1815 Dexter – AD Stenger

Great photo blog of one man’s journey remodeling an AD Stenger home. Looks like it is coming along nice and can’t wait to see it mostly finished (no home is ever ‘finished’ it seems). Above is the ‘before’ picture, I believe.

Paramount – $425k – AD Stenger

This is Chuck Voelter’s AD Stenger home in Barton Hills. I meet Chuck at a livemodern.com meet-up shortly after moving here 5 years ago. At that time I had discovered his neighborhood and the Stengers there and knew nothing about who built them; Chuck set about changing that. I still remember the pictures of the green concrete floors he uncovered as part of his restoration project.

Midcentury in the Redwoods – Daniel Liebermann

It has been slim pickings in the MLS lately. Nothing really has caught the eye, unless you count this Stenger listing which induces a desire towards violence (stucco?!?).

Instead, check out this NY Times feature on a lovely home in the Redwoods of California. Built by Daniel Liebermann, a former apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright. Slideshow here.

Great set of photos of this 1950 home in Philly by Greg La Vardera.

Almarion – $640k – Tom Shefelman

I am not familiar with Tom Shefelman but now curious. There is a another mid-century modern home on Almarion which is possibly one of my favorites in that area that bares some similarities so now I am curious to learn more

Side note: The pictures in this post are mine from about 4 years ago. They are not great by any stretch but may add to a the limited set in the MLS listing.

Brady Lane – Stenger

This was up and into ‘pending’ in a flash.

PS. Eff the Realtor for suggesting a tear down. Hopefully the buyer is better than that.

Lund – $549k – Stenger

Updated Stenger home in Barton Hills. Update will have to be mostly redone if you want it inline with the MCM period style or even current modern trends.
