Single Family

Quietly nestled in the heart of Oak Park, among some of the finest and most photographed architecture in the world, is Frank Lloyd Wright's Laura Gale house. Exacting in proportion this house exemplifies Wrights Prairie School thought, which was to bring the outside in. Lovely views from any window, many of which are the famous art glass that his studio produced. The offset front entrance brings you into the reception room, a unique space to welcome guests before entering the main living areas. Walking past the massive brick chimney this space opens to the dining room and living room which then compels you out to the large cantilevered front porch to enjoy views of this magnificent one block street! Back in the house an efficient kitchen with beautiful views of the backyard and deck will delight any serious or casual cook. The second floor features 4 bedrooms and a studio/office. This precursor to Falling Water is not to be missed! Truly a walk to everything location! Property ID: 09625740
