Of the two mods talked about above, the latter one in Memorial Bend did end up in sympathetic hands. Not sure the fate of the other one and I don't want to drive by and even look, too afraid.

My next one to try to find the right person for is more of a full throttle tiki-asian style 50's or early 60's vintage modern in Glenbrook Valley. I don't have pictures yet but it has the projecting beams coming off the eaves and the flared corners of the roof. The geometric asian fretwork under the eaves, lava rock accents, and a round window with an asian patterned screen on the front. It has the big drive through port-a-cochere (I have no idea how to spell that) with the circle drive. The interior has flagstone floors throughout the living areas and kitchen area & an asian style room divider off the living room. It is about 3,000 sq ft on one level with 3 bedrooms and just one living area, so the rooms are huge. Some repairs have to be done first, but I can't wait to get that tiki palace polished up and on the market.

I just hope I can get someone who loves that instead of "ewww, look at THAT! Can we rip it all out and do an UPDATE to Tuscan?"
