This International Style home dates to 1933, making it among the first modern homes in Cincinnati. Unfortunately original plans were lost due to a 1960s fire in the city's record department, but it's thought a dentist commissioned the home.

You won't want to miss the master bathroom's spitting sink -- a feature promoted at the time by plumbing manufacturers touting measurers to prevent tooth decay -- or the original Vitrolite glass tiles. Other vintage elements include checkerboard Masonite flooring in the living and dining rooms. The home's remodeled kitchen's  streamlined style is sympathetic to the modern streamline of the 1930s.

The Nov. 10, 2007 tour was a big success, thanks to Renee and Chris for their hospitality.
