/2 feet and the ceiling a dark color. Now, I can calm my husband’s fears and show him with this pic that it WILL look good.
Julia this home is so refreshing. Fun elements and the mix of mid century modern and traditional is great!
All the Best!

Love, love, love the dutch doors–I’d have them everywhere except the bathroom. Sooo much better than those temporary gates for confining kids and dogs. Always wonder about concrete floors–like the look, but I have a ceramic tile floor in my kitchen and it’s awful on my back and knees even with a big gel mat. Would think concrete would be, too. Didn’t think there’d be any difference between tile and hardwood–they’re both hard, right? WRONG! Huge difference.
I think I’d change some of the decor (deer heads aren’t my thing) but the house is fabulous. Love the dutch doors and the barn doors. I have a friend that installed barn-style doors in her master bedroom and they’re completely fabulous.
Fantastic! Modern but without being too sterile or cold.
I’ve driven by Agave a few times and always wanted to see what the houses looked like inside. This one is pretty cool without being sterile and super masculine.
Okay, I’ve seen pretty much every design show on HGTV but I’ve never heard of this one! Love the barn doors, Dash and ALbert rugs, and great outdoor spaces.
Love it! Great colors and hip without being dated in 5 minutes.
Really like the green used in the kitchen but I’d probably update the appliances. And at the price of the house I could afford to do it!
What an adorable house! I love it. I have never seen the show, but now I want to watch it! Thanks for putting this post together for us, Julia!
For a modern house, this is better than I thought it was going to be. My favorite part of the house is the barn doors. They give this home a farm house feel to it.
The mix of mid-century modern and Texas is so cool! Really love it.
Love the mixes. The outdoor spaces look so lush! Thanks for sharing. Hope you’re having a grand evening! Toodles, Kathryn @TheDedicatedHouse
Those barn track doors went straight to my pinterest.
love it. and can’t believe that show is back. please let tanya have a stylist this time.
Thanks for posting these pics! I watch Sell This House quite often and it’s always fun to see what designers create for their own spaces. What a fun house. Love the simplicity and the colors.
Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
What a great mix of modern and country. I dig it.
i love this place – its so fab fun and fresh – best le xox
What a neat space! I love the modern textures (concrete flooring) mixed with the unique of the barn doors. So fun and different from every other house on the block. It would be interesting to see what his future endeavors might include.
Love this house and LOVE the barn style rolling doors. I recently saw on Ask This Old House on PBS, a renovation the team was working on with the same doors on the kitchen pantry. They used a metal bar at the top and then used lawnmower wheels (they spray painted them black) – so the doors could roll. Very inventive and inexpensive and still gives the same high end look!
What a beautiful home! It certainly does have a very refreshing feel to it. It is very well-lit.
So excited to see this post! I LOVE Sell This House, and STH Extreme is even better. The designs are much, much better (natch, since they actually get a budget). My Saturday morning routine generally includes vegging out and catching several episodes of this show.
I’m impressed by Roger’s house, love the look and vibe.
Love the dutch doors. Are they stock doors or custom? Would love more information on the how to do these. Love the house.
Hey, thanks so much for featuring our house. And thank you for all the kind comments.
– Chris & Roger
Thanks! Nice to hear from you, Chris! 🙂
That’s in Austin, TX right? I think I’ve seen that neighborhood.. Love it, don’t you?
Off to check out the links you provided, cause if I haven’t seen that neighborhood, it’s field trip time!

Yep, east on MLK/969, just past 183.
I love the clean lines of this house. It’s simple but still has a warm homey feel. I’m still hooked on houses and your blog! I’ve been away but am back to blogging once again.
Take care!
Jennifer
I am officially in love with every element of this house. Thanks so much for sharing it. Your blog is fantastic.
Cool house. I live in Austin, but most of the cool houses are in *bad* school districts, as this one is. ;-(
Will have to tune into this show.
I’m actually watching Sell this house RIGHT NOW! Haaa too funny. I found your site from Emily Clark’s. I’m gonna have to check out some more of your blog 🙂
I watch many of HGTV’s shows but I’ve never seen Sell This House. Now I’m a bit disappointed that I’ve missed it altogether. Don’t you know if there’s going to be a rerun? About the house, I adore the idea of blending a rustic style with a modern one. The best aspect of it would probably be its intensely illuminated interior (The people of sunny Austin, I envy you!) and the absolutely gorgeous yard, both contributing to a relaxed feeling even more. I’m not into the taxidermy, the ‘DUNES’ lettering and the portraits though. However, the house as a whole is an inimitable piece of architecture that’s very typical of Agave.
My family and I are a long time fans of “Sell This House.”
We looked forward to every Saturday morning at 8am (Los Angeles) to start the weekend watching this show. It inspired us to at least clean the house. I was so disappointed to find out that A&E no longer airs “Sell This House” Saturday mornings. I am quite lost without my weekend inspiration show.
Does it air at all at another day and time?
Can you play re-runs?
I am going through withdrawal. Sylvia Catalina Cruz
I love Sell this House and Sell this House Extreme. I miss watching it on Saturday mornings. Will it be coming back? Please.
Why did Roger leave Sell This House??
Lot of houses in Atlanta had a similar style: dark floors, white cabinetry, iron railings, creamy walls, which we replicated with Benjamin Moore Linen White, and beautiful fabrics on windows and furniture.
