Property Price Match: Modern Then vs. Modern Now

A sleek Mid-Century showcase squares off against a new home perfectly aligned to the needs of today’s buyers.

It’s not hard to spot echoes of the classic Mid-Century Modern aesthetic — minimalist lines, flat planes, and walls of glass — in many of today’s new developments. Currently on the market, you can find the real deal or a place that nods to this bygone era while offering today’s coveted modern features.
