The structure blends nicely with the natural environment with its sweeping horizontal lines. With 5500 square-feet, the home includes four bathrooms and five bedrooms, as well as a recreation room and wine cellar.

The library and dining room are uniquely half-octagonal shaped and are lit by a band of geometric- patterned glass windows. Each bedroom features corner windows, a design component that Wright continued to incorporate in much of his residential work throughout his career.
