All the Frank Lloyd Wright Homes That Hit the Market in 2023
Spoiler alert: Several of the landmark properties are still seeking buyers.
It’s not every day that a Frank Lloyd Wright property comes up for sale, but this year marked one for the books. Homes by the legendary architect popped up in Connecticut, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Oklahoma—and many listed for the first time in decades. Best of all, three out of five are are still on the market, and two of those residences are bundled in a single sale.
The Bogk House
"The Bogk House has the special distinction of being the only single-family residence designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in the city of Milwaukee," notes the agent. "Commissioned by alderman and entrepreneur Frederick C. Bogk in 1916, the house illustrates the visionary genius of Wright as a free-flowing, organically integrated whole."
