Pre-Sold: Custom 1968 by Charles F.D. Egbert in Glen Echo Heights

This one went under contract before hitting the market. Designed for my clients 51 years ago by Charles F.D. Egbert, this well-preserved 1968 mid-century modern in Glen Echo Heights was featured in Better Homes and Gardens. The three-level house (including basement) with 3 beds and 3.5 bathrooms features a main level living room with 21-foot ceilings and walls of expansive glass. The exterior is clad in redwood. Some images from the magazine are below.

Vintage Mid-Century Modern in Forest Hills and Other New Listings

With spring approaching, more listings are coming on the market, including a number of mid-century modern homes. This untouched (the kitchen has starburst Formica) home in the Forest Hills neighborhood of D.C. is listed for $889K. The 3 bedroom/3 bath 1962 home with pool is being sold “as-is.” The soaring roof line of the living room and the stone exterior evokes the organic architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright rather the straight, spare lines of Mies.

Here are a few other new listings. All are from 1961. One is a mid-century in the trees of Mohican Hills in Glen Echo Heights listed at $899K. This listing is for a Charles Goodman-designed home in Hollin Hills. It is listed for $724K. And this listing is for a Phoenix Builders’ flat-roof mid-century in Mantua Hills in Fairfax. It is on a half acre with a pool and listed for $675K. Looking forward to see what other listings “bloom” as the weather warms.
