If a home’s allure was measured by its ability to distract, this one would earn high marks. That’s because more than 50 people showed up for an open house at the Green Bay, WI, abode during a Packers game!

“Around here, that just doesn’t happen,” says listing agent Carri Busse, who is representing the listing with fellow agent Maria Sandoval, both with Shorewest Realtors–Green Bay/Door County.

The prospective buyers (or possibly just looky-loos?) showed up on game day to get a good look at the unique midcentury home, which dates to 1958. With its 28-foot, steel-framed parabolic roof, it has a distinctly shiplike aura.

After two recent price cuts, the 4,360-square-foot time capsule is listed for $365,000.

The sellers bought the home in March and have decided it’s too big for them. And before them, there were only two owners.

“It’s very original, and they haven’t made many changes,” Sandoval says. “It’s like going back in time.”

A 1964 article about the home’s first owners notes that its striking roofline attracts attention. And while the facade, including the triangle above the front door, is certainly notable, the unique design continues inside.

“You definitely get a fun and funky vibe when you walk in the front door,” Busse says. “You feel something when you go into this house. It’s not just your average house.”

There are five bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, stone accents, a cantilevered staircase, and a sunken living room.

And then there’s the kitchen, with its original cabinetry and orange countertops.

“They’re laminate, and it’s the same that you saw in the ‘Brady Bunch’ house,” Busse says.

The kitchen also has its original linoleum floors, which wrap up the wall a bit—an older installation style that is no longer used, she explains.

The retro color palette and vintage flooring aren’t the only old-school details. There is also plenty of paneling and shag carpeting.

The home is full of “little touches—like the deadbolts are heart-shaped,” says Busse, who admits she and her husband briefly considered buying the home. “There are just a lot of unique features in this house that we don’t see in other houses.”

And if the recent open house attendance is any indication, there is some genuine interest in restoring this home to its former glory.

“People are loving midcentury modern. … It reminds them of their childhood, or the features are just so different with open areas and windows,” Busse says. “We’re hearing from our buyers that nothing [on the market] has character, so they’re looking for something unique.”
