Ann Arbor Palmer House for Sale
For those of you who appreciate early US architecture, this Ann Arbor real estate opportunity could be a dream come true. Frank Lloyd Wright’s Palmer House recently came into the marketplace in Ann Arbor, Michigan. There is one catch - the house must be preserved in its original state. A preservation easement exists that will require any changes to be approved through the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy. Aside from this however, the home is a living masterpiece - a testament to some very special history.
The 2,000 sqft Palmer House is located on 1.5 acres of wooded hillside just outside Ann Arbor. Some architectural historians say it is one of his best pieces of work (with the likes of Fallingwater in Pittsburgh and the Robie House in Chicago). The home is tucked into its natural, woodsy setting yet a sunny interior blends indoor and outdoor elements perfectly. Not surprisingly, the Palmer’s have kept the house in pristine condition with decades of careful maintenance.
Wright was in his 80s when this home was built yet he put just as much attention to detail into this home as his many other early masterpieces. The Palmer family lived here for decades raising their children and entertaining friends. Aside from the spectacular natural detail of the interior, the exterior landscaping is also stunning - exuding natural tranquility. The $1.5 million dollar price tag includes the original furnishings, a collection of Wright documents and a tea house built in Wright’s style.
