About the Listing 18041 - 303540

Built in 1958, the Ray and Norma Smith House is a splendid example of Midland’s rich architectural heritage, a true Mecca of mid-century design where form, function, and innovation have long converged. Though its architect remains unknown, the home feels deeply rooted in the design movement that shaped Midland’s architectural landscape in the 1950s, characterized by natural materials, warm textures, and a seamless relationship between indoors and out. Constructed with Chicago common brick and defined by dramatic roof overhangs, this multi-level residence embraces both privacy and presence. A long, sculptural walk-up to the front entry offers a deliberate sense of arrival, while inside, vaulted mahogany ceilings create warmth and spatial drama in the formal living room and primary suite. Original woodwork is present throughout the home, adding a sense of cohesion and authenticity to each space. At just over 2,000 square feet, the floor plan includes three bedrooms, two full baths, and an upper-level office ideal for creative or remote work. The main floor offers generous gathering spaces, while the lower-level family room connects directly to a private terrace, a perfect setting for morning coffee or relaxed evening entertaining under the trees and vineyard. The kitchen retains its original footprint while incorporating premium appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking six-burner range, and Bosch dishwasher. The Garden features a diverse collection of plants that bloom in every season, ensuring there’s always something in flower. Towering old-growth trees create a lush canopy, providing a serene and shaded setting. Noeske Street is situated adjacent to Midland Country Club and within close proximity to downtown, walking trails, parks, and schools, making this a rare opportunity to own a home that honors the past while still fitting seamlessly into modern life. Midland’s architectural legacy is one of a kind, and the Smith House is an enduring piece of it. Reach out to schedule your private tour.
