Some homes reference the mid century era, and others have simply never left it. Designed and built by Weinberger in 1962, the D'Agostini House is an exceptional example of Detroit-area mid-century design, set along the quiet waters of a private, non-motorized lake in Shelby Township. Built in 1962 for its original owners, the home remained with the same family for more than six decades.
