Have you ever wondered what it would be like to come home every day to a piece of history? If you happen to have an extra $700,000, you may not have to wonder much longer.
For the first time since its construction in 1956, the Keland House, designed by legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright, is on the market. Located in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, only a 30-minute drive from Milwaukee, the house is listed for $725,000.
A Midcentury Gem
If you are looking for a home both historic and charming, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better example. Frank Lloyd Wright is an icon of midcentury architecture, of which this home is a prime example. Like many midcentury and Usonian homes, it utilizes straight lines and sharp angles in its design.
The house also mixes materials, principally wood and exposed brick. The extensive wood paneling throughout the house makes for a natural and light interior.
But the midcentury details aren’t the only signature element of Frank Lloyd Wright to be found in this home.
Light And Lush
Wright’s buildings, mostly designed in a style he referred to as organic architecture, famously incorporated the surrounding natural environment, and this house is no exception. Large windows fill the house with natural light.
While the house is conveniently located between Milwaukee and Chicago, there is no lack of greenery. The home features a balcony, a covered outdoor walkway, and a lush courtyard.
A house like this doesn’t hit the market every day. This is an opportunity that you don’t want to miss!
