Preserving Mid-Century Modern in Sunnyvale: A Market Caught Between Past and Future

Sunnyvale holds one of the nation’s richest collections of Mid-Century Modern homes, with ~1,100 Eichlers that chart the full evolution of California Modern—from early Sunnyvale Manor to late, dramatic Primewood models. Today, these design icons face a classic Silicon Valley tension: land values that reward teardowns vs. the cultural and architectural value that drives the “Eichler premium.” Sunnyvale’s response blends policy and grassroots action—city Eichler Design Guidelines and resident-driven Single-Story Overlays—to protect low-slung streetscapes, privacy, and indoor-outdoor living. The path forward isn’t stasis, but sensitive renovation: upgrading systems, glazing, and layouts while honoring post-and-beam bones, atriums, and tongue-and-groove ceilings. Sunnyvale’s story is a national model for balancing preservation, market forces, and community identity in the tech age.
