ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - If you've ever wanted to live in a home designed by a mid-century architect and restored by an internationally renowned design firm, here's your place. This St. Louis County home is under contract and up for sale for the first time since legendary mid-century modern architect Robert Elkington designed and built this home for himself.

The two-bedroom, two-and-a-half bathroom house was completed in 1948, and is located at 1520 Carmen Road in Manchester.
