Premier modern homes listed

Currently three of my favorite modern homes are on the market. First is the Sculpted House. Any trip through Genesee on I-70 nearly guarantees a peek at this Colorado landmark. Originally built in the mid 1960's by architect Charles Deaton, this home was recently finished with a 5,000 sq foot addition for a grand total of 7,644 "round" feet. Rollie Jordan of Kentwood Cherry Creek has the online tour.


Another great example is 456 Washington ST in the Alamo Placita neighborhood. Designed and built by Semple Brown, this home was a COBRA award winner for best residential architecture in Colorado. Dee Chirafisi of Kentwood City has an online tour for this property.

Finally, a classic example of Mid-century Modern is listed in Arapahoe Acres at 1421 E. Cornell PL. In a neighborhood of modern homes, this example has had many updates without losing the character of the home. Coldwell Banker Agent, Kiki Cannon, a resident of the neighborhood has more detail on her web site.
