The Gallery House, located on the Midland Country Club golf course, was designed by Alden B. Dow and built for Robert Bennett in 1951.
Designed in 1950 and completed in 1952 for Dow’s brother-in-law, Robert Bennett, this nearly 5,000 square foot home is a stunning example of Alden B. Dow’s architectural legacy. While the exterior remains true to Dow’s clean, balanced design aesthetic with tan brick, stucco, and low-pitched rooflines, the interior is anything but understated. Known as the “Gallery House,” the home features a sunken living room bordered by a raised brick-paved gallery, a two-sided brick fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Midland Country Club golf course, and an intricately lit dining room with a wooden box light ceiling featuring red glass inlays.
The current owners have thoughtfully updated the property while preserving its mid-century modern charm. Recent improvements include a new roof, driveway, kitchen, carpet, and interior paint, ensuring modern functionality alongside historical authenticity. “Opportunities like this don’t come around often,” said Tom Webb, Associate Broker. “This home is more than just real estate—it’s a work of art and a piece of Midland’s architectural history.”
The home’s prestigious location just off the third fairway of the Midland Country Club offers sweeping views and a serene setting, while its spacious layout includes five bedrooms, multiple entertaining spaces, and vaulted ceilings with clerestory windows that flood the interior with natural light.
