Mid-Century Real Estate for Sale: October 4th, 2019.
A lot of great bargains in this week's real estate roundup! The trouble with some of these "diamonds in the rough" is that they don't always come with spectacular photographs. These are also the kinds of homes we love to feature, because it isn't always obvious what kind of architectural beauty lies behind bad wallpaper and unattractive furniture. Some of these home come with professional real estate photos and some are poorly-lit shots from the street, but each of the listings is a mid-century modern home worth saving!

1958 Beauty in Evansville, IN - 3,417 sqft. ($300,000)
While not quite 'pharaonic' as the listing description states, this spacious home has some really nice architectural details. We love the entry gable beams, open floor plan, original built ins, and cohesiveness of the home. While the current furniture is doing it no favors, some carefully selected pieces would make this place shine.
