Description
Fantastic mid-century modern could be right out of the pages of Atomic Ranch...and under $90,000! Two wood burning fireplaces for winter and a beautiful patio for summer that can be viewed through a ribbon of windows from living room. Vaulted ceilings throughout add interest and drama. Hardwood floors, many built-ins, birch cabinetry and copper fronted kitchen drawers are just a few of the period details that benefit this structure. The laundry is a separate room between the bedrooms and the kitchen, and provides good storage. Built in half-wall of bookcases provide space to display books or treasures, and separate the kitchen and living room. With den/family rooms at each end of house plus living/dining area in the center, you have three different living spaces! A circular drive, large fenced yard, and outside storage complete this original 1955 home that retains most of its character. Some will say it's "dated", and the new savvy buyer will appreciate it's "un-remuddled" original condition.

Keith, we're not a major metro area AND we do have a fair share of Midcentury Modern, most of which were custom built for owner/architect occupants.  Because we are so well known as "the land of Tara," our market is only beginning to appreciate these architectural gems.  That's why the price point is so attractive.
