HOUSE HISTORY: This home is one of a few examples of Wright’s vision of affordable housing for families, built in 1917 from Mr. Wright’s plans by the Richards American System-Built Company. FLW authors and enthusiasts who have visited this home have commented about the current owners’ care in combining preservation with comfort.

Located near historic McGregor, Iowa, briefly one of Frank Lloyd Wright's childhood homes, it is an ideal get-away for enjoying the recreational and scenic opportunities of the Upper Mississippi River Valley. This is an affordable opportunity to own and preserve an historic FLW home.
