Mid-Century Modern Homes are scattered throughout many Bellevue Neighborhoods. If you are looking for that Mid-Century Modern Home in Bellevue you have come to the right place? Having happened back into popularity over the last few years, it is not hard to find updated homes for you to call your own. There is a lot of discussion as to what defines the “Mid-Century Modern Home
I’m delighted to see Mid-Century Modern homes being featured in Rain City Guide. As my WebSite shows I’ve long specialzed in this type of liveable design. Though frequently needing some updating, they’re often especially good buys with their well-maintained mature gardens in established neighborhoods. JG
Hi Jerry – It’s amazing to see how many of these atomic ranch/Mid-Century Modern homes are available and that many of them have been updated already. Many of them are affordable for hte first time homebuyer but there are also those located in Medina and Clyde Hill that will spark interest of those looking over the Million dollar mark.
As for the architects…let me look into this a bit more as I have highlighted homes all over different Bellevue Neighborhoods.
Sarah- Unfortunately, some of these MCMs which have been as you say “updated already” have had some “unwise changes needing undoing” as I explain in my Google Knol below. (Click Link to open)-

When we sold this home many
years ago, it had lovely stained
red cedar ceilings, stained trim,
lots of other natural wood exposed
framing members including the
window mullions & headers above.
As one can see, subsequent owners
have made many changes to the
original house to fit their tastes.

John and Sarah- Your readers and I would love to know who
the talented architect was who designed the lovely home illustrating your today’s RCG “Bellevue Neighborhoods” Post. It’s important you (and all RE Brokers) credit the creators of the homes you offer for sale. JG
