Someone snatched up a midcentury modern gem<\/a> in Lexington, KY<\/a>, a month ago, but things didn\u2019t work out.<\/p>\n

So the four-bedroom, four-bathroom looker is back on the market for someone else to grab. And it\u2019s quite the rare catch.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere aren\u2019t a lot of midcentury modern homes in the area,\u201d says listing agent Teresa Blakeman<\/strong>, with The Brokerage.\u00a0\u201cIt was built in 1962 and has been very well maintained. It has a very different look to it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 3,633-square-foot home is listed for $1,520,000 and is a good mix of original details and 2023 conveniences.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe house is so unusual with original terrazzo floors, the curves to it, the views out the back, and the light,\u201d Blakeman says.<\/p>\n

The home has new skylights, a backup solar electric system with panels, and three Tesla Powerwall batteries.<\/p>\n

Kitchen<\/p>\n

New appliances in the kitchen are ready for eager home cooks.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe kitchen is new but is in line with the history of the home,\u201d Blakeman says. \u201cThe owners who updated the kitchen didn\u2019t change the layout of the house.\u201d<\/p>\n

The primary suite is on one side, with an atrium separating the other bedrooms and living areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a one-of-a-kind house,\u201d Blakeman observes. \u201cYou just don\u2019t see these. We have nothing like this. When you walk in, the light comes in everywhere. It just feels so Zen like. It will calm you down when you come in.\u201d<\/p>\n

Harvard-trained architect Richard Schubert<\/strong> designed the home.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe used an organic-looking steel screening that you can see from several windows that is very unique,\u201d Blakeman says.<\/p>\n

The same design also surrounds the front door.<\/p>\n

She notes that several designers have perused the place during open houses.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople love it,\u201d she says. \u201cIt\u2019s like living inside a work of art.\u201d<\/p>\n
