update: House sold already and the realtor site isn’t resolving so I removed the pictures.
Classic Stenger home on Brady Lane in Rollingwood. Looks pretty reasonably cared for, though not a 100% kept in the period architecture through the years.

More pictures of Stenger homes on Brady Lane and surrounding area can be found in this photo set.

AD Stenger located on Blue Bonnet in Barton Hills. I am pretty sure this is the front view of the home.
Thank you to Geri Joskowitz for the pointer.

Sorry about the lack of updates. Been quite busy on work travel.
Been meaning to put up a short AD Stenger profile. Thanks to Chuck, we had an opportunity to visit with his widow and got nice tidbits of info about the man. We are still researching the extent of his developments as well as him personally. More later.
Took some more pictures up in Barton Hills. Turns out that this is the first home Stenger built up there:
Many more Stenger images as well as a few from the East side and some random others. 104 Image set.
Update: The link didn’t work for the full picture set until today. Sorry about that.

This image set takes us from mid-century East Austin homes through new builds and remodels in South Austin.
Just about the quintessential AD Stenger home. Located in Barton Hills, this design recalls more of the Rollingwood variations rather than Barton Hills core grouping.
This mid-century modern apartment (4 plex it appears) is in East Austin. Pops up out of nowhere (at least from the street I was on). Could certainly use a bit TLC.
This house is up near Jordan Park in Northeast Austin and sits on a nice piece of property. Nothing else in the area is quite like it (at least that I saw on this trip out there). Don’t know anything about it so if anyone has any info, please add a comment or drop me a note.

I just realized that I never published this collection of AD Stenger home pictures.
Sorry about that, didn’t mean to be holding out on you.
AD Stenger was perhaps the orginal mid-century modern developer in Austin. He started work on the Barton Hills homes in the early 50s. A UT student, he never earned his degree and unlike other local contemporaries did mostly spec homes. Stenger homes are largely grouped in the Barton Hills and Rollingwood areas. Some of the floor plans are used throughout the developments, but others are unique without known copies.
A quirky guy, he is survived by his widow who still lives in Rollingwood (in the last house he built).
I put these pictures up over on the Austin livemodern forum when they were first taken.

Rollingwood, particularly on the Brady and Ridgewood streets, has a very nice collection of mid-century modern homes by AD Stenger. Smaller by today’s standards (~1500 square feet), they are classic examples of 50’s modern movement. Thanks to this, new and remodelled homes carry on with newer modern designs and sit nicely in the neighborhood.

There are a host of mid-century modern homes along Balcones and nearby streets.
Fehr & Granger, AD Stenger (or similar style), and others seem to be present with some newer modern homes about.

It isn’t often AD Stenger homes are available. This one is just around the corner from the larger grouping within Barton Hills and comes a few years later.
Judging from the pictures, there have been some updates but overall tastefully done. Good size lot it appears as well. More info pending.
update: Well, that did last long. Within days of listing, offer has been accepted plus back-ups four deep. Word is that the home went to a Stenger devotee which is great news.
