Architecturally meaningful homes for sale worldwide.
Listed Architecture brings the international market for design-led residential property into one place.
A catalogue, not a manifesto.
The houses come first. Everything else on this site is here to help you find them.
Architecturally significant homes come to market constantly, and they are scattered — a modernist house in Portland, a converted chapel outside Antwerp, a Scharoun villa in Berlin, each on a different brokerage’s website, in a different language, indexed by no one.
Anyone interested in architecture rather than square footage has to already know where to look. Listed Architecture is the index that did not exist.
Specialist brokerages, first.
A small number of firms worldwide have built their businesses around architecture. Their current inventory forms the bulk of this catalogue, and their listings are credited and linked on every entry.
Exceptional homes found elsewhere are added when they meet the standard — a conventional agent’s listing, a private sale, a house nobody has noticed yet.
We sell nothing.
When we go further
Most houses enter the catalogue simply because they belong there. For selected properties we take a closer look at what makes the architecture work — and, where there is genuine opportunity, how a careful edit could strengthen it.
The focus may be material, spatial or architectural, but the starting point is always the same: understand what gives the house its character before deciding what to change.
Preserve the DNA. Edit for modern life.

Listed Architecture is an editorial project by Uncommon Standard, a residential design studio rooted in DNA, consideration and purpose.
The catalogue follows the houses. The studio applies the same judgement to residential design: understanding what gives a home its character, protecting what matters, and editing the rest with precision.
