Frank Lloyd Wright's Ennis House, 1924. A triumph of his California-inspired style, the Ennis House is the largest and boldest execution of Wright's iconic textile-block designs. Perfectly sited on a hill with sweeping views of the city to the ocean, this Mayan-inspired estate has undergone significant preservation efforts and offers a unique opportunity to its new owner to continue the home's restoration to its original brilliance. Light-filled interiors are enhanced by architectural details such as soaring wood-beamed ceilings, a window-lined loggia overlooking the pool, and an artful and flowing multi-tiered floor plan. Wright's signature appointments--prairie-style leaded art glass, mitered windows, and the best remaining example of one of only four glass mosaic-tile fireplaces--further distinguish this historic offering. The Ennis House is being offered for US$10495000 by Dilbeck Estates, Hilton & Hyland Real estate, with international marketing services provided by Christie's Great Estates. www.christiesgreatestates.com
