Paul Hayden Kirk MCM in Wedgwood

This 1954 home was designed by Paul Hayden Kirk in his Pacific Northwest Modern style.  It was the model home for developer Albert Balch in the Wedgwood No. 3 neighborhood.  Listed for $850,000, 2803 NE 82nd St has 3 bedrooms, 2.25 bathrooms, and 2,580 sq ft.  Design features include an open plan living area, separate family room (more families had children by this time), and a minimalist exterior.

The current owners bought the house from the original buyers, and have maintained the original look and feel.   A well as the main living area, there is a master suite with bathroom and walk-in closet on the main floor, and a separate half bathroom for guests.  The lower level has 2 bedrooms, full bathroom, family room with the second fireplace, and an office.  There is also some unfinished space with potential to expand the living areas.

The sellers had already put it on craigslist, with a detail description of the property.  If that link doesn’t work, search for “Wedgwood mid-century”.  They are willing to deal directly with buyers who are not working with a real estate agent.  More information is available on the craigslist post.
