From the Agent: "Discover this work of art designed by the renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright Jr., AIA. Nestled in the San Gabriel foothills, this Usonian-inspired home showcases Lloyd Wright’s geometric explorations of the time and is characterized by a harmonious blend of horizontal lines, ribbed concrete walls, expansive glass panels, and striking rooflines. The property’s open floor plan, with its unique shapes and oblique angles, is thoughtfully arranged into three distinct zones: the living space, kitchen/dining area, and bedroom wing. The diagonally scored concrete patio and original built-in barbecue provide an ideal setting for al fresco entertaining. The park-like yard also offers ample room for a pool.
