This Sprawling JanMar MCM Is Inspired

Ring-a-ding-ding, this midcentury house selected as the High Caliber Home of the Week sponsored by Lisa Peters of Caliber Home Loans is simply delicious.

Built in 1959, this midcentury modern home at 11410 Saint Michaels Drive is located in JanMar, one of our favorite North Dallas neighborhoods at Hillcrest and Forest. Known for its hills and dales, serpentine streets, and creeks, this sprawling 3,342-square-foot home is situated on a raised half-acre corner lot surrounded by mature oaks and distinctive Yaupon Hollies. The corten steel planters are a fantastic modern touch.

Inside the one-story pier and beam home, you’ll find exposed brick walls, cedar ceiling beams, skylights, and floor-to-ceiling windows that stun. This mix of glass, wood, brick, and natural light are all a nod to the organic architecture used to bring the outside in.

This architect-designed home has been so loved through the years by its owners that it’s only changed hands once since it was custom built.

“The home, designed by architect Warren Hall for a doctor and his family, is a case study of a serene living environment that fully and artfully embraces modernism’s precepts-the open floor plan, seamless outdoor-indoor living and exquisite and carefully crafted building materials,” listing agent David Griffin says.

Griffin has listed 11410 Saint Michaels Drive for $1.225 million. It’s contingent right now after being snapped up in just five days after listing.
