Just want to let you know that this house belonged to my husband's family in the late 70's. The house was a real party house in those days according to him. It had problems when it was new-always leaked like a siv. I think that the builder had cut a few corners or didn't supervise very well with the building process. We can tell you more if you're still interested.
OK, so I am not a modernist, I just like neat stuff. (I just used neat... wow.)
So, take a look at this place and let me know if you'd consider it "mod" or some other name. Some houses, I know would be considered mod. Some, like this one, I'm not so sure. I'm guessing that, by some strict definition, it's not. However, by the "Metropolitan Home" definition, it probably is. I go more by the Met Home definition of mod, and tend to like all the places that would fall into that more general bucket.
I've actually gone to look at this place (years ago). Other than the neighborhood, it looked like the house could be made into something nice with the right people working on it. If I were single, I'd take it on.
Thoughts on the house and the SW Fondren Northfield subdivision/area?
