Description and history
The house was built between 1900 and 1901 and its design is credited to Frank Lloyd Wright, although there is some dispute about this. The squarish design, double-hung windows and sizeable third-floor attic were not standard features of Wright-designed homes at this time, and some scholars believe this home may have actually been designed by William Adams himself, who served as a contractor on several Wright homes.[1][2]
The house was designated a Chicago landmark on June 16, 1994,[3] and a Chicago Landmark plaque is embedded into the ground in front of the home.[4]
In March 2014, the house was sold for $980,000 after being owned by the same family since 1952.[5]
