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

Listing info.

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.

Info

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

Mount Barker – $940k

This one gets by because I like the ceiling in the great room.  That overcomes, just barely, the vessel sink penalty.

Great house up near Dallas featured on Design Milk yesterday.

AntiVJ

Something a bit different today.  I love how these artist use light and video protections onto buildings to create completely new architectural spaces and textures.

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.

Listing info.

Minnie Drive – J.C. Schmeil

I love building blogs.  It is always interesting to see the process that goes into building a structure.   This house will be $300k when it hits the market.
