Introducing the Frank Lloyd Wright designed McCartney House. It was commissioned in 1949 by Ward & Helen McCartney & is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Located in Parkwyn Village, this Usonian home is a testament to Wright’s visionary approach to design, seamlessly blending nature with modern living. Discover the distinctive features that define this iconic residence, from its horizontal lines, vaulted ceilings and cantilevered roofs to the seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces. This is perhaps the most dramatic Usonian designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in Parkwyn and is only 1 of 2 homes in Michigan that Frank designed using the diamond shaped module. As Frank described it, this house is a geometric form built on a 4′ parallelogram grid. The home comes with some original furniture, blueprints & 2 paintings by Helen McCartney. The McCartney House, which sits on more than an acre of land and adjacent to the Asylum Lake Preserve, offers a serene retreat surrounded by nature while remaining close to urban conveniences and cultural attractions.
