We are taking a look at eight Frank Lloyd Wright homes. This Frank Lloyd Wright house built in 1906 known as the Gridley Residence is for sale and is one of the largest Prairie-style homes that Wright built.
It’s in Batavia, IL, a suburb about 30 miles west of Chicago. Listing says it’s updated with a new gourmet kitchen, media room, game room and ironwood veranda. Frank Lloyd Wright is considered to be the Greatest Architect in American history. If you want the keys to this historic gem, you probably want to look around, so let’s go.
Updated gourmet kitchen with custom cabinets, granite, designer tile backsplash, commercial range, 2 dishwashers-What!, warming drawer-ooh would love a warming drawer-, separate freezer & refrigerator (shown in the above photo), microwave, and 2 sinks.
The living room is next……………..
The woodwork details on the stairway
Finished lower level with media room, billiard room, and it says “huge laundry (also on 2nd floor.)”
I wanted to see more of the 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms of this Frank Lloyd Wright house, but they are not shown.
New asking price of $1, 290,000 on this original Frank Lloyd Wright home that sits on 2.3 acres and has 5,100 square feet. This is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a Frank Lloyd Wright home. There are 7 more Frank Lloyd Wright homes on the market per the Zillow Blog and they are:
Alice Millard House Pasadena, California $4,995,000.
William E. Martin House in Oak Park, Illinois $1,295,000. This Frank Lloyd Wright house reminds me of an airplane bungalow. I have a post about airplane bungalows called Bungalow O Bungalow.

Those Frank Lloyd Wright homes are so Beautiful, Just a little out of my price range.
You know my grandfather was named :
Frank Lloyd Wright and lived in Downer Grove, IL. on Elinor Ave. years ago.
No relation though.
Frank Lloyd Wright homes are out of the price range for lots of people especially these days. So cool that your grandfather was named Frank Lloyd Wrigt – love that.

I remember in High school I went on a field trip to chicago seeing some of his homes. I always rememered the odd dining table and chairs he had in his homes. The elongated dining chairs, The odd passage ways, some rooms didnt even make sense to me! I do not know for sure, but i might of seen the inside of William E. Martin House. I think his homes might be known for the odd dinning room with the elongated dining room chairs, But i am not sure! I am not sure!
