61 benton road, saginaw, MI 48602

Own a piece of architectural history with this classic mid-century modern ranch at 61 Benton Rd, Saginaw, designed in 1955 by the celebrated duo, David Oeming and Clarence “Doc” Waters. This home was originally built for Dr. & Mrs. F.J. Cady, showcasing the distinctive design philosophy of its creators, who were pivotal in shaping Saginaw's architectural landscape after their notable careers and contributions post-WWII. The original blueprints and spec books are still available, offering a unique opportunity for those interested in an authentic restoration. The residence spans 2118 square feet and includes three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with a design that employs a blend of compression and expansion to guide movement and create an inviting flow throughout the space. The structure's brick exterior and elongated sloping roof reflect the era’s iconic styling, while walls of windows ensure each room is bathed in natural light. These sprawling ranches draw significant inspiration from Frank Lloyd Wright's Usonian designs, first introduced in the 1930s. A generously sized backyard provides the perfect private retreat for relaxation or hosting gatherings, while its location in a peaceful neighborhood enhances the property's sense of seclusion and tranquility. This property is more than a home; it's a work of art that combines luxurious living with a rich architectural heritage, perfect for anyone who appreciates design and comfort.
