House Crazy Sarah believes designer-decorated homes are actually cheating (when you hire someone to decorate your home, how can it really be you?)

However, she’ll give this one a pass because it is so damn classy.

Despite being thoroughly sanitized and modernized, this home is a designated ‘Historic Home’ in the city of Austin which, as the listing points out, means lower property taxes.
