Come tour a Mid-Century Modern California Ranch
on Des Moines’ north side. The owners will discuss their goal of
evolving their house to fit their lifestyle while still maintaining the
spirit of the architecture. They’ve outgrown the carport and require
more space for 2 cars, 4 motorcycles, and the other garage-dwelling
things a homeowner acquires.
Their challenge is to figure out how to build what they need while meeting city codes, staying true to the Mid-Century Modern style, and not breaking the bank. This presentation and tour will include the blueprints from when the house was build, 3D renderings of the proposed garage, and some of the fun quirks of this unique house.
The homeowner is also in the midst of a restoration project on two large sliding glass doors. That work was inspired by a windows workshop that the club hosted last year.
Style: Mid-Century Modern California Ranch
Year Built: 1960
Sq Ft: 2025 finished
Owners: The current owner is the 3rd owner of this house.
Owned since: 2004
If the weather is nice enough we’ll start the meeting in the carport and driveway to talk about the exterior of the house.
When: Saturday, April 16, 9:30-11:00am
Where: 4310 43rd St., Des Moines (Please note: Beaver Ave is closed north of Lower Beaver Road because of a bridge replacement over I-35/80.)
Cost: Free and open to the public
