Oh my goodness, some of the features in this 1966 Las Vegas time capsule are just exquisite.
The house is a little older than those I usually feature. But I couldn’t resist. The more immersed I become in designs of the 1946-1966 era (where I draw the lines around “postwar”), the more I also find myself tip-toeing into the late 60s and yes, early 70s. It’s all so much fun.
Love this house!
Love the doors!
Love the door handles!
Love the door bell!
Love love love the bathroom with its metallic wallpaper. I want my hair to go grey…then white…then blue in this bathroom mirror!
And did I mention the pool? Has anyone done definitive research - does Las Vegas have THE GREATEST mid mod houses in the nation?

Hi Pam!
GREAT time capsule house.
Did you notice Rejuvenation has that same doorbell for sale in their antique porch hardware section? Here’s the link:

We’ve emailed a little back and forth, but I’m finally logged in so I can comment now.

Oh my stars and garters. The blue/green can-can lights make me ache. I NEED THEM. Love the vivid blue/greens in the 60s. Bathroom wallpaper: must rendezvous. I want to wear it.
The doorbell is cute/stunning, but I want to give someone like, 40 bucks for it. I will not give Rejuvenation 200 bones unless the exchange is 20 peg doorknobs and a general apology.
Courtney,
Keep your eye out on eBay; I’ve seen three of these same Nutone vintage door chimes come up for auction in the past three weeks or so—and none of them sold for over $20.
Right now there’s a similar one, a Sears woodgrain style, on eBay stores for around $25.
