A Frank Lloyd Wright-designed residence in Virginia Beach surfaced on the open market this spring with an asking price of $2.675 million. The house dates to 1959, and sits on a .6-acre waterfront lot; the property’s amenities list includes docks, deck and pier extending into Crystal Lake.

The house’s materials list includes glazed brick and cypress; the roof is copper; inside and out, it is suffused with the earth tones FLW favored, with muted reds and yellows topping the list and enhanced by accents, cabinetry, and paneling in various woods. The home’s architecture is expressed in the long, graceful curve that defines the living area; inside, the shared spaces are given a corner fireplace/fire feature as a centerpiece.

The long brushstroke of a curve opens the home to the lakeside patio from numerous doors. The tiered outdoor living area begins there, extends to a deck with a fire feature on a lower landing, and concludes at the dock and pier. An art studio is situated about midway along the journey between.

Other Frank Lloyd Wright homes to appear on the open market or disappear from it recently: the Freeman House, which went to a new owner for $1.8 million late this winter, and the Thaxton House in Houston, which changed hands for $2.7 million late last year.
