Architecturally Significant Alden B. Dow Masterpiece on Midland Country Club Experience the rare opportunity to own an architecturally significant home designed by renowned architect Alden B. Dow, FAIA. Completed in 1952 for Dow’s brother-in-law, Robert Bennett, this extraordinary residence blends mid-century modern artistry with timeless elegance and thoughtful updates. Meticulously maintained and sensitively modernized, the nearly 5,000 square foot home offers a harmonious balance of historical integrity and contemporary comfort. Situated just off the third fairway of the Midland Country Club, the home’s exterior showcases tan brick and stucco with wood cornices and low-pitched rooflines, all carefully composed to emphasize Dow’s signature design principles. Inside, prepare to be captivated by the dramatic interior, anchored by a sunken living room surrounded on three sides by a raised, brick-paved gallery—earning the home its fitting nickname, the “Gallery House.” The focal point of the living space is a striking two-faced brick fireplace, offering built-in seating and custom shelving on one side and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows on the other, with sweeping views of the golf course. Unique design elements continue throughout the home, including a stunning dining area lit by a 9x13 grid of wooden box lights with red glass inlays and an adjoining screened porch ideal for relaxing or entertaining. The main level includes a thoughtfully updated kitchen, guest bedroom, and playroom. Upstairs, the private second floor hosts four additional bedrooms and a spacious primary suite featuring a large dressing room and vaulted ceilings. A row of clerestory windows spans the length of the upper level, bringing in abundant natural light and offering views of the mature, manicured grounds. Recent updates by the current owners include a new roof, driveway, kitchen, carpet, and interior paint—enhancing the home's functionality while preserving its mid-century modern character. Don’t miss your chance to own one of Midland’s true architectural treasures.
