Mid-Mod Homes

Welcome to Mid-Mod Homes, a guide to Eichlers and other mid-century modern homes across the Bay Area. We cover Silicon Valley cities such as Palo Alto, Cupertino, Sunnyvale, Los Altos, Los Gatos and Saratoga, along with the Peninsula, the East Bay, Marin and San Francisco. The site is for owners, buyers, sellers and anyone who enjoys this architecture.

Here you’ll find tract histories, floor plans by architect, the rules each city sets for remodels, and the free tools in our Property Nerd Lab, including the Bay Area Eichler Tract Map. Each city and neighborhood guide explains what sets its mid-century homes apart, from the builders and architects to the original plans.

Looking for a home now? Browse current listings on BoyengaTeam.com, or sign up for Eichler Alerts to get updates by email.

Thinking about selling, or curious about your own house? We’re glad to talk it through with you, with no pressure, whether a move is next month or years away.

Thank you for visiting Mid-Mod Homes, where the design of the 1950s and 1960s meets the way people live today.

What Our Clients Say About Us

“Once we met Eric and Janelle, we new immediately we wanted to have them sell our home. They provided many options and were very open and honest in their recommendations, but in the end they let us know it was our decision. We agreed with all of their recommendations and in the end, they were right.”

— Rick R.

“I’ve worked with Eric over the past year and honestly can’t say enough good things about him. He’s one of the most thoughtful, hardworking, and ethical people I’ve ever met in real estate. From start to finish, Eric is professional, responsive, and truly cares about his clients.”

— Greg C.

“Based on (Janelle’s) recommendations and her contractor's cost estimate, I let her handle everything. Timelines were met, the condo update budget was spot-on and his condo received multiple offers in a week. If you are a busy person and do not have time to update your property yourself, travel to the realtor's office or just hate driving on busy freeways like me, working with the Boyenga team is for you.”

— Karrie Q.
