6515 Newburgh Rd, Evansville, IN 47715

The Mid Century Modern home designed and built in 1960 by and for Virgil Miller, one of Evansvilleâs preeminent architects of the mid 20th century, showcases his eye for balance, proportion, and a sense of style that leans toward the understated and traditional. Designer of churches and school projects, his work includes the St. Agnes Catholic Church in Howell, built in 1952, and supporting the creation of the Riverside Historic District as the owner of 1113 Parrett Street - now Sauced - at the time of the submission of the National Register nomination form. His home until the 1990s, 6515 Newburgh Rd is on the market and is a testament to both the enduring strength of sound architecture and the value of a great big back yard. Original details throughout the home include built-ins, light fixtures, bathrooms, wood and slate flooring, Bedford stone fireplace, oversize glass slider doors, patio lighting, and wallpaper that maintains a timeless vintage appeal. The homeâs 4 bedrooms upstairs include a master suite, built-ins, and ample closet space.

The unfinished basement includes a large laundry storage area, a shop room, and a nuclear fallout shelter with a manual, hand crank fresh-air exchanger - effectiveness against nuclear fallout not guaranteed. All appliances stay, and the roof and major systems of the house are 5 years old. The deep back yard is shaded and level and ready to secure your spot among friends as the go-to party house.
