In a significant milestone for architectural enthusiasts, one of Frank Lloyd Wright's grand residential creations has recently been sold in New Canaan, Connecticut. The house, which also served as Wright's residence, has found its fifth owner in almost seventy years, according to Mansion Global.

Constructed in 1955, the house provided Wright with a home while he was working on the iconic Guggenheim Museum in Manhattan. Coldwell Banker Realty agents Marsha Charles and Albert Safdie, who had the listing, believe that the sale sets a high benchmark for a Frank Lloyd Wright property. Safdie revealed to Mansion Global that the buyers, a passionate family from Brooklyn, are fervent fans of Wright and plan to allocate "millions of dollars" towards restoring and renovating the sprawling 15-room abode.

The buyers, whose identities remain undisclosed, exhibit a deep familiarity with the property and its history. They have already started the restoration process by moving into the guest house to oversee the project firsthand. Safdie commented, "What really struck me about the property, aside from the magnificent private landscape, is the otherworldly feel inside of the house. There is a symphony of light and shadows creating a magical feel throughout and a new dimension. The house follows the sun much like a sundial."

This historic transaction not only marks the passing of a legendary architectural treasure but also highlights the enduring appeal and influence of Frank Lloyd Wright's designs. With meticulous restoration plans underway, this iconic residence is set to regain its former glory, carrying on the legacy of its original creator.
