The Elizabeth and Rollin Furbeck House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1897, has been listed for sale for $1.98 million. This significant structure showcases Wright's early experimental designs and features notable aspects similar to his own home nearby. Despite initially being a wedding gift, the Furbecks lived there only briefly. The home is celebrated for its open floor plan and high-end details, attracting a global interest from buyers eager to connect with Wright's legacy. Listing agent Louise Nix highlighted its treasured architectural details, confirming its status as a notable work of the Prairie School style.
"The Elizabeth and Rollin Furbeck House is acclaimed as a major transitional, experimental and innovative work of America's most famous architect, Frank Lloyd Wright."
"With the hipped roof and horizontal lines, those are Wright details. He had been working for Louis Sullivan. This was that transitional period. It has a lot of Prairie elements."
