Rarely does a custom home of this caliber grace the market; now’s your chance to own a stunning piece of art and history! Carefully designed by Frank Weber, student of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie School of Architecture in Chicago, this spacious ranch embodies elements of California Arts & Crafts, Mediterranean, and Arabic architectural styles as well as FLW specific touches. Appreciate the compression and expansion of the entryway into an enormous livingroom with soaring domed ceilings, original murals, built-ins, leaded and stained glass windows, and an indoor cherub fountain in the sun soaked solarium. One of the first fully electric homes in Decatur there are operational original chandeliers and wall sconces throughout. Office can flex as den or even another bedroom if desired. Ample storage, additional parking in attached portico, heated breezeway, whole house generator, and kitchen floor heaters add to customization. If you want something truly special, Welcome Home!!
