This was on the market for a bit last summer / fall. Now re-listed. This stretch of Live Oak has a collection of modern homes (including at least 2 other MJ Neal designs).

The house has been significantly altered, it still sort of works, but it’s much colder, it has lost the warmth it had… The oriented strandboard and the sisel are gone, the bamboo was added and the living room modified for an addition that never took place. In spite of it all, I still like the house, I wish we could buy it back:-(

I saw this house when it was on the market years ago, and I actually really like the changes. I thought the sisel was a poor choice to begin with.
The house was and is impressive. The tweaks to make it more livable are great…
Viviane – good to see you here. Hope all is well with you and MJ. I have to pipe in and say that I was able to see this house be built and have also seen it recently when Carla listed it. Although there have been cosmetic changes, your husband’s strong contemporary design will always be evident in this project. The stair tower and the outdoor living areas are still powerful elements.
Hi Cass,
I still like the house, I’d buy it in a minute if I could:-) I just think it’s colder, but it’s easy to fix, nothing major, and granted, some people prefer it that way!
great house any day, no doubt…
Viviane
