Mid-Century Modern Real Estate For Sale, August 2nd, 2019
Some terrific mid-century modern homes included in the round-up this week from Michigan,Texas, Ohio and New York. Many of these homes are very affordable, and all offer some fantastic mid-century modern design. Pay special attention to the first home in Bloomfield Hills - this one is being marketed as a potential tear down, so it is in dire need of saving!
At-Risk! Architect Glen Paulsen's House in Bloomfield Hills, MI - 1,667 sqft. ($399,900)
Superb 1954 modern post and beam house at very real risk of being destroyed as it is being sold for land value. Designed by and for Detroit Architect Glen Paulsen this house is classic flat roofed, window-walled beauty with all the great built-ins and original features you would expect. Slate floor in entry, redwood panelling and the original kitchen is fab. It's hard to believe the listing description goes into so much detail praising the house but then provides the alternative '...or tear it down and build your dream home on this stately property.' Puke. Please share this one so we can save it from the wrecking ball. First image by Rob Yallop taken from the house's entry on the Michigan Modern website.

Affordable MCM in Chandler, TX - 2,823 sqft. ($127,900)
Lots to like in this 1974 home that fits into its country surroundings but has some great modern design elements inside. The main attraction is the large vaulted living room with a wall of glass and an original cone fireplace. Another great space is the loft above and behind the living room. Great price and plenty of potential.

Earthy Modern in Wawarsing, NY - 2,172 sqft. ($364,900)
Chunky post and beam structure with a beautiful open flow following the house down slope. Warm materials throughout and light in all the right areas. Even the kitchen fits with the big beam theme. Seems like a great price for the quality and condition here. Beautiful setting.

Unique Modern in Warwick, NY - 1,792 sqft. ($450,000)
This mid-century modern home boasts an eye-catching exterior and a light-filled interior that references the international style. Beautiful white minimalism with attractive parquet floors. I would not be surprised if this was an architect's own home. Set on 8 partially wooded acres.
