Post and Beam in Albuquerque, NM - 2,676 sqft. ($387,500)

Love the chunky post and beam structure of this house designed by Robert Riley in 1966. It features plenty of natural light from the skylights but is well protected from heat. While the detached studio/guesthouse is a bit incongruous, it has great potential. Love the courtyards, beams and playful use of color.

Large and well designed 1962 home featuring unique beams, very cool fireplace, lots of built-ins and warm wood materials throughout.

Sited on a lovely acre lot, this house listing even boasts a brand new septic system giving you 'peace of mind for your toiletry needs'...

Alside Aluminum Home in Flint, MI - 1,940 sqft. ($146,900)

Unless you've been living under an MCM proof rock for the past 3 years you will have seen the amazing Frost House, an Alside Home time capsule in Michigan City, IN that included all the original Knoll furnishings.

This Alside Home in Flint, MI dates from the same year, 1964, and is one of the pitched roof versions. It has some of the iconic brightly colored panels on the far end where the entry is and retains a number of original features including walnut closet panels, louvered doors, built in vanity and the floor to ceiling windows. While there are a number of 70s style decor items, the house could definitely be stripped back to its minimalist mid century origins of clean lines and a carefully chosen palette.

Big thanks to Signature Real Estate for sending the photos over to us. Contact listing agent Ann Fontenakes on (810) 516-1373 for a viewing or more info.
