Designed by the American architect, Frank Lloyd Wright
The Weisblat House is a rare and thoughtfully composed example of Frank Lloyd Wright’s residential work—an intimate composition where architecture, light, and daily life are woven into a unified whole. Designed during a pivotal period in Wright’s career, the home reflects his commitment to organic architecture, with spaces that flow naturally and materials chosen to age with quiet grace.
Offered for only the second time in its history, the Weisblat House has been carefully stewarded, honoring Wright’s original intent while remaining a living, livable home.

Designing a Usonian Ideal
Rooted in Frank Lloyd Wright’s Usonian principles, the Weisblat House was designed to support modern life through clarity, restraint, and purpose. Living spaces are organized with intention, guided by Wright’s belief that architecture should be practical, human-scaled, and enduring rather than ornamental.
Built-in elements, considered sightlines, and a seamless connection between interior and landscape reinforce a philosophy where function and beauty exist as one.

Designed in 1951, the Weisblat House is one of only four Frank Lloyd Wright–designed Usonian homes within The Acres, a 70-acre wooded enclave listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Constructed of concrete block and Honduran mahogany, the home features Wright’s signature horizontal lines, ribbon windows, and walls of glass that draw natural light deep into the interior. The open living and dining areas are anchored by a working fireplace, complemented by three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, two distinct living spaces, a screened porch, and tranquil views into the surrounding woodland and pond. Thoughtful infrastructure updates, an enclosed lap pool, and a private one-acre setting—along with an adjacent additional acre—offer modern comfort within an exceptionally preserved architectural setting just a short drive from Chicago, Detroit, and Grand Rapids.
The Greatest American Architect of all Time
Recognized by the American Institute of Architects as the greatest American architect of all time, Frank Lloyd Wright created some of the world’s most innovative spaces. He designed more than 1,100 architectural works, 532 of which were realized, and 380 of which remain standing today. Eight of his buildings have been designated UNESCO World Heritage sites, including New York’s Guggenheim Museum and his showcase house, Fallingwater, in western Pennsylvania.
The Weisblat House represents a rare intersection of architectural significance and thoughtful presentation. Positioned through Christie’s global network and local expertise, the property is offered to discerning buyers who recognize historic architecture not simply as property—but as cultural legacy.
