The 3,000-square-foot home has an extra wide floor plan and flows between two levels. The master suite has a sliding fogged glass closet and a skylit bathroom.

The tiles, light fixtures, backsplashes, and built-in shelves are all “custom architect-designed” pieces selected for the space. Is midcentury modern your style? 559 W Cornelia Avenue is listed for $899,900.
