Baltimore is home to a range of diverse architectural styles from beautiful Beaux Arts mansions to spare Frank Lloyd Wright ranchers. But this house blows all of the others out of the water!
This 1949 Art Deco meets the Jetsons, splashed with a bit of mid-century modern has just hit the market at a very reasonable $249k!
Details include curved windows, separate GE stainless steel kitchen unit, built-in cubbies, recessed lighting, underfloor radiant heating, and some moderne furniture original to the house.
You absolutely need a certain design aesthetic to love this house and to be able to live here. It’s on a great shaded lot, close to a beautiful municipal lake and in a young hip city neighbourhood. For more information and additional images, please click here.
Meg, this home is so fun and unique, not my style either; however that is what makes life so never-endingly unique!

Love it! They have a great eye for the period, and took it to the nth degree, but it's sensational! Hope whoever buys it keeps it intact.
ReplyDeleteI could see John Waters living there! not the very boring, normal house he lives in now.
ReplyDeleteFrozen in time and super cool. I would have to change the paint a bit. But it is definitely a keeper. xoxox Mary
ReplyDeleteI do love the working areas of the house---the steel kitchen cabinets, the lime-sherbet walls, that snazzy dinette straight from a corner CAFFAY, complete with private jukebox, the blush of Mamie pink on some of the walls, and at least six of my own Halls and Fiestas in those turquoise cubbies in the dining room.
ReplyDeleteI can't feature sitting on that plastic orange sectional in Baltimore Summers, and the sleeping areas and outdoors are WAY too Fifties Pensacola Motel. But it's altogether charming, in an Eisenhower time-capsule sort of way. Makes me want to see if Queen for a Day is on Netflix.

ReplyDeleteWhat an eyesore. The GE kitchen is from 1957 and beneath that garish paint one may find some hardwood shelving if one is lucky. The drop ceiling in the kitchen and all the elements in the house look as if the projects were executed by a Popular Mechanics magazine subscriber.
ReplyDeleteI love it but I would go in with buckets of white paint.....and transform that tech-o-colored baby to health.
