About Me
- Mid-Century Mike
- Washington, D.C., United States
- When my wife, daughter and I moved back to D.C. in 2005, I started looking for a resource about mid-century modern homes and neighborhoods in the area. I couldn't find anything, so I started Modern Capital. The site is dedicated to covering MCM and modern real estate, design and events in the D.C. area. It also is committed to raising awareness and supporting efforts to preserve the region's MCM architecture. I donate 10 percent of all ad revenue to groups dedicated to preserving and highlighting MCM architecture. This passion for informing people about the variety of mid-century modern homes in the area and an intense interest from readers looking for a real estate professional who gets MCM, led me to pursue my real estate license. I’m now a licensed Realtor with Long & Foster in Maryland and Virginia focusing mid-century modern homes. So if you are searching for an agent to help you find the right MCM home, contact me at moderncapital@gmail.com.

What do you reckon ' Built with 3 bedrooms, but windows may not meet current code.' means? That some of the bedrooms might be below grade and with windows not of the right size or ability to open or something that would prevent them from being counted as bedrooms?
Mike, here is another one that my wife and I looked at when we were home shopping recently: http://www.homesdatabase.com/home-listings-SPRING+LAKE-VIENNA-VA-MRIS-FX7031368 They even had a sign out front for a company that would tear it down and build a horrific McMansion. I hope it finds the right buyer.
They could at least TRY to market the house, with decent pictures taken during the daytime!! It wouldn't cost them anything to just put a little effort into the listing. I don't understand how anyone with any sense of style or appreciation for the past can be so eager to destroy a vintage house just to make a quick buck.
